Frankmusik - Confusion Girl

Frankmusik is a unique proposition in 2009, multi-talented, ferociously productive, a motor-mouth, thinking, making, doing at high speeds. In 09 Frankmusik is the future of pop futuristism. Which other male newcomer this year would have the drive to have written/produced a brilliant debut album, tracks for other top 10 stars, remix The Pet Shop Boys and his whole album into a 'night' version. His creativity is all-night compulsive. In terms of raw talent Frankmusik is exceptional, his output prodigious.

From the first summery blasts of synths and bleeps you can hear Confusion Girl is a gigantic, gleaming record taking off. Co-produced with Stuart Price it weaves together influences from Basement Jaxx to ELO into a new pop perspective.

Like the forthcoming album Complete Me, available from 13th July 2009, Confusion Girl was written as catharsis for an all-consuming passionate 2-year relationship that ended in disaster. This is the other side to Frankmusik's story. It's one that his fans identify with. They've been through what he's been through in places like his home town of Thornton Heath, Croydon. In a genre of phoned in, market-researched melodies, insincere images, this is the best breed of pop; askew, individual, life-saving, life-affirming, a compulsion, real. Something that resonated with his off-center-genius antecedents in British pop, who have kindly given him their patronage - whether it's the Pet Shop Boys asking him to remix them and be their main and only support on their arena dates or Stuart Price mentoring his live show and record.

Vincent's razor-sharp sound bites, intelligence and grace has seen him charm his way through magazines, radio stations, TV and online. Perez Hilton is 'obsessed'. Holly Vallance is re-entering the world of pop to star as his 'video girl' in the Confusion Girl video. But these are the kind of things that happen when Vincent is around; he's been sent to Earth to reduce its net boredom armed with personality and perfect pop confections.
