Things Other People Say:

Last Year’s Girl: “Subtle barefoot electronica switches between the eerie fragility of a porcelain doll and a kickass superstar computer game character (the one all the boys have a crush on, of course).”

Midwinter Picnic: “Hard partying Hackney electro princess brings stripped down beats and brilliant melodies.”

Blang: “Playful biotechfolkmusik that time-travels in a hollow tube between nursery room pianos, hologram vocals and Warped atmospherics.”

Handsome Bluesbunny: “Whilst not generally fond of bedsit electronica, I have to admit that there was something endearing about Anna Madeleine’s songs of urban misanthropy and obsession that were held together with sellotape, simple loops and – again at odds with her tormented words – a genuine warmth.”

Things More Other People Say:

“She’s got brass balls.”

“The sexiest person I’ve toured with.”

“It reminded me of an episode of the Mighty Boosh – the only thing she was missing was a shiny silver jumpsuit.”

“A lot weirder than she looks.”
