miufly, the emerging indie pop artist hailing from Ottawa and Toronto, continues to captivate with her sophomore release, “What I Told U.” Following the success of her debut single “Spring,” which showcased her unique DIY production and introspective songwriting, miufly returns with a sound that’s dreamier, moodier, and undeniably magnetic.
Drawing influences from icons like Billie Eilish and Caroline Polachek, miufly blends electronic pop with alternative sensibilities, crafting a sonic world that’s both immersive and intimate. “What I Told U” was created in her home studio, embodying a raw, DIY essence that highlights her versatility as a vocalist, songwriter, and producer. The track opens with a steady, heartbeat-like pulse, setting the stage for miufly’s airy vocals to glide effortlessly over a shimmering bed of silky textures. The subtle build-up of layered vocals and delicate instrumentation creates a captivating push-and-pull, leaving moments of spacious quiet that draw listeners deeper into the song’s lush atmosphere.
“What I Told U” delves into the uncertainty of navigating life’s twists and turns, embracing the discomfort of not always having the answers. “I wanted to do something that emotionally contrasted my previous release and embraced the uncomfortable,” miufly shares. “This song is about being okay with having no idea what’s happening 95% of the time, and just going with it. It’s a bit more edgy, a bit sexy, and I hope listeners get lost in the atmosphere.”
With “What I Told U,” miufly once again proves her ability to channel personal experiences into relatable, therapeutic art. It’s a mesmerizing follow-up that leaves us eager to see where her artistic journey takes her next.
