Artist To Check Out: Madeleine Dopico - 'Nice Boy' (Single)



Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Madeleine Dopico sounds the alarm with the release of her third single, 'Nice Boy'.
Through 'Nice Boy', we as a blog make our first introduction to the music of Madeleine Dopico whose back story sees her bravely quitting the safety of her day job to chase her musical dream and we are so glad she did.

Beautifully blending organic instrumentation and dance electronics, Madeleine Dopico has created a single full of urgency and foreboding. Haunting and sombre piano riffs compliment her exquisite vocals, but it is within the surprising addition of "warning" electronics that another layer of intensity appears, pulling the track away from melancholy pop to new, fearless, genre-blending heights.

On the track Madeleine told us, "'Nice Boy' is about a woman who feels she's a villain to men, though she never intended to become that way. After playing with danger, she's become a danger herself." - seeing the lyrical theme of danger cleverly spill over into every enjoyable second of the sonic elements too.
