    While she's developed her voice in the process, Designer being a shining example of how she showed her many talents with oft-kilter confidence, Warm Chris blends spontaneity and rigidity all at once.

    Incredible! Aldous does it again! She has such an ear for melody and her songwriting is never anything less than enchanting.
