FABIANA PALLADINO – IN THE FIRE
2024-04-08Having been an in demand songwriter and producer since 2011, Fabiana Palladino has the poise of a vanguard artist on her selftitled debut. Sleek, modernist synthpop balladry meets slick funk and R&B shuffles and silky feather soft harmonies, tapping into the Paul Institute oeuvre with a feature from Jai himself on the dazzling synths and sweet, slow limbering drum machines of ‘I Care’. Fresh air bursts in between syrupy guitar licks on ‘Can You Look In The Mirror?’, while expertly crafted layers fill the life affirming new wave grooves of ‘Shoulda’, complete with catchy riffs, cowbell hits, and insatiable pop earworms.
