British pop’s fastest rising star Chloë Howl dropped her No Strings EP earlier this week.
The record features the title-track, and its brace of remixes – one of which from fellow Best Fit favourite, Brolin – as well as this sparkling, bolshy cut, ‘How Proud’. Perhaps not her hookiest tune, there’s no earwormy bass lick a la ‘No Strings’, but ‘How Proud’ still toes Chloë’s cheeky lyrical line with the youngster scathingly intoning, ‘Ooh you’re picture perfect, you’re two-dimensional,’ over oscillating waves of synth and choppy snares. Don’t even think about trying to fool this girl, she’s already onto you.
Download the No Strings EP here and catch Chloë at London’s Dingwalls on 21 November.
