Nameless [Digipak], Dominique Fils-Aimé, CD

Dominique Fils-Aimé opens her debut full length album, "Nameless", with an intimate vocal solo. One melody finds accompaniment with another-they multiply, creating a family of sound, related but independent. She crafts what sounds like an entire band out of layered vocals, establishing a minimalistic approach early on. Gradually, she brings in selective instrumentation balanced with a blend of intriguing vocal harmonies. Her voice glides over the track, guiding the music, grounding her body of work in a refreshingly human quality.
