Hyperpop trailblazer Danny L Harle is about to drop “the big one.” Last fall he announced<\/a> his official debut album Cerulean, out next month, with the lead single “Crystallise My Tears” featuring Oklou and MNEK. Today he’s shared another preview “Raft In The Sea,” featuring heavy-hitter pop songwriter and artist Julia Michaels.<\/p>\n

“Raft In The Sea” is dreamy, metallic pop. Although it has an earworminess to it, there’s a striking sadness as well. Michaels’ vocals sound particularly devastating here \u2014 it’s not the smoky or blunt or laidback tone she’s known for. Her voice is high-pitched, fragile, maybe a little icy. Almost snowflake-like. Harle keeps the track moving with a punching dance beat, some trumpets, and spritely melodies. <\/p>\n

In a press release, Harle shared his experience about working with Michaels:<\/p>\n

I was incredibly honoured to work with Julia – she does not need to do anything for anyone. I initially met her during a Dua Lipa session, and my jaw literally dropped when I heard her sing this idea in the room. I heard something in her voice that I\u2019d not heard in her own music. In a similar way to working with MNEK, I wanted to bring out the rawness and melancholy of her voice. When we were making this song, I asked her, \u2018Can you just be sad?\u2019 And she said, \u2018For you\u00a0Danny, I will.\u2019 Her performance is just incredible.<\/p>\n
