Olivia Morreale impresses with a bursting, synth-driven pop sound throughout new track “NO ANSWER.” “You got a strange look in your eyes,” she sings amidst a spacey, lonesome synth resonance. “And I,” she continues with a hooky, quivering inflection and cut-up production smarts. The glistening soundscape and overall production shine throughout, in addition to the confident vocal push. The track, co-written and co-produced by multi-instrumentalist Eli Koskoff, finds influence from ’80s retrowave and electro-pop — succeeding in its melodic presentation and winning aesthetic.
