ultra caro

French-born and London-based, ultra caro (formerly known as caro♡) is an artist, producer, and singer known for her collaboration with powerhouse cult label PC Music, founded by A. G. Cook. A founding member of the neo-shoegaze outfit Planet 1999, Caro — alongside bandmates Charles and Alex — were the first full band signed to PC Music, where they released their debut ‘Devotion’ EP. As Planet 1999, the group also collaborated with Charli xcx on her album 'Charli' and supported labelmate Hannah Diamond on her French tour.  Then, Caro launched her solo project, crafting dreamy, experimental soundscapes that blend melancholic synth-pop with haunting beauty. Caro’s self-produced works merge ethereal textures with introspective storytelling, earning her recognition as one of the most innovative voices in the post-hyperpop realm. Her music draws on the landscapes the French Riviera, youthful fantasies, and the delicate balance between optimism and longing. Songs like 'hide me here' and 'moonrise' highlight her signature style, ranging from intimate instrumentals to stripped-back productions. With her unique vision and ties to PC Music’s artistry-first ethos, Caro continues to push the boundaries of experimental pop, crafting music that is both arrestingly beautiful and a testament to the innovation of female producers redefining the genre.
