Actress, songwriter and singer, Anna Renee, has released the single , “What You Seek”, exquisitely produced by Stephen Lukach and Daniel Rojas. Anna approaches music in a way that is both sensually pleasurable and exploratory, running through a pop filter. On this track she uses her voice like another instrument, weaving a rich, almost ethereal, and emotional tune, thick with rhythm and melody.
Coupled with impressive writing talents – along with Daniel Rojas, Stephen Lukach and Cazz Brindis – and her ear for melody, Anna Renee’s voice is a potent weapon. Her voice is the key component of her musical arsenal, and she does all kinds of things with it. Her voice is actually remarkably versatile too – she often sings in a pretty high register, or in a breathy whimper on this track, which is probably going to appeal to a broad audience.
Overall, “What You Seek” is a truly powerful and memorable listening experience.
Anna Renee’s streamlined approach to making music isn’t particularly sui generis, many artists are frequently being described as eclectic now, but few are able to construct a distinctive aesthetic out of the disparate influences they peddle. That’s the main strength of Anna, and in particular of this track, “What You Seek” has elements of familiarity but none of them feel indebted to only one particular genre.
The track features piano notes, synth sounds, hi hat cymbals, a strummed guitar, a slamming beat, a growling bass line and Anna Renee’s playfully vocals, which are all introduced within the first 30 seconds of the song and then alternated in various forms throughout its playing time.
It may sound a little sporadic on paper, but it works really well by not just offering you a cornucopia of delights but introducing these elements at just the right time to keep you engaged and eager to hear what’s coming next. It is another obvious treat too, with its electro-ambient permutations and Anna’s sweet voice, sending you off to some futuristic utopia.
This music will be for everybody I hasten to add, regardless of genre, as most will find Anna Renee’s delicate patchwork of sounds to be adorable at times, but also extremely powerful. You will find this a charming foray into an alternative pop wonderland that feels pleasantly familiar yet refreshingly novel.
“What You Seek” is ethereal and almost meditative with haunting vocals layered over a trance inducing rhythm. Explained in in two simple words, this track is – ‘devastatingly gorgeous’. And you can apply that description to both the singer, and the song!
