"This album is one of the most massive, soulful and atmospheric chill-outs ever committed to a piece of plastic. This record has the depth and character of Jem, with a precious vocal reminiscent of Adele. You just don't find a combination like that very often.
Official Rating
Rated 4.5 out of 5"

Along comes Defend The Melody and the genius behind it Carolyn Parry. I've never heard nothing quite like it. She's got a really great voice wrapped around such beautiful dreamy music. Your taken to such a beautiful mysterious place. It part ambience and part atmospheric. It helps that she have such a talent group of musos behind. This album is quite simply a masterpiece, well produced and sung. You need this in your collection. One of the most unique artists to come out of Melbourne in a long time.
