Marta Kalani is a Spain-born, Australia-based neo-soul singer/songwriter we should certainly pay more attention to.

Her sound reflects a rich blend of cultural influences because of her diverse upbringing and "TWin Flames" featuring Will Henderson is a solid proof of that. Driven by her love for neo-soul and r&b, Kalani’s Latin roots are the cherry on top when it comes to creating a unique cocktail of emotions and feelings. The song reflects the double-sided nature of intense romantic connections, capturing the bittersweet nature of what initially brought them together.

Listening to the track felt like a trip back to the prime Soulquarian days. It quickly grew on me because of Marta's smoky, but inviting vocals and the fact that she perfectly balances old and new in "TWin Flames". Pair this up with a funky bassline and solid drumming and you've got a recipe for success.
