The influx of attitude-filled, female songstresses shows no sign of letting-up as Phlo Finister makes her mark, brooding and infectious as her peers.
Now based in London, her Los Angeles background is wonderfully audible, evoking the sultry darkness of BANKS, but the industrial rhythms of MØ and all the vocal seduction of a Knowles sister. It’s a track that ticks the boxes then, with its cold, sexual theme juxtaposed by a sweeping catching chorus.
Check into ‘Hotel Miami’ below, you won’t be checking-out for the foreseeable.
