Kelsie Kimberlin - Clumsy Girl
Kelsie Kimberlin is not new to the music scene, with her expert vocals and her vast sensibility of vocal expression. Her latest release, Clumsy Girl, is yet another exploration into the pop experimental genre. Kelsie is a sonic explorer; her music is an ecology of itself. She creates landscapes and skys of her own and paints these worlds with musical colors! With every release, she only gets better and better, not shying away from challenging herself and making sure she stays true to her roots. This latest release seems to be a genre intersection between techno, pop, goth, and sunshine-lollipop. This exquisite buffet of themes and textures is heaven to the ears, and only Kelsie can bring that out. She seems to have a formula for being vulnerable even between beats that get your feet grooving. The track is an ode to oneself and the ability to be able to pull yourself out of a funk and an ode to the friendship that helps. The amount of layering she has done sonically, lyrically, and thematically is delicious; it can send a literary nerd into heat. It is an interesting selection of samples she has used. She has used an almost marching techno run that you can imagine in a film like Terminator, but imagine a factory that dishes out only party Barbie that depends on her party friends a little too much. "Clumsy Girl" is not just a song; it is a carefully crafted and arranged piece of art that has many narratives from the lyrics to the BGM. The video is surprisingly different from the song alone, she gives us an entirely different experience. If you believe in nuanced writing, then Kelsie Kimberlin is your girl.
