Real high

"Further refining her sound and losing the murk that made her previous releases blog favorites, Real High finds Nite Jewel's Ramona Gonzalez easing just that much closer to the mainstream".

"Real High takes her analog synthesizer loving, lo-fi aesthetic and expresses it with hi-def precision and a hit maker's ear. The results are both fascinating and immensely satisfying: Avant R&B in the vein of FKA Twigs and Kelela with vocal hooks as sweet as gumdrops and bass lines as dense and springy as foam rubber. Each track is an excellent pop song and a complete sound environment, the sonic equivalent of a sensually immersive art installation".

"Ramona Gonzalez digs back into the '90s to find the right R&B moods for her latest album as Nite Jewel, her most focused work yet with many nods to new jack swing and Janet Jackson".

"Ah, den rene pop med blødt pumpende 1980'er-synth, bobler af luftige melodier og Janet Jacksons r'n'b-sødme fra 1990'erne. Men en håndfuld taktslag og lyden af en sammenkrøllet trækharmonika senere [står] det klart, at så enkelt er det ikke ... Det har stærk popappel på '2 Good 2 Be' og 'Had To Let Go', men samtidig en melankolsk egenart, der adskiller det fra alt mulig andet. Og holder til meget mere end en enkelt tur op og ned ad hitlisten".
