Following the bold debut ‘So Kind’ and the haunting elegance of ‘In My Eyes’, London-based artist Ula returns with a daring new, stripped-down single enigmatically titled ‘Danger’. While those earlier singles leaned into lush textures and cinematic layering, ‘Danger’ thrives on a dark-pop tension. Driven by a persistent square-wave bass, punctuated by growling guitars and marching analogue synths, the track gradually unravels as a restrained confrontation. Throughout the track, Ula’s voice is commanding and self-assured, true to the artist we’ve come to know and love.

Intense on the verge of intimidation, what makes ‘Danger’ stand out is how Ula walks that line between discomfort and excitement, between darkness and light, between peril and empowerment. Her vocal delivery is as confident as ever with a playful undertone to her intrinsically biting rhythm, emphasising this artist’s defiant stance against external manipulation. It’s peppered with shades of St. Vincent’s art-pop precision, Allie X’s theatrical flair and Aurora’s ethereal potency, recalling Ula’s favourite influences. It’s a powerful final single before the release of her debut EP, which will no doubt further confirm this artist as one to watch and one to keep a close eye on.
