'Faint of Heart' by Millie Blooms

'Faint of Heart' is the latest single from musician Millie Blooms (also known as Emily Fry formerly from the band Digital Criminals). Millie's latest single is a quirky track that incorporates layered vocals and hip-hop influences; a unique song that bursts with creativity and colourful production.

The mallet and layered harmonies at the beginning of the track grabs the listener and moves into a rapped verse that features tight vocals and bold lyricism. The minimalistic production is reminiscent of works by New Zealand musician Kimbra, with the 90s inspired hip-hop rhythm drawing inspiration from songs like '90s Music'. A highlight from the track are the gorgeous vocal harmonies that creates a call and response with the main vocal line, adding groove in the instrumental that hooks and engages the listener from start to finish. What I love about this track is how Millie's style of production and songwriting is unpredictable, keeping the listener in constant anticipation for the next verse. 'Faint of Heart' is a bold and unique track that blends different genres and textures, an exciting single that firmly places Millie Blooms as a versatile artist.
