Gave it a quick listen - sounds fantastic. Her voice and music really benefit from this sort of polished pop production, everything sounds rich and beautiful and I don't even notice her voice anymore, it sort of just becomes one of the many production elements that comprise this iridescent tapestry. Track 4 (with the super long title that I can't be bothered to transliterate) is especially ridiculous and wondrous, I think I can be a little on board with her sense of humour now.
The album's weakest moments are when she tries to actually 'sing', and her stripped down voice becomes the focal point, e.g. in the closing track - nice song, but butchered by her voice.
EDIT: She sounds good rapping or doing that spoken word thing. She should do it more.
