Miso Extra has droped new single “POP’, the song features production from members of indie-pop collective MICHELLE. Drawing inspiration from K-Pop and UK Garage, and blending English and Japanese vocals. “POP” is lifted from the Japanese-British singer and producer’s forthcoming album, Earcandy, written and recorded in the summer of 2024 with engineer Ricky Damian (Ezra Collective, Jorja Smith, Sampha) at Damon Albarn’s Studio 13. The album is set for release on May 16th via Transgressive.

Speaking about the single, Miso shares “POP is about the feeling of finding something SO cute you want to squeeze it till it pops! It’s a journey into a sugar fueled take on the pop genre, sonically inspired by NewJeans and CHAI.”

“POP” follows the release of “Certified”, a synth-house-inspired pop track, “Good Kisses” featuring Metronomy, where Joseph Mount hailed Miso Extra as “the future”, the pop-R&B track “Ghostly”, and last year’s, UKG-infused “Slow Down”, co-written and produced with DJ Boring. Her forthcoming debut album, Earcandy, co-produced by Miso herself, weaves a rich tapestry of collaborations, including contributions from A. K. Paul and Tyson. Adding to the album’s creative vision, Miso worked closely with Chinese-Indonesian filmmaker and photographer Claryn Chong to shape its striking visual identity.

Fans of Miso Extra, include Fabiana Palladino and Thundercat. Miso Extra is well on her way to becoming the diverse musical role model she so desperately lacked when she was growing up. The artist has toured with Rejjie Snow and Yannis & The Yaw, and delivering a standout performance alongside Tierra Whack at Pitchfork London, Miso Extra recently wrapped up a tour supporting Kelly Lee Owens – making a special stop in Paris to perform with Toro y Moi.
