Sophie Appreciation Thread

I just discovered Sophie. What a trip.

Article from Feb 2024 which seemingly wasn’t posted in this thread before.
I like the title :wink:

Charli XCX mentioned Sophie in her Brit Awards speech:

Hi there,

Like many here, I’m kind of obsessed with Sophie’s sound design.

I love her albums (although I was sort of overwhelmed by the posthumus one, in the end) but I have to say I have been even more impressed by the snippets of live performances I’ve found on the internet.

However, the sound of these live sets was never pristine.

Does anybody have a good soundboard live set to share?
(i.e. without the voice of somebody chatting over music)

EDIT: this one is probably the less crappy sound quality-wise, but it gets cut up at times (for copyright-related reasons?)

I would gladly pay a pretty amount for a good quality recording of this live set.

Actually there are lots of poor quality snippets in the liveset section of this site.

I’m still browsing it but I found a couple a decent quality ones, like this one, for example:

Are all the links working on this site for you? The only tabs I can get to open are ‘about’ and ‘live sets’. Nothing else seems to work.

Actually I have only tried the livesets (that’s what I’m interested in, mainly)
