I don't frequently review artists from the "pop" genre. However, to review pop artist Al-x as simply "pop" would be doing her a great disservice. Al-x covers the spectrum of high energy songs, electronica, dance (as in, her tracks are great to dance to, and she dances as part of her live performances), a touching acoustic ballads that make listeners take time to reflect.
So without further hesitation, here is the premier of Al-x's new video, Always:
In the world of Al-x, pop music covers an entire spectrum of moods, and she delivers unapologetically, much to my (and many others') delight. Al-x brings much more than amazing composition that works hand-in-hand with her lyrics - she dances and plays guitar. In other words, she is a force to be reckoned with - combining emotional, intellectual, physical, talents with (let me wax a little paradoxical here) untamed precision.
Al-x has an international following, and in drawing from her skills as a singer/songwriter/dancer, Al-x is able to tap those universal feelings and bring everyone together with her songs.
It has always been that, if I wanted to find songs that reflected changes in my own feelings or thoughts, I would have to build playlists and dig through a bunch of artists to find what I need - and by that time, things have passed. It can be very frustrating. With Al-x's music, I get all of that, and she always has something new just over the horizon.
You can get all of her music through iTunes, CDBaby and on the Official Al-x Site. To find out the latest news about Al-X, such a show dates, upcoming singles, videos, and more, you can follow her on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
