Ramona Gonzalez aka Nite Jewel was never short of musical
surprises. From her early unconventional experiments with electronica, through the fruitful collaboration with the Modern Funk wizard DâM-FunK to the magnificent "One
Second of Love" and her other synth-pop excursions, she was never banal or
predictable. Now the lo-fi artist from Los Angeles returns with a real jewel of
a song. No other track this year, apart from Jessy Lanza’s inescapable "ItMeans I Love You", impressed me so much. "Boo Hoo" is an intricately crafted
sonic mish-mash of electro pop, future R&B and nu disco à la Glass Candy.
The flawless production goes hand in hand with a very solid songwriting here. "Boo
Hoo" announces the release of Nite Jewel’s 3rd studio album "Liquid
Cool" which drops 10th June via her own label Gloriette. See the
