yunè pinku has never wanted to sit in one lane. The Malaysian-Irish electronic creator may have caught our attention with dancefloor immediacy – the lucid garage-infused ‘Laylo’ and ‘Bluff’ – but there’s so much more to her than system-rattling beats.
Incoming EP ‘Babylon IX’ is the work of a true futurist, a boundary-less talent who erases the barriers between genres. Take new single ‘Heartbeat’ – it runs parallel to those PC Music innovations, with its daring sci-fi gloss amplifying her avant pop tendencies.
The glistening production has a chrome appeal, the finesse polished to the Nth degree during those fastidious studio sessions. Beneath the exacting sonic template lies a beating pop heart, with yunè pinku forever aiming for directness.
A profoundly intelligent artist, she blends the cerebral with emotional intent to craft something fully realised – a 360 vision, one that comes into sharper focus with each passing release.
Tune in now.
