Aladean Kheroufi (2022)
Edmonton, AB
Smooth-as-silk songwriter Aladean Kheroufi pairs a breathy coo with a bed of laidback-lounge pop. Less retro than timeless, his style is exemplified best on this year’s single LOVE! ... (is the answer) b/w Every Girl, which veers from waltzy longing to rapturous desire across its two tracks.
