After dropping sophomore album ‘Glitch Princess’ in February, Yeule has revealed they are looking to release another album this year.
Less than two months after the Singapore-born, London-based artist released ‘Glitch Princess’, Yeule – aka Nat Ćmiel – is close to wrapping up work on its more acoustically driven follow-up, according to Pitchfork. The album, as Yeule described it, is “going to sound like emo for cyborgs”.
The upcoming album – which has yet to receive a title or release date – will take on a brighter tone than its predecessors. “I wouldn’t say that all the songs on the new album are happy, but I think it’s sweeter,” they told Pitchfork.
“I’m coming to a point where I’m tired of being self-loathing. This is no longer Tumblr 2012.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Yeule spoke about their upbringing in Singapore, a country they called “very nationalist”. They added: “If you’re not for Singapore, then say goodbye to grants or government sponsorships. And the education system made me meticulous, in a fucked up way. It was crazy being ostracized if you didn’t hit a certain number – like, goodbye. There’s also not a lot to do if you don’t have money. It’s like a theme park sometimes – that’s why I was in my room making music and doing stuff on my computer.”
“Singapore will always be my home though, and there are many nice things about it – like, bro the sunsets are crazy, the sky is on fire,” they continued. “And now, after living in the UK since university, I can go back and see it in a different light.” Read More…
