Much has been made of Ferreira\u2019s mishandling by major labels, who attempted to posit her as the next Britney, but I\u2019m of the mind that her first stab at the charts, 2010\u2019s \u201cOne,\u201d is as good a pop song as you\u2019re going to find in the last decade. If only someone was listening back then, Ferreira the ing\u00e9nue was (hypothetically) a Max Martin single away from headlining stadiums. The artist, though, found another vessel, changed her look and her aesthetics, and fought for her \u201cart,\u201d even when it\u2019s apparent on this record that the real star here is the production crutching her still fragile songs.<\/p>\n<p>However, it would be errant to totally exclude Ferreira from the craft that went into <i>Night Time, My Time<\/i>. There are a number of tracks here that feel like real collaborations between her keen sense of pop melodies and the lavish baubles attached by Ariel Rechtshaid, who also shares writing credit on the whole shebang. \u201cLove in Stereo,\u201d for instance, couldn\u2019t work in any other range than the cool nonchalance of Ferreira\u2019s coo. It\u2019s effortless bubblegum. Then again, the redundancy of \u201cOmanko\u201d comes across as Ferriera purposely injecting her new found love of abject influences like Suicide and the buzz-goth of Garbage. It\u2019s tiring and trite. In the entirety of the album, though, those missteps are few and far between, allowing the sparkling arrangements of Rechtshaid to take center stage.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s particularly true of the record\u2019s first half, where Ferreira has invested in blatant hypnogogic nostalgia and hyper-grunge motifs, and Rechtshaid\u2019s bright, almost glaring, production only magnifies her musings. Like falling asleep during a John Hughes movie, subconscious tendencies awaken in the synthetic swells of \u201c24 Hours,\u201d and \u201cI Blame Myself.\u201d Meanwhile, \u201cNobody Asked Me (If I Was Okay)\u201d and lead single \u201cYou\u2019re Not the One\u201d have just enough grit to attach Ferreira to the fringes of indie-rock. The diversity between these extremes allows for the artist to parlay her appeal across the board. It\u2019s sly, if not somewhat desperate, and it works for the most part.<\/p>\n<p>This has been a banner year for the breakout, leftfield pop star\u2014from Solange to the transformation of Tegan and Sara\u2014 and Ferreira \u2019s entry is no exception. In fact, it might be the best attempt so far. That said, comparisons to Madonna in the \u201980s are unfounded. First, she\u2019ll need to establish a vision with more teeth, more personality. She\u2019ll also need to find her own voice, something she doesn\u2019t really have here, and then we might start taking her seriously as an artist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Sky Ferreira\u2019s long-in-the-making debut album, <i>Night Time, My Time<\/i>, it\u2019s important to separate the artist from the art.
