RUELLE DEEP END

Tennessee electronic artist Ruelle is someone we wish we'd kept a closer eye on, because looking back on her SoundCloud uploads over the past year, it seems we've missed some real gems. One thing's for sure, her latest offering, 'Deep End', will make a lot of people who have let Ruelle fly under the radar - like us - sit up and take notice. You can definitely see how Ruelle's tracks have been picked up for a slew of big name US TV productions. Take 'Deep End', where her crystalline tones are woven around stormy programmed beats and thudding piano chords, it's the perfect balance of otherworldly, creeping electronica and anthemic pop. Imagine that final emotive powerhouse of a chorus filtering over the climax to just about any high-school/rich kids drama where one of the cast is in way over his/her head. Maybe it's drugs, maybe they've been cheating. Probably both. Ruelle has all the bases covered. - DC
