Sofia Nova’s “Come To Me” is a sultry nu-soul gem that envelops listeners in a lush, dreamy soundscape. Originally hailing from Orlando but now a fixture in the London music scene, Sofia‘s voice drips with a honeyed warmth that seamlessly bridges the past and future. Tracking at a little over 4 minutes, this groovy slow jam produced by BLKDECO oozes an unassuming rhythm while making for the perfect late-night lie down in candlelight and shadows.
The opening lines, “Oh you know you know / Want a taste / So sweet / So come with me / Let’s find eternity,” immediately lure you into a world of longing and connection with Sofia‘s softly curling “come here baby” index finger reeling you in. Nova uses both soothing and simmering sounds to guide listeners into an almost erotic trip through the clouds. And the chorus, with its repeated plea of “Come to me baby,” is just impossible to say no to.
The track boasts a full production palette of effects-laden guitars, congas, and a gentle Fender Rhodes hum, all with a warm shedding of analog to match the sexy-sweet din of the vocal being adorned by Nova. Airy melodic runs wash over the background instrumental, and through it all her voice, expert and effervescent, tackles the low breathy notes and lighter-than-air pleas with ease.
Set in a darkened room with swirls of kaleidoscopic lights following her around, the video complements the sexy, dream-like power of the track – turning “Come To Me” into a late-night reverie that both speaks to the soul and haunts the bones long after the music has stopped playing.
