“Aphrodite Leaves” 

by Chloe Dunn


I’ve always preferred tracks that are a bit more progressive and gutsy, exploring musical and lyrical avenues that are slightly less travelled. In many ways, this is what’s best about indie pop. The genre houses brilliant artists like Chloe Dunn, who are not tied to the mainstream cookie-cutter approach to making music but rather, are free to experiment and create something with a bit more content and edge.


Chloe Dunn’s new single “Aphrodite Leaves” is a fabulous piece of art pop, fusing classical influences and electronic music. It’s inspired by Greek mythology and the Apple of Discord (golden apple claimed by Hera, Athena and Aphrodite but awarded to Aphrodite) that began a chain of events leading to the Trojan War. Building a song on an ancient legend is a clever move from Dunn and an exciting approach to crafting a pop single. Very different, very fresh.


“Aphrodite Leaves” showcases beautiful melodies backed with mystical instrumentation. Anyone who likes a little bit of avantgarde with their pop will fall in love with it. Check it out.
