Jess Mills - 'Pixelated People'

Album Info

  • Release Date: January 29, 2012
  • Producer: Sam Frank
  • Label: Island
  • Fact: Jess is the daughter of MP Tessa Jowell

The one fact everyone knows about Jess Mills is that she’s the daughter of MP Tessa Jowell. It’s not especially relevant – it’s not like she’s singing about the Olympic Delivery Authority. In fact, this single is an excellent, brooding lament with an aching, gathering-storm quality and shades of Burial’s blurry, rain-soaked synths, while still being very pop.
