Just over a year ago, yeule released their fantastic album Softscars, which we crowned Album Of The Week and one of the Best Albums Of 2023.Since then, the Singaporean singer/songwriter/producer covered Broken Social Scene’s “Anthems For A 17-Year-Old Girl” for the I Saw The TV Glow soundtrack and hopped on a Mura Masa track.
But today, yeule has shared their first post-Softscars original solo music, the single “eko.” According to a press release, “eko” is about “obsession and love and a voice echoing in yeule’s head.” It sees them lean more into their pop influences, with hi-fi vocals, sticky hooks, and an upbeat dance-y feel, although there’s still that sense of off-kilter darkness looming beneath its sugary exterior.The YouTube description says it’s track “3 of 10,” which sounds like yeule’s next LP might be on the way.
