I only know of her because 100 Million plays at the Hallmark my mom works at and she thinks it's the worst song ever.

The random number generator delivers once again. Palana is an exploration of dreamy, psychedelic and chamber pop covering a wide range of sounds with moments of beautiful simplicity as well as those with layered depth. A humble 1980s feel throughout. Highlighting a set of tracks only displays the ground this record covers all knit together by Hilton's somewhat bored singing style. The opener, Palana, is a lonely emotional track with Charlie over synth and guitar lacking any percussion. Pony, one of the best tracks, picks up the pace with shoegaze elements alongside bright synth. Funny Anyway pairs mellow Charlie with smooth cello backing. Let's Go to a Party, a true highlight, balances robot beats with a wavering synth track. The Young, another lonely one, throws in some free form sax for juxtaposition to Charlie's fairly monotone style. The ender, 100 Million, feels a bit like a country diddy with, relatively, upbeat percussion and acoustic guitars. Some will say it is a Nico impression/ripoff/emulation but when it comes down to it there is a lot of good music on this record and it would be a shame to not give Palana a chance. Pony, Let's Go to a Party and 100 Million would make an excellent sampler.
