Fact #117645

You may know singer-songwriter Emma Louise best from the Wankelnut remix My Head Is A Jungle which recently did well in the charts, or from her original version of the same track, entitled Jungle, which appeared in a recent Black Opium perfume ad on the telly. Either way, you should have noticed that this 23 year old Australian who learned her craft busking in the streets of Brisbane, and honed it making tunes on her bedroom computer, is remarkably talented. Check her use of found vocal samples on Atlas Eyes, or her minimalist synth-lines on 17 Hours, and it’s impossible not to conclude that anyone who ever loved St. Etienne or Everything But The Girl or Lights will soon fall under her spell. Don’t wait. Get it now.
