Låpsley
Outline
Låpsley (Holly Lapsley Fletcher) is a singer-songwriter who works in a style that combines pop and electronic music and mood pieces operating at lower gears with sparse instrumentation. Her background in classical music colors some of her songwriting. Her music is built around keyboards, specifically electric and acoustic pianos, backed by electronic percussion, and a strong, commanding voice that she adds to the overall texture. The songs are more emotive, reflective, personal and lyrical rather than melodic or harmonic. Her arrangements allow a lot of space between her musical phrases so that even when she ups the tempo, the music still sounds slowed down and deliberate.

Urban electronic music that may be best experienced in solitude.
