New single Review Edei In My Bed

In My Bed is Edie’s first single taken from her debut album, which is due in the autumn. Edei’s been working with the team that developed Joss Stone for a couple of years, and was support on Girl’s Aloud arena tour. 

This is deceptively upbeat jaunty song which perfectly showcases Edei’s vocal talents. It’s pop, but it’s laced with rhythms and brass that actually give it a jazzier/funkier texture. Edei’s voice is pretty raw at times, but is drenched with such soulful emotion, that it infuses the song with a darker edge that only comes to the fore after several listens. 

The remixes are probably a sop for the club circuit and of are of passing interest only. The Dave Aude remix sounds like a Madonna Confessions on Dance Floor offcut, while the Almighty Radio mix isn’t, at all.
