Read Description:

Melodramatic pop tunes dripping in 80's electro

Brooklynite Elizabeth Harper’s first musical offerings appeared in the form of personal singer/songwriter fare - her airy vocals paired only with quiet strums of acoustic guitar. But having a long-held desire to make electronic music, Harper recruited producers Mark Richardson and Scott Rosenthal to assist in achieving her desired sound, and electro-pop outfit Class Actress was born.

Now settled in with the folks at Carpark, Harper and co. put forth their debut LP, Rapprocher. The record is the soundtrack for a love affair conducted in European discos and New York nightclubs. Tracks like “Love Me Like You Used To” and “Hanging On” swaddle the record’s heavy disco beats in diaphanous sheets of delay, and the bouncing bass of “Weekend” make it a prime candidate for a feel-good electro pop hit.
