Album Review: Dan Bodan - Soft

Guido Farnell
StarStarStar

"Soft delivers Bodan’s take on dreamy intimate soultronica."

Following up on his 2011 debut Nudity And Atrocity, Dan Bodan continues to blow delicate bubbles of wistful heartfelt songs our way.

Wearing his heart on his sleeve, Bodan lets loose a stream of tender emotional lyrics that have a somewhat poetic twist. His intimate lyrics are accompanied by light layers of experimental pastel-coloured and soft synths. Soft delivers Bodan’s take on dreamy intimate soultronica which should draw plenty of comparison to acts like Deptford Goth and even James Blake.
