Benji Sedoc flows with smooth soul single

Camilla Luna – Lost & Found

Andy Collins by Andy Collins

As I listen to the debut album from Norwegian singer Camilla Luna – Lost & Found, I’m clicking around like a demented gamer trying to find any additional information about the songs. In particular the name of the producer.

After some detective work, Sherlock here discovers its BHLB.

The beat-maker deserves special credit as he/she underscores the albums’ 13 tracks with creeping synth movements and hypnotic beats.

From the black/white sketched cover art you enter into Camilla’s world with a sense of intrigue and trepidation, though it quickly dispels as you hear Camillas warm ‘Baduesque’ tones on Why Can’t We.

This album isn’t neo-soul though, and throughout, a darker ‘gothic’ R&B envelops you with tracks like; The One, Get Out, and I Just realised. It’s dark and deep. Is there such a thing as Gothic Soul or has Camilla started something new?

There’s also an overriding sense of experimentation as the combined elements in Camilla’s musical laboratory produces variable results. At times the Norwegian songstress’s raspy, enigmatic vocals almost compete with the arrangements.

The albums final two tracks resonated with me: Stronger and Reach Out. The last track, in particular, is soulful, sensual and an ideal laid-back vibe for a dimly lit setting.

The Review

3 Score

Excellent production on a 'Gothic Soul' debut.
