Capricorns: limitless in resilience, relentless towards adversity and steep in emotional depth.
TSHA faucets into the guts, soul and spirit of her astrological solar signal on her debut album, Capricorn Solar, a swelling stunner out now by way of Ninja Tune. The 13-track LP is mountain-moving at its finest, and constant within the punch of its hooks. And whereas the ability of TSHA’s free-flowing preparations could take a second to hit their stride, her work is of the breed that transforms on the dancefloor.
Take the slow-building rapture of “Dancing within the Shadows” (with Clementine Douglas), for instance. Ecstasy bubbles beneath the floor of orchestral chords and Douglas’ impassioned flows. It is easy to think about TSHA, who was named considered one of EDM.com‘s finest music producers in 2021, conducting a crowd, full-body non secular experiences abound beneath the trance-inducing melodic home of its drop.
Then there’s “OnlyL” (with NIMMO), an act of catharsis that—when preceded by the rhythmic dynamism of “The Gentle”—turns into much more of a rallying name. Synths billow up as if from inside they usually burst with a feathery contact as NIMMO cries, “I need to really feel new love tonight.”
TSHA takes us to the celebs and again on Capricorn Solar, her sky enchanted with an electropop sensibility corresponding to the odysseys of ODESZA. “Anxious Thoughts” (additionally with Douglas) toys with the dichotomy between exhausting and smooth amongst shimmering sound design. “Giving Up” is a stirring love tune of persistence, impressed by TSHA’s romantic relationship with featured vocalist Mafro. “Water” (with Oumou Sangaré) pays homage to the sounds of Malian Groat music, a West African model that accompanies oral histories with conventional drums and strings.

Lest we neglect the intimate delicacy of “Sister,” a vocal chop-driven home document that—since its launch in 2020—has grow to be a TSHA hallmark. The comforting sweeps of its sonics hit even tougher within the context of an album impressed by almost three years of feelings and experiences.
“I prefer to determine with a number of the constructive traits of a Capricorn: the hardiness and the work ethic… but in addition the sensitivity,” TSHA defined in a press launch. “Naming the album ‘Capricorn Solar’ was a great way of claiming ‘that is me’…The songs on the album symbolize totally different components of me.”
