- Words Cleo Webster
Mastering her love for anime and fantasy into her handcrafted dreamy electro alt-pop sound, we've spilt the beans AU/RA's top 10 tracks she cannot stop dancing to!
Living the teenage dream, our green-haired pop princess AU/RA has made it a dream of taking over the alt-pop scene since she was twelve and has shown no signs of leaving her dreams empty. Intertwining her love for Miyazaki style animated visuals with her dark ethereal aura, this German-Antiguan songstress boomed to stardom from the CamelPhat remix of her most eminent single “Panic Room” in 2018, which took the music world by a storm. Wrapped in a musical cloak since birth, AU/RA has grown up listening to the deep trance sounds of her father’s music, as well as gaining strong musical influences from artists like The Neighbourhood, Kraftwerk, Lana Del Ray, and The Arctic Monkeys. Releasing her first ever single “Concrete Jungle” which has gained 32 million streams worldwide, AU/RA has also been featured in Norweigan DJ Alan Walkers No1 single “Darkside” on the way to spreading her mystical aura way further.
A city-island girl with two EP’s “Outsiders”, “X Games” and seven lead singles under her super kawaii belt, this multicultural pop princess is due to take over the scene with her evocative lyricism and otherworldly aesthetics anytime soon, as green becomes the new black.
