Capricorn sun

"Created with live music in mind, the London-based artist, producer and DJ's debut album transforms lockdown frustration into gradual catharsis ... It's rare that an electronic album manages to tell such a strong story while eliciting so many different emotions. Impressively balancing meditative calmness ('Time') with rave euphoria (the guitar-led 'Running'), 'Capricorn Sun' proves that TSHA really is in a league of her own".

"Fast-rising London producer and DJ TSHA followed several singles, a Fabric Presents mix and a Diplo collaboration with Capricorn Sun, her full-length debut for Ninja Tune. Since her first songs appeared in 2018, her music has become increasingly complex and emotive, incorporating more vocals, acoustic instruments, and pop hooks into her vibrant dance tracks ... her euphoric, festival-friendly music cross-stitches elements of Afro-house, progressive house, rave, and R&B. While generally sunny and celebratory, the album is shaded with feelings of heartache and anxiety, inspired by personal issues, friends and family members, and club closure due to pandemic lockdown ... Well-sequenced and brimming with heartfelt energy, Capricorn Sun is an inspired effort".

"The UK producer casually throws house, UK garage, R&B, pop, and breakbeats into varied songs that are as emotionally relatable as they are instinctively danceable ... The mix-friendly extended intros and lengthy instrumental passages that dominate many dance albums are replaced here by songs that make their mark in four glorious minutes, then leave triumphantly. This relentless buoyancy ends up a little overwhelming, occasionally spilling into blandness over the album's 12 songs. But this is easily overlooked among the spell of familiarity that TSHA has spun".
