Kaela - Supraliminal [Vinyl] Kaela is a genre-blurring singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer based in Los Angeles. Her debut solo album Supraliminal was released on Other Suns, the label founded by M83’s Anthony Gonzalez, who remarked: “This album takes me places I’ve never been before,” calling Kaela an “intriguing and fantastical artist.” Written and produced in her LA studio, Supraliminal is an immersive journey through ambient textures, experimental pop structures, and analog synth landscapes. The title refers to the psychological concept of information existing above the threshold of conscious awareness. “I’m interested in the moment something crosses that threshold,” Kaela explains, “when a hidden truth rises to the surface, whether through memory, art, or intuition.” Supraliminal transports listeners to a spectacular new world in a sonic sandbox of glitter. Shifting seamlessly between psychedelic ambience and energetic, beat-driven tracks, the album defies easy classification. Shimmering synthesizers, analog textures, and transcendental vocals animate a colorful, futuristic soundscape where surrealism meets subconscious messaging, inner demons meet the higher self, and childlike wonder communes with deep grief. Kaela describes the album as a “holographic world” that balances innocence and revelation, introspection and adventure. Critics have praised Supraliminal for its ambitious scope. Bandcamp called it “super expansive,” while Musikexpress described it as “an analog waking dream.” Kaela is also known for her long-standing role as a key member of M83, contributing to both live and studio projects since 2016, including the band’s 2023 album Fantasy and its worldwide tour. With Supraliminal, she fully steps into her own artistic identity, crafting a deeply layered and visionary debut. At once cerebral and visceral, cosmic and intimate, it’s a record that doesn’t just ask to be heard; it asks to be felt.
