Continuing a rapid rise worldwide as an artist to watch, revered South Korean singer-songwriter Yves (@yvesntual), formerly of K-pop girl group LOONA, serves up an infectious new single, “White Cat,” out now via PAIX PER MIL/ADA. The song sets the stage for the arrival of her highly anticipated forthcoming EP, “Soft Error,” available on August 7.

The track’s video game-style synths pounce on the glitchy beat as Yves’ dynamic vocals shine through, leaning into a future-facing bounce in one moment only to flex her high register during the next. Like a perfectly groomed Persian cat abandoned on the street, this track captures a self that breaks away from an identity shaped solely to be loved, only to find itself adrift once more, without an emotional destination. Blending a resolve tinged with resignation and dreamy synth textures, the song encapsulates Yves’ signature sense of composed chaos.

“Soft Error” showcases the scope of Yves’ ever-evolving signature style across its six songs. She teams up with none other than multiplatinum international phenomenon PinkPantheress on the instant earworm “Soap,” while Bratty lends a Spanish-language cameo to “Aibo,” adding another dimension to the project altogether. It’s this kind of gleeful unpredictability and uncompromising creativity that further distinguishes Yves from the rest.
Yves has reached a point professionally and personally where she’s confident enough to simply exist in the moment and allow her artistry to breathe like never before in “Soft Error.”
