sm^sher – “beggars belief”

Imogen Mason, a member of Voka Gentle from London, is set to unveil her first solo album as sm^sher. The upcoming album, named pit of mine, will be released in November through the innovative platform Scrawl World Ltd. (formerly known as SA Recordings). The opening track and lead single, “beggars belief,” is a catchy electronic pop piece incorporating haunting piano and keyboard melodies along with precise, rhythmic programmed drums.
