18 Jun 2006 // A review by billinnz
unique - with many styles - folk-pop, electronic ambient, laid back jazz, and some dance tracks

some reviews have said:

about dance track "Love Has Come Again" - features the almost whispered overtones of classical singer Sophie Moleta, and her exquisite voice...

about the laid back cover of "Buckets of Rain" - Moleta has a low-key, moody style .. beautiful voice and slow, haunting delivery.

about "Untie Me" tracks - Sublime - purely simply gorgeous - exquisite vocals - nothing but aural beauty awaiting you.

Sophie Moleta is a singer, songwriter, composer and music teacher - born in Wellington New Zealand, but growing up mainly in Perth Western Australia with a lot of time travelling as a child, mainly in Europe. Her non-classical music career started as a backing vocalist and percussionist with a punk/ rock group - The Brautigans in Perth. Her music career then led to France, the UK, Australia and New Zealand in various combinations.

Her first main album was Trust - self-released, followed by a Telescopic Records release of the Dive album in France. Two tracks from Dive were included in the soundtrack to the French movie Les Jolies Choses. Since then there have been numbers of other self-released albums, and collaborations with musicians in Jersey, the UK, the USA, Australia, Sweden and New Zealand. One dance single Love Has Come Again with Human Movement's Marc Mitchell has been included on more than 25 dance compilation albums.

Recent albums included the 2004 CD What Happened In Fremantle? with Swede David Harenstam, and the 2005 USA CD Untie Me with the American Holmes Ives. In addition a live concert from Singapore was released as Live at LaSalle in latter 2005.
