Starchild & The New Romantic - Crucial

Review by Nick Roseblade

Full of contemporary production and composition, as you’d expect given Cook’s crucial CV»

Describing his songs as "Champion Music for the Heartbroken," Starchild has adopted the work methods of one of his heroes, Prince, writing and playing every note, and demonstrating a mastery of a host of genres and sounds. He's absorbed a host of artists - "Everyone from Duke Ellington and Marvin Gaye to Mya, Dru Hill and D'Angelo" is how he puts it - but combines them to create something that is uniquely his own.
