yeule is the manifested reflection of Nat Ćmiel. An ongoing project since 2012, yeule’s music is as ethereal as it is dynamic, reflective of their nomadic upbringing. Though they grew up and attended school in Singapore for most of their life, their family traveled often, developing emotional connections with places far from home that left them searching, unmoored, putting forth a creation that is in constant metamorphosis.
Obsessed with tinkering and discovery, they began by building their own synths. There is a complex, intuitive, and deeply personal nature to yeule's music making. With a launchpad, keyboard, and microphone, they morph their original cinematic classical compositions into harsh and glittery electronica. Their first full length, Serotonin II, is the fully realized result of this process, resonating with their “mutable self-expression.” They describe this as “the stifling psychological haze turned into perfume.” Death, rebirth, and most mysteriously, the places in between the two hard realities are explored in depth.
Visually, yeule’s world is dreamy and breaches into the unreal, with the name yeule initially being inspired by Final Fantasy XIII-2, where a character dies in a thousand timelines because of a break in the fabric of time itself. They are born again eternally, and always meet the same
fate. In this way the artist relates when they feel themselves destroying the older parts of themself, reinventing, born again from memories both real and fabricated. In their own words, “When I came up with the yeule project, acted as a vessel for me to archive important points in my life. Each song released in its respective era reflects that part of myself, that’s most probably gone by the time you read this.” yeule is forever trying to chip away at their own identity so that they might absorb something different, foreign, the unknown force to which they are drawn.

“It's difficult for my mind to stay in one place. I can go back to revisit the person I was in my dreams. I see them as multiple people. Sometimes they talk to me, but I've cut most of them off because they start screaming in my ear.” - yeule, 2019
