Zella Day
 

Not sure why I've never heard of this cute artist, but I have to say I'm totally head over heels. From what I have heard so far, she is very, very, very interesting. Maybe she's still kind of under the radar since she doesn't even have a wikipedia article yet?

So far she is reminding me of something like a dark mix of Katy Perry and Lana del Rey? I don't think she belongs in the pop section of the forum but maybe she's not a perfect fit in electronica, either. Give her a listen and tell me what you think:



This is her most recently released track, VERY catchy and very much stuck in my head. My first experience with it was through this Vanic remix, however:



I still really like and possibly prefer the Vanic version. It's also way more popular on youtube right now. Awesome.



This is an older song of hers but just as intriguing

Has anyone else seen or heard her stuff? Would like to know why she hasn't reach the level of fame I would expect. Maybe she's too vague/similar to other performers who have broken through in this genre? For those who want more, here's a quick link to her tumblr.

Enjoy xx

Checking her out now :)

I don't know anything about your taste in women, Goofle, but she's pretty adorable, amirite?

^_~

She is. But there's something missing for me musically speaking. I think she's a little nondescript.

I think your right about the nondescript thing. Can't seem to find any info about her either, which could mean she does not write her own music. I am officially addicted to that Vanic remix now though. Uff.

I like the stream-of-words lyrics that Hypnotic opens with and she certainly does the sexy voice well on Sweet Orphelia. No expert myself, I thought my son might like it, but his only comment was, "Yeah, it´s ok .... now let´s listen to Latch by Disclosure", which suggests that his first impression wasn´t far removed from Goofle´s.

Yeah. Latch is far better than anything I have heard from Zella (not saying she is bad, she's decent).

This is the best version of latch though:

^ Thanks, Goofle. I´ll pass that on to my son and see if I score any Cool points!

Your son has good taste, Lisna!! :D
