Rewriting the Narrative: miso808’s ‘bedtime stories mp3’ Blends Childhood Memories with Bold Alternative Sounds

miso808’s debut EP, bedtime stories mp3, delivers an enthralling blend of alternative pop and R&B, weaving Eastern and Western influences into a soundscape both nostalgic and forward-thinking...



The Shanghai-raised, LA-based artist uses the EP to reimagine childhood tales as poignant explorations of adult complexities, creating a bilingual, genre-defying collection that brims with cinematic intensity.


The focus track, ‘misirlou’, stands out as a fearless reinterpretation of the iconic surf-rock classic. Its sultry, bilingual verses glide over an evocative backdrop, blending hypnotic Eastern melodies with a commanding, modern pop production. The bold hook injects a radio-ready edge while maintaining the experimental essence of the EP. It’s as seductive as it is empowering—a testament to miso808’s ability to reshape the familiar into something distinctly hers.


‘Crown’ opens with stark, intimate piano before swelling into an electrifying, synth-laden crescendo, reflecting the tension and triumph of self-realisation. Meanwhile, ‘1001’ adds a Mandarin twist to One Thousand and One Nights, its modern narrative steeped in rich textures and rhythmic intrigue.


Each track contributes to a larger narrative that’s both deeply personal and universally resonant. bedtime stories mp3 not only showcases miso808’s inventive artistry but cements her as a trailblazer in alternative music, offering an immersive journey through sound, memory, and identity.
