Description Hide Show Genevieve Artadis Forever Forever feels like a love letter to being joyfully, curiously alive. The Los Angeles singer and composer, best known as one half of KNOWER with Louis Cole, sharpens her songcraft here while keeping that bright, mischievous spirit that first drew so many of us in. It arrived in 2023 on Flying Lotuss Brainfeeder, a label that has long given adventurous pop and jazz the room to breathe. This record takes that freedom and runs with it, but never loses sight of melody. What hits first is the clarity. Artadi layers vocals like a patient architect, building harmonies that interlock with a clean click, then letting them bloom into something tender. The rhythms stay nimble, shifting feel without turning showy, and the production is tidy but warm, the kind of mix that lets a small synth figure or handclap sit exactly where it should. You can tell she has spent years navigating complex grooves, yet she uses that skill to serve the songs rather than show off. Hooks land and stick. Lines curl back on themselves in sneaky ways. You get a lot of brain food, but you also get earworms you will hum on the tram. There is a real sense of conversation between her voice and the band. Parts tumble and pass ideas around, then pull back for a breath. One minute it is a buoyant skip, the next it is a small, sighing harmony that feels like a private aside. Artadi often treats her voice as a rhythm instrument, clipping syllables into the pocket, then opening up into long phrases that glide across the barline. It is playful and exact, and it does not tip into fussiness. If you have followed KNOWERs tightrope dance between jazz chops and pop sparkle, that balance will feel familiar, but the tone here is more intimate, even a touch reflective. The writing carries a disarming honesty. Themes of self belief, doubt, and connection thread through the record without leaning on grand statements. She tends to set complex thoughts in everyday language, then lets harmony do the heavy lifting. A track will float on a featherlight progression before a line drops in that makes you sit up. There is also plenty of levity, the kind of sly turns that remind you she is having fun. That mix keeps the album feeling human. You hear a restless mind, but you also hear someone who just loves the sound of instruments and voices moving through space together. It sounds great loud on speakers, and even better on the couch with the good headphones. Quiet details reward repeat listens. A harmony will slide in a semitone lower than you expect. A chord will flash a surprising colour, then resolve with a small smile. The sequencing supports that. The record flows in arcs rather than peaks and valleys, the kind of pacing that makes side A then side B feel like distinct journeys when you cue up the Forever Forever vinyl. On wax, the low end is tidy and the vocal stacks have a lovely sheen. If you have been hunting for Genevieve Artadi vinyl, this one is a no brainer, and it pairs neatly on the shelf with her earlier Brainfeeder release Dizzy Strange Summer. A quick nod to context. Brainfeeders catalogue has long blurred lines between beat scene textures, jazz harmony, and pop instinct, and Forever Forever sits comfortably in that lineage while carving its own lane. Artadis writing is less about virtuosic fireworks and more about deep musical empathy. It makes sense that fans who came in through KNOWERs wild live videos have stuck around. The same curiosity is here, tuned to songs you can carry around for months. If you shop local, ask your favourite Melbourne record store to spin a copy and feel how the grooves sit in the room. If you prefer to buy Genevieve Artadi records online, most shops that specialise in new indie and jazz-leaning pop will have it, and you will often find other Genevieve Artadi albums on vinyl nearby. It has become a quiet staple in vinyl records Australia circles for good reason. Forever Forever is one of those records that brightens an afternoon without losing depth. Play it on a drizzly arvo and it turns the windows into a cinema screen. Play it before heading out and you will walk a little lighter. It is clever, but it is also kind, and the world is better for it. Product Reviews Hide Show Write a Review
