In 2005, Supernature won Alison Goldfrapp and Will
      Gregory their first Grammy nomination, a pile of
      sync money, and an undeniable influence over the
      sound of pop to come. It gave aspiring indie-dance
      acts greater permission to embrace levity and
      inebriated partygoers plenty of coke anthems and
      ill-advised karaoke options. And it gave Goldfrapp
      an image they d never fully escape: the
      electroclash-era buzz band in  80s outfits. It s a
      reputational flattening that treats the delicate,
      more organic material that makes up at least half of
      their discography as an afterthought, or an
      unwelcome musical power outage. It reduces Alison
      Goldfrapp s role to that of a unifunctional synth
      dominatrix frontwoman the kind of banal misogyny
      that she s lamented in interviews. It elevates the
      iconic, at the expense of the spellbinding.

But how would you prefer to be remembered by
      history, should you be so lucky: at your most
      influential, or at your most you? Decades into her
      career, Goldfrapp still has spells to cast. Her
      second solo album, Flux, arrives from her own label,
      written during a period when she was single for the
      first time in years. Judging by the music, life for
      her felt heady with possibility.  I want to swoon, I
      want to bloom,  she declares on  Play It (Shine Like
      a Nova Star) ; elsewhere, she conjures reveries for
       somewhere and somebody new.  Like The Love
      Invention, Flux was co-produced with Richard X,
      2000s Britpop s master of dancefloor fillers. But
      Flux seeks a more elusive chemistry: Even when
      Goldfrapp sings about the platonic sublime such as
      the awestruck  Sound & Light,  inspired by her
      longing to see the aurora borealis she infuses it
      with mystery. As David Lynch once tweeted, she s
      connected to the moon.

Well, that or the  luna goo,  as Goldfrapp coos at
      the beginning of  Reverberotic.  The track is the
      strictest machine here: a slow, steady synth grind
      that shivers with falling-star effects; the
      metaphorical counterparts are surely intended. But
      despite its goopy intro and Eusexua-style neologism,
      it s not a joke. Goldfrapp s vocals are so
      airbrushed that the intro registers less as words
      (perhaps for the best, in this case) than a
      continuous swoon. She means what she says and on the
      next track, the besotted and very reverbed  Strange
      Things Happen,  she proves it.

Of Goldfrapp s discography, Flux resembles most the
      ethereal atmospherics of Seventh Tree or the noir
      fairytales of Tales of Us.  UltraSky  begins with a
      lonely SOS into the darkness, then gives way to a
      breathy sunrise, Goldfrapp s voice rising out of its
      husky register into an Aerial soprano. The Italo
      disco-esque  Magma  is less song than haze; it heats
      the air by convection. As Goldfrapp s gone solo, her
      music s become more about connection, and the most
      bitter track,  Play It,  is also the hardest-edged,
      both in sound and imagery. Goldfrapp s voice is fed
      into a vocoder sneer, and the image of choice is a
      nova star something that explodes on its own.

This is all familiar musical territory, in no small
      part because of Goldfrapp s own influence.  Hey Hi
      Hello  is an exuberant dance-pop track in the  Call
      Your Girlfriend  mold, out to prove there s no
      worldly complication of love that can t be blasted
      away with enough glitter. Perhaps inevitably,
      Richard X s presence tends to make this material
      converge toward Annie;  Find Xanadu  in particular
      lives in the same realm of hothouse melodrama as
       Anthonio  or her later Dark Hearts. But Goldfrapp s
      voice is sinuous enough to set the songs apart,
      slipping through cracks where other vocalists might
      straightforwardly belt. Her writing, too, is
      disarmingly optimistic; even the roller-rink couples
      skate of  Cinnamon Light  or the storybook
      transcendentalism of  Ordinary Day  come off earnest
      rather than saccharine. And, unlike many albums to
      come from its synth-pop cohort, Flux resists being
      taken apart for playlists. Set almost any similar
      song against it, and you realize how heady a spell
      has just been broken.
