The Magician’s Private Library is a startling debut from a singer who was confident her songs could survive being handed over to one of music’s most in-demand producers. Her instincts were correct and though Sitek does stamp his sound over much of the album, it’s only to augment what was already there as opposed to reframing entire songs. This dreamy, warm and otherworldly concoction is the perfect antidote to the grey and chilly beginnings of the impending new year.
