In recent months, Lulu’s music has been a bit more on the introspective side, with moments of release only coming after a hearty bit of inward gazing. Yet she’s been picking up the pace in recent weeks, embracing more upbeat melodies and floor-centric sounds. Latest creation “Young Young Adult. features one of her stickiest productions yet, a house-derived bouncer accented by glistening keyboard notes.

Yet in that simplicity, she still constructs something that sounds full of life. Listen above.
