No Men for PIE

Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, but now based in London, Pietra Matalon, best known as PIE, is seducing us with her blissful melodies and stunning soulful arrangements. While using music as a refuge to help deal with her emotions, PIE built a special connection with music very young. This year she dropped off her debut single, “Apathy”. The song carries a strong impactful beat, with an honest tone and a soft chill instrumental brighten by the wobbly guitar solos. It is an inspiring track full of soothing harmonies, packed with vulnerability proving to be a clever and authentic composition.

Later that year, PIE released a refreshing single that keeps the previous R&B jazzy vibes, “Solitude” creates a smooth and fluid ambiance to disclose such an important topic. The song begins with a playful guitar followed by a simple percussion that later evolutes to a neat beat. There are a lot of details that compose this serene track, the use of voicemails, the intoxicating saxophone, and the guitars that bring so much color. Once again the beautiful vocals of the artist do not go unnoticed. In a more aspirated, but powerful tone, PIE captivates us from the beginning of the song taking us on a unique venture.

Already in 2022, the singer gifted us with her third exceptional single, “No Men”. The track begins with a dry beat, devious synth, and a sneaky seductive bass. It carries an inviting but easygoing atmosphere that is romped by PIE’s raw clear vocals and breezy instrumental breaks. PIE is an upcoming artist to watch, her three first remarkable singles prove to be a rousing showcase of the artist’s talent. The Brazilian is not afraid of exposing her feelings, taking us on a ride through the different stages of a breakup. PIE deserves all the hype so go give her some so we get more amazing music soon.
