To be honest, the name WondaGurl was one of the stand out names on the latest PinkPantheress remix tape especially since most of the producers on there lean towards an electronic sound. However her rendition of "Last valentines" is seamlessly - in my opinion - the best track on there.

There is a dark and emotive essence that rides over the track predominantly because of Wonda's fine selection of synths. Originally "Last valentines" has quite a speedy momentum when it came to it's rhythm thanks to the break beat/garage influence, and on this rendition we're acquainted with a gem that has a hip hop/r&b kind of aesthetic - albeit with an experimental touch.
