    Georgia is not only an x-ray of Barnes' emotional core but also a snapshot of the divergent ways in which music in London (not exclusively, but more commonly) is embracing lots of genres and sounds and throwing them together with complete abandon.
  2. She might be lacking an obvious crossover hit, but you get the sense that those will arrive sooner rather than later; in the meantime, Georgia has something far more valuable: bleeding-edge vitality.

    Written, performed, and produced solely by the artist, Barnes' debut is a percussive gem saturated with guttural synths. It's a distinct piece of electro-pop that deserves close listening.

    Georgia turns everyday emotions into exotic and enticing vignettes.

    It’s a credit to her craft and attention to detail, the resulting offering is sonically and musically expansive, drawing from a wide range of sources and reconciling disparate genres and musical traditions into a cohesive whole that serves as the perfect soundtrack for the halfway mark of the 2010s.

    In this debut, she emerges fully-formed yet ethereal, a spirit slipping between silky and sassy, between clattering beats and electro grinds.

    Had she taken a few more risks, this could have been triumphant. Sadly, it's nothing of the sort. [Aug-Sep 2015, p.63]
