Katie Noir Delivers A Wildly Commanding, Deeply Meaningful LP With 'What Is Unseen Still Exists' And Leaves No Creative Boundary Untouched
We found 'What Is Unseen Still Exists' by Katie Noir to be a wildly commanding album. We were fascinated by the construct of her emotional state being turned into a musical concept, which translated into something truly meaningful. As we exist in this world, each of us feels different through each hour of the day, and Katie Noir captured those feelings, then turned them into music so you can experience her life if you want, or connect yourself by plugging into the song that matches your moment in the day. It's brilliant and like nothing we have ever experienced before, and we want you to hear it too.
"Bitches Road" is the entry point to this beautiful creation, and its power is indicative of this artist's abilities and definitely sets the tone. Holding back nothing and letting us know "everybody talks too much" with her incredible cadence and delivery, this feels like a reckoning in real time. But it doesn't end there. With a bright and glowing delivery, she also shows she can let the notes soar and carry the beats directly into your heart. The rolling bassline powered this performance and drove her vocals in a way we absolutely loved.
When we hear the lyrics:
“Cut you off without goodbye”
It's exhilarating. Katie Noir embodies everything we wish we were and becomes the hero that saves our mental health. We loved the compelling tone she set for the rest of the album with this track.
Katie Noir’s 'What Is Unseen Still Exists' Is A Captivating, Inspiring, And Deeply Meaningful LP That Deserves A Clean-Sweep Playlist Add
"Soft Again (Don't Quote Me On That)" is like a whole transformation, and it was everything we needed. Dynamic and commanding, she fills us up with that positive, danceable energy. The beats make the music rise and swell like a tidal wave, and this was actually really impressive. Then, riding this beat like a superhero surfer, her vocals go from rapid fire rap styled to edited, then to soulful and gliding. Vocally, she delivers a masterclass in performance ability. Honestly, there's no way to get enough of Katie Noir.
"Until Soon." We just weren't prepared for this. Katie Noir becomes the most tender and lovely songstress, serenading her way right into our hearts. This incredible finale proved that there is no creative boundary Katie Noir cannot conquer. She is a captivating performer, and there is no doubt she's ready for the majors.
This entire LP is one standout after another. Playlist it in one clean sweep and enjoy the ride. You will not regret this one.
