Review

Buckle up for Aurora's latest ride, "What Happened to the Heart?" – a mixtape for the soul's rumspringa, dropping on June 7, 2024. Like a chameleon caught in a disco ball, it swings from indie pop and techno to folky fields and back with heart-pounding grace. 16 tracks stand on their own quirky-feet, with rebellious anthems like "Your Blood" and "The Conflict of the Mind" laying the emotional groundwork. Then you've got "To Be Alright" and "Starvation," which groove along disco lanes with a touch of psychedelic flair. A playlist you’d send to the aliens alongside a Spotify Premium gift card.

With lyrics that wrench you out of your comfort zone and throw you under capitalism’s icy shadow, Aurora’s not pulling any punches. Her words skate and scythe through spiritual droughts and environmental cries for help, as raw as they come. Collaborating with talents like Ane Brun and Tom Rowlands, the tracks "My Name" and "The Dark Dresses Lightly" explore the layers of trauma that us humans wrap ourselves in. The album's riffs and reflections hit home, earning much hype from those in the know, cementing another artistic W for Aurora. Who’d have thought saving the world could sound this good? - Jamie
