British-Japanese artist Miso Extra's debut album, Earcandy, emerged out of a desire for pure pleasure. Born in Hong Kong and raised in Buckinghamshire, northwest of London, the singer has shaped her record into a culinary concept in which she reflects her multicultural upbringing. Based on umami, the fifth taste, the album contains a collection of short, two or three-minute tracks that she intriguingly relates to plates of tapas.
Mixed into the sauce there's a lot of R&B inspiration, throwing us back to the golden age of the '90s and the finesse of Aaliyah and Janet Jackson. So effortlessly does she roll these influences out, it's almost as if Miso Extra spent her youth singing their hooks in the shower, as heard on the tracks "Slow Down" (co-written by DJ Boring), "Pop" or the unstoppable "Good Kisses," featuring Metronomy. On "Certified," she displays the same ease around a more electro production, and even crosses into emo territory at times ("Done"). The album ends on a more organic note, with the soulful title track, which perfectly sums up this sweet summer record. And the cherry on top; it’s been awarded a Qobuzissime! © Smaël Bouaici/Qobuz
