4. Sparks (2014)
“A bit of a mixed bag, sounds like leftovers from her previous albums including her nineties era debut which means that yes, this has dated moments of electro infused pop and piano driven singer-songwriter fare. Still, Imogen has a unique voice which reminds me of a more flexible, more dramatic Beth Orton and she is always a pleasure to listen to.”
3. I-Megaphone (1998)
“Listening to Imogen Heap’s music is a strange experience; in many ways it feels underwhelming and unmemorable, yet there’s something attractive about it that’s hard to define…The two albums of hers that I own both took me many listens to feel like I had a grip on how I felt about them, and while I wish I liked her more (as much as artists like Kate Bush and Tori Amos and Bjork whom she’s clearly inspired by), I’m glad to have made her acquaintance.”
2. Ellipse (2009)
” I like this album a lot. I suppose what makes it so good is the way everything is perfectly balanced here. It really builds on a certain atmosphere that gets it close to an ambient pop tag, yet it’s too song-oriented for that. Also, someway it has an experimental attitude, a deep background, then the songs themselves are still easy and extremely catchy – her little ideas work perfectly together with the songs.”
1. Speak For Yourself (2005)
“Speak For Yourself is uncharacteristic in many vastly impressive ways. As an album that could easily be branded as sugar pop, it is unbelievably sincere, mature, and emotionally expansive in ways that its genre doesn’t seem capable. Last year, Annie’s Anniemal proved that there is a market for pure pop music created by and for adults. Imogen Heap improves upon Annie’s work in every way: it runs the full spectrum of emotion in believable, touching ways, and it is both musically complex and highly accessible. The atmosphere remains thick on every track as Imogen’s romantic tragedies soar across soft keyboards, scattered beats, and on “Hide And Seek,” a vocoder effect that’d stop the most avid detractor of pop music dead in his tracks.”
