Her stuff's so different, you can always tell it's an Ikonika tune that's being played!

If i was that way inclined, whenever i heard Millie i would wave my hands in the air and yell "this is my jam".

Thank god i'm not though. Love that tune though, weird and beautiful at the same time.

And i have to agree with Misk.

Must admit I have never really been into any Ikonika beats. They just don't do it for me. But I have the utmost respect for her direction and effort. She is unique.

millie / direct was the release of the year for me

these "i don't like [insert producer's name here], do you?" threads are startin to get borin, but big up the woman, sick producer, sick dj, & kode9 agrees with me, & he's not exactly bad himself either

if you don't like her stuff, don't feel bad, you don't have to, but don't expect many other people in the club to agree with you

peace. love sent from croydon

Please is anthemic. 10 months since its release and to me it still sounds like one of the freshest beats out there, absolute quality.

This. I love Ikonika's take on the sound from both a listener's and a producer's standpoint.

did you read my post? I never said I didn't like her music. I was asking others opinions as I am/was not familiar with her work and wanted to know if it was worth checking out deeper.

I definitely found Ikonika to be a grower, it's less immediately mindblowing than a lot of stuff, but it really got under my skin (I'd often find myself humming the tunes). Don't write it off straight away.

opinions on ikonika?
