New Music To Know: Laura Mvula’s Unexpected World Of ‘Orchestral Soul’

mreal197 — Thu, 23 May 2013 19:07:04 +0000

About thirty seconds into her debut single, “She,” Laura Mvula introduces a choir. And the vocal arrangement is like the sun coming out. It’s reminiscent of what the Beach Boys did, but filtered by way of a black gospel choir of the best singers you could imagine. Behind Mvula and her choir, a chiming keyboard melody floats while drumbeats push things along. It is at once primal and delicate.

This is a glimpse into the unexpected world of U.K. singer-songwriter Laura Mvula. Unexpected because the tools she’s working with to create musical soundscapes are not in fashion right now. In an interview with Radio.com, she described her music as “orchestral soul” and explained her music making process.

Her debut album, Sing To The Moon, just saw its U.S. release on May 14, following a March release across the pond. Mvula says she drew inspiration for the album from a number of places: her training in classical music and composition, gospel music and the religious Caribbean community in the U.K., as well as reggae, blues and soul. She used the piano to improvise her compositions, noting, “I didn’t know any rules.”

Mvula is currently touring the U.S., with more dates in Europe to follow.

Style Files: Beyoncé Curates Rent The Runway Boutique

mreal197 — Thu, 23 May 2013 15:58:47 +0000

Since its launch, Rent the Runway has been a savior for cash-strapped fashion obsessives. The site have paired up with Beyoncé to curate a boutique of her favorite designer dresses — making Beyoncé your personal high fashion stylist. While the site’s copy (“We promise they will make him want to put a ring on it”) is certainly over the top, the selections will indeed make you feel like a diva.

Bey’s picks are a mish-mash of things you might expect her to wear on-stage as Mrs. Carter for her current world tour, dresses she could rock on a beach, and red carpet wear. Her boutique choices include designs from Halston Heritage, Badgley Mischka, Versace, Opening Ceremony, Erin Fetherston — and, surprisingly, a Kate Spade chiffon and sparkles t-shirt dress even makes an appearance. The overarching theme seems to be: short and sparkly just like her Julien Macdonald-designed tour costumes.

In addition to the dresses, Beyoncé curated some of her favorite accessories, including a Rebecca Minkoff off-white clutch, Kenneth Jay Lane ruby drop earrings and a Lulu Frost silver and crystal cuff.

Visit Radio.com to see Beyoncé’s best selections.
