* Tucked inside the grape coloured (and scented!) envelope, a sweet delight awaits: Mimikat‘s matte and lacquered EP cover hides a juicy, 12 inch Magenta Gloss vinyl with the artist’s signature stamped in Apple green. Complete with a protective inner sleeve, water-marked with Mimikat’s trademark logo.Sheffield born, London based and Hong Kong-raised newcomer Mimikat, shines on her debut EP, Where it Started - An exploration of the inner conflict, abundant joy, and expansive freedom that comes with navigating the years of our early 20s. Sonically, the EP spans from the mellow and the melancholic to the whimsical, sparkling and inviting. Produced by critically acclaimed whizz-kid and label head, Azekel, the 4-track project showcases the lawyer and singer-songwriter’s kaleidoscopic talent. Mimikat’s vocals surprise and immediately delight, her runs cascading and descending with a delicate finesse akin to the R&B powerhouses that inspire her, from Mariah Carey to Amel Larrieux. Behind her twinkle and girl-next-door smile, it’s clear there’s more to Mimikat than meets the surface and there’s no messing with her musical force.
