The Grammy-nominated producer Sophie's final, self-titled and posthumous album — lovingly curated by her brother and studio engineer Benny Long — still sounds like the future of pop music.

Three years after her death, on a posthumous release overseen by her family, the once-enigmatic producer and Charli XCX collaborator sounds more than ever like the future of pop.

The late artist’s final work might challenge and confuse some of her longtime devotees, but that should be embraced.

Some girls want to be known, while others prefer to remain obscure. Scottish-born singer and producer Sophie was for the girls who wanted to hide behind the mixer board while still crafting their own magic—and Sophie, her first posthumous record, attempts to reconcile both of those ideals.

The music of Sophie lives on through her self-titled final album, which surprised dropped late Wednesday.
