roberta: objects of affection ep

See this content in the original post

Defying conventional norms in the dance music realm, Roberta's true identity and persona remain veiled in mystery. Unperturbed by the pressures of social media and internet chatter, she remains focused solely on her craft—the music being her sole priority, everything else fades away in insignificance. Following up on a supreme-smooth release titled Your Touch on Night Moves Records, Roberta keeps driving us through 2023 with another high-karat-gold that is up there together with our favorite releases of 2023. Via Sole Aspect, she presents Objects of Affection EP, inspired by the late great Motor City don that is Mike Huckaby - which is possible to clearly identify across three groovy, jazzy, soulful tracks in the record.

Opener “Excursions” is as smoky as they come with gorgeous but muted chords that bring warmth and diffuse light to the cuddly-deep drums and delicate percussive sprinkles. “Forever Love” has a jazzy flute bursting out the mix next to more prominent drums while “Love Mosaic” is a delightfully smooth and sultry late-night charmer with gorgeous soulful vocals and steamy sax lines. A classy EP all round as per usual in Roberta’s golden discography. Objects of Affection EP is available on vinyl.
