Seamlessly blending jazz, indie, and electronic textures, Indira May paints her sonic landscapes with the precision of a poet and the daring of an avant-garde artist through her new EP, Imaginary Problems. Each track on this five-song EP is a world unto itself, crackling with creativity and raw emotional resonance. The opening track ‘don’t feed the sharks’ plunges listeners into a shimmering sea of psychedelic synth-pop, where Indira’s sultry vocals and hypnotic melodies ripple like moonlight on dark water. This is followed by ‘childsplay’, a haunting exploration of chronic illness, its eerie production and tender lyricism laying bare the complexities of pain and resilience.
‘STOP’ is an emotional hurricane, swirling with dub-inspired horns and whispered vulnerability, while the playful ‘dance tonight’ channels quirky bossa nova charm with unapologetic wit and punchy brass. The closing track ‘you & charlie’ is a gut-wrenching ballad on addiction, weaving a tapestry of heartache and hope through its soulful storytelling. With Imaginary Problems, Indira May crafts a sound as daring and unclassifiable as it is unforgettable.
