Underscores isn’t the only musician thinking about U. Baauer has announced U, his first album in six years. It’s out June 12 on LuckyMe. You can listen to the first single, “Better,” which is packed with four minutes of dopamine-boosting Eurodisco, below.
Featuring collaborators Aluna, Kučka, Brazy, and Betsy, as well as Eli Teplin on piano, U is inspired by the BBC Essential Mixes Baauer listened to as a youth in London. The 16-track album courses through dance music that defined the early aughts, such as Ibiza house, bloghouse, and nu-disco. In short, Baauer aimed to fill U with “super happy music,” he explained in a statement. U is Baauer’s first album since the release of 2020’s Planet’s Mad.
Correction: A previous version of this story incorrectly listed the album release date and where Baauer is from. It has since been updated.
