Dear Robin,
I am releasing my new song Funk On The Dancefloor this Friday, and wondered if you would be interested in reviewing it?
Preview Funk On The Dancefloor on soundcloud:

Song info:
Lyrically, Funk On The Dancefloor was inspired by the idea of that magical union you can have with someone you have just met – and know nothing about, but instantly have a connection with, via a shared love or joy for something – in this case, MUSIC!
Often life can stress us out and it’s easy to get distracted from all of the little miracles around us, but being in the moment is what this song is all about.
See the Official Video here: https://youtu.be/5UVkrBqtYGQ
The music video was alot of (freezing) fun to shoot, laying on a wet pavement in Hackney, barefoot in a mini dress while passer-by’s looked on! I probably seemed a bit crazy – however, it was all in the name of funk. HA!
If you have any questions or would like further info, please let me know.
Best wishes,
Alice x
