When talking about her next project, Grimes (a.k.a. Claire Boucher) reflected on an idea to go with a more synthesized sound. Compared to her usual energized off-the-wall sound, Grimes has stated that she is going with a "slower and more reflective" sound. This will be very different for the artist as she's always had up-beat, electronic tunes. Not that this means her new sound will be boring. Anyone who has listened to Grimes will know that it's still going to be unique and weird.

This is the reason why I love Grimes: everything she does is different from the mainstream. Many say that she is a mainstream artist, but I disagree. When artists like Lorde were rising into the pop scene with their "simplified pop," Grimes went the opposite direction. She made her sound more complicated, electronic, and kinetic. This is why I think her next sound will be even more unique than usual.

What fascinates me so much about Grimes is that she produces every aspect of her career on her own. She produces her own beats, vocals, music videos, cover art, etc. Many of my favorite albums have been produced by the artist themselves. Art Angels was probably one of the best released in 2015, and she's still promoting it through new videos. She even dropped seven new music videos last month, all self-directed.

If you haven't listened to Grimes yet, you really should. She has so much creativity to offer the world and is highly underrated. She's fascinating, weird, and unique. She does her own thing and embraces individuality. Give her a listen, channel your inner weirdness, and groove with her electronic vibes.
