The fascinating singer and recording artist known as Sannere returns with a soft, elemental new record titled “PULA.”
Ten songs into this run, and “PULA” pulls the focus toward something simpler than the last few tracks. “Pula” means rain, and after “LETAILANA” reopened new territory, this one settles into something more natural and grounding. It feels less like a plot twist and more like a breath.
It’s quieter than “LETAILANA,” pulling back the warmth for something closer to stillness. The arrangement gives plenty of space for silence between each phrase.
Sannere’s delivery matches that stillness completely, his voice sitting low and unhurried throughout. There’s less urgency here than anywhere else in the run so far, almost meditative in pace. Ten records deep, he still finds new ways to slow things down.
Lyrically, “PULA” leans into renewal and cleansing, using rain as a natural symbol for release after everything the run has carried. It doesn’t explain itself too directly, letting the imagery do most of the work instead. That subtlety fits the song’s quiet nature well.
Ten songs into this journey, “PULA” offers a moment of pause rather than another turn in the story. Sannere lets the project breathe here after “LETAILANA” opened things back up. Sometimes the most honest move is simply stepping back.
