Earcandy Music CD

Japanese-British singer and producer Miso Extra has made her infectious journey through everything from tongue-in-cheek rap and sultry R&B to tuned-up hyperpop and dancefloor electronica, with each wandering sound guided by her expert ear. Her debut album, Earcandy – featuring collaborations from DJ Boring, Metronomy, AK Paul, Samo, Tyson and MICHELLE – cements her status as an irrepressible and confident new talent, capable of transforming the exciting, spontaneous moment of creation into delight for the ears. Decamping to Damon Albarn’s Studio 13 in London over summer 2024, she co-produced the album with Grammy Award-winning engineer Riccardo Damian (Mark Ronson, Ezra Collective, Jorja Smith, Sampha). Across 12 tracks, she takes us on a journey of lovelorn vulnerability, growth, and self-empowerment, while traversing the K-Pop and UK Garage references of the earworming “POP," the lovesick lyricism and bass-heavy R&B beats of “Good Kisses," the synth-house swing of “Certified," and the reverb-laden ‘80s melodics of “Ghostly." On Earcandy, Miso expands her sonic universe to produce the fullest expression of her restlessly roving sound.
