Over the last couple of days, I've spent my time vigorously searching for something good to write about. But thanks to Yù Yī's debut single "Peaches", it's safe to say the hunt is officially over. Every single aspect of this song is just pure gold.

To my surprise, this would also be the first time the world has heard of Australia's Ellen and her ethereal vocals. For a first release, I'm most certainly impressed at how polished the overall sound is. It is a gorgeous blend of classic soul, groove-tinged electronic and faint bursts of quirky sound effects.

So, who is Yù Yī? Well, he identifies himself as a little astronaut named Hugo. And he's on a journey through the wacky wonderful world of Yù Yī. If that has sparked your interest, then I suggest you join us on the exciting and unforgettable journey. I think I might've found a new favourite for 2018.
