New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Award-winning pop trio KARMACODA has released their new album, Slow Down, Melt and Catch Fire on the 2nd July via Sola Musa Music. On the album, fans will find the mellow song 'Lo-Fi Girl'. A stunning collection of downtempo soundscapes greeting the mature pop styled vocals, the LP takes the listener into sultry, smokey lounges and eases them down into gentle oblivion.

The trio has received support from the likes of CLASH Magazine, Hotpress, Medium, Backseat Mafia, CelebMix, Son Of Marketing, VENTS Mag and Irish National radio RTÉ 2XM's Dan Hegarty, to name a few. The video for their single 'Make Me The One' won two 2021 Hermes Creative Awards (Platinum) and Unglued music video (Gold). In total, KARMACODA has gained just under 650 000 plays across streaming platforms and have had their creations placed in several film and TV scores.

The team is composed of Jessica Ford (vocals), founding member Brett Crockett (aka B. on vocals and producer) and Japanese-American multi-instrumentalist Eric Matsuno (bass and other unique elements). B., originally from Chicago, is currently based in San Francisco along with the rest of the band. Jessica spent 10 years living in Nashville, TN. While creating their otherworldly music, KARMACODA, turn to the variegated likes of Massive Attack, Radiohead, Florence And The Machine and Gotye. Between the lead singer's stunning vocals and the sophisticated production style, the album calls to a unique combination of Massive Attack, Radiohead, Frank Ocean, Glass Animals plus Sia, Adele, Hope Sandoval and Alicia Keys.

Carrying a romanticism that's only found in bygone eras, KARMACODA entice elegant tones into modernity with transformative production and gently caressing waves of synth and electronic progressions. 'Lo-Fi Girl' wraps the listener up in a cocoon of adoration as we're introduced to an unattainable love. At a look through the stained glass ad into the tangled mind of the 'Lo-Fi Girl' of your dreams.

Brett tells us his thoughts on the album: "Slow Down, Melt and Catch Fire is the most personal and meaningful record we've ever made. I think that's partly due to the events of 2020 and a great deal to do with how I responded to it. As a writer, musician and producer it felt like the world got more "real" and we needed to explore those feelings and see where it took us."

Jessica further elaborates: "We wrote these songs through phone voice recordings, email and text while COVID was happening. B. Would send me music ideas and tracks to write to that he had made. I would sift through them and listen looking for inspiration. Once I got some ideas going I would record my ideas on my iPhone while the track was playing on my computer and text them over to see if he liked where it was all going. If he did, I would continue working on the songs. The only song that was done before COVID was the first one, Dream On, which appropriately starts the album off. Once we got them all finished we went into the studio just the 2 of us, masked and in separate rooms and recorded all the vocals in one day."

"Highlights include the sensuous, romantic "Make Me the One," rippling with velvety textures flowing elegantly as Jessica's tones infuse the lyrics with ardent passionate colouration" - Medium
"While the production is gorgeous there's also a refinement to their songwriting, with those contoured edges applying a fresh intensity to the work." - CLASH Magazine
"While creating their otherworldly music, Karmacoda prioritise their lead singer Jessica Ford's stunning vocals and the sophisticated production style." -Hotpress
"Mixing up soul, electro and R&B in with the band's smart and sassy alt-pop means that Slow Down, Melt and Catch Fire is a smouldering smart slice of 2021 from beginning to end. From Opener Dream On, the band show they can handle melody, whilst giving emotive performances and wrapping it all up in smoky, wispy electro beats and synth lines." - Backseat Mafia
