Atmospheric and compelling - and nothing at all to do with a chocolate bar as its name may erroneously suggest - 'Tangerine Flake' is the debut of London-based singer Bo Rocha.
If Rocha's sweetly evocative vocal tone sounds at all familiar that's because she is perhaps better known as Kate Sproule, the previous supplier of front person duties with the much praised dreamfolk outfit Mt. Wolf.
Taking its title from 'The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby', a Tom Wolfe essay collection, published in 1965, 'Tangerine Flake' is an accomplished first step; marked out with distorted pop hooks and lustrous synth notes, interwoven with Rocha's vocal inflection in a bed of exiguous electro.
