quinn

In an industry often dominated by bold, upfront, and instantly gratifying sounds, quinn emerges as a refreshing anomaly with her dense, dark, and enigmatic musical offerings. Her latest album marks a significant departure from her previous work, presenting a collection of tracks that exude a sense of absolution, soulfulness, and introspection. It's a departure that feels both courageous and authentic, demonstrating quinn's willingness to evolve creatively and explore new sonic territories. The decision to embrace an abstract hip-hop/R&B/sound collage style in this album seems to be a natural fit for quinn, infusing the music with a newfound warmth, depth, and immediacy while still allowing her to retain her signature humor and penchant for experimentation. While the influence of artists like Madlib, Quasimoto, Knxwledge, and Earl is evident in the production and delivery, quinn manages to weave these influences together seamlessly, resulting in a sound that is distinctly her own. Some listeners may find fault with the album's sequencing, citing the inclusion of random snippets of talking and vocals as disruptive. However, these elements contribute to the album's overall charm, giving it a raw, unfiltered quality akin to flipping through the pages of a personal sketchbook. It's a choice that adds to the album's authenticity and serves as a reminder of quinn's uncompromising artistic vision. Despite any initial skepticism, there's a sense of excitement and anticipation for what the future holds for quinn and her evolving musical journey.
