NOIA is a chameleonic entity, existing most comfortably and confidently in the gaps between genres and cultures. On her debut albumgisela, the Barcelona-bred, Brooklyn-based singer-producer glitches between ambient ruminations, field recordings, Rosalían flamenco-pop, and slippery electronic textures that hint at such styles as drum & bass and jungle before evaporating as quickly as they arrived. Similarly, she slides between languages, swimming through passages in Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, and English with equal enthusiasm. Standout track "verano adentro" (a Song You Need earlier this month) exists in an especially liminal space, with NOIA riding a beat that seems to be constantly dissolving beneath her as she yearns in calm desperation for a little more time.
