We don’t often hear a singer whose tracks burst with so many sonic elements as these by Dove Vega. Unfortunately, her audio ambitions diminish Vega as the primary force in these mixes. She’s thoroughly overwhelmed. There’s no question, though, that this is music made to get a live audience up and dancing. “Truth or Dare” gets your attention instantly with its wall of synths and electronic flourishes. The backup vocals, however, steal much of Vega’s own thunder. She’s less challenged on the sultry “Shadow Dancer,” showing more power and range. “Charisma” has perhaps the most sonic traffic and it’s a perfect example of why this artist would benefit by scaling back. A “less is more” approach is needed.
