Pretty Idea is a lustrous, emotionally candid album that maps the tension between romance and self-reclamation, using dancefloor sheen as both shield and amplifier for vulnerability. Amber Mark glides through disco, funk, and R&B textures, her breathy vocals threading through glossy synths, rubbery basslines, and warm harmonies. The record blossoms in moments like “Sweet Serotonin,” where woozy nostalgia meets modern groove, and it plunges deeper in “Don’t Remind Me” (with Anderson .Paak), when heartbreak is laid bare against a slow funk pulse. While parts of the album lean toward pop polish, Mark’s lyrical sincerity and vocal nuance prevent it from feeling merely decorative. All told, Pretty Idea achieves a balance: a body of work that seduces with its surfaces but sustains with its emotional core.
