MARLENE ∞, “Bon Voyage”

Good morning! Here’s the debut single from MARLENE ∞, the latest in a long, storied line of sweetly insolent Swedish pop singers as well as a notable example of how the Google impetus is making musicians choose stranger and stranger names (as an expert suggested, perhaps we’re supposed to say “Marlene Forever”?). “Bon Voyage” makes a strong first impression, mixing shimmery synth-pop with clubby R&B;, highly recommended for past or future fans of Kate Boy’s similar oeuvre.
