Nottingham pop songwriter Ronika has released a new track Step To My Beat. Ronika has released several LP’s on her own record label, RecordShop and supported Little Boots’ gig at London’s XOYO. Her last album ‘Selectadisc’ won praises from The Observer and Mixmag. She was recently invited to Stockholm to take part in a songwriting camp where she met Björn and Benni. The Guardian says “This passion for pop songwriting and early-90s production is showcased on new song Step to My Beat. Over typically glittery synths and a funk-tinged bassline, it’s the sort of low-slung album track that could have nestled in among the hits on Madonna’s True Blue album.” Ronika is an artist to watch.
