With an essence of transformative colour, WUNDER BETA’s new single ‘Lost Ourselves’ lands like a warm wave of feeling. As the track unfolds, it glows with synth layers, ambient textures, and acoustic flickers, calling the listener to lift their hands to the sky, sway with strangers, and surrender to the moment.
The release follows WUNDER BETA’s hypnotic debut ‘Waiting Here’, which garnered support from Wonderland, Earmilk and others for a magnetic blend of intimacy, emotional vocals and synth-driven allure. With Lost Ourselves, she dives even deeper into the emotional tension of almost losing something (or someone), before realising how profound the connection truly is. Vocally, Beta delivers a performance rich with feeling and vulnerability, a heartbeat within the production that carries the track’s emotional arc with striking intensity.
‘Lost Ourselves’ pushes the boundaries of contemporary electro-pop music, compelling the arrangement with euphoria, an almost 90s nostalgic, ambient warmth and the Brazilian rhythms of WUNDER BETA’s heritage. The golden hour dreaminess is layered, lush and emotionally charged for dancefloors and headphones alike.
The single offers another glimpse into WUNDER BETA’s debut EP Love You To Beats. Set to be a genre-defying journey of self-discovery and sonic seduction, the EP pairs electro-pop with Bossa Nova inflections and unexpected moments of stillness. It’s a record for deep feelers, daydreamers, and anyone craving connection.
“I wrote this song just after waking up from a vivid dream, while doing my Morning Pages,” she shares. “I often wake up feeling like I lived another life while I was sleeping. The visuals, the emotions, even the smells linger as if all really happened. As I was writing, I realised there was a song hidden in that feeling. It captured that moment when intimacy is slipping through your fingers, when doubt creeps in, but then something shifts. It becomes hope and transcendence. Lost Ourselves is about emotional connection on the edge, when you almost lose it and then realise just how powerful and sublime it really is. Sonically, like the whole EP, it’s a kaleidoscope of electronic sounds woven into my ethereal-dreamy vocals and Brazilian influences, all glowing in the light of the sunset.”
WUNDER BETA is an artistic project built upon immersion and expansion, creating a platform that gives diverse cultures and communities a space for wonder. Igniting a communal spark, the project sets out to encourage people to connect with their deepest intuitions and emotions. Inspired by the risk-taking ethos of Bjork and David Bowie, she iconifies her emphatic brand with a lightning bolt, likening the bridge between the earth and the skies to the connection between artistry and her audience. As she gears up to unveil her debut EP, she made waves with her debut single ‘Waiting Here’ and looks set to further cement her fast-rising acclaim with more new music on the horizon.
Before becoming an artist, WUNDER BETA has been striking her iconic lightning bolt into many creative endeavours. After swapping Brazil for London, she co-founded the BAFTA award-winning video games studio Bossa Games, kick-started a wearable art brand and launched a podcast that delves into human curiosity. She has been listed as one of Forbes’ Top 50 Women In Tech, London Standard’s Most Influential People in Creative Arts whilst also being championed by BBC News, Sky News and Disney Channel.
