OUT NOW: Carlita Releases New Album 'Telepathy' via Ninja Tune

Today, Turkish-Italian producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist Carlita releases her sophomore album, Telepathy, out now via Ninja Tune. Featuring Justine Skye and SOFI TUKKER, the project expands Carlita’s club-rooted sound through pop songwriting and a broad cast of collaborators.

Telepathy, as Carlita describes it, is "thinking about somebody or something with no attempt at possessing that thing, only for it to come into your life anyway." The album is about the kinds of communication that never get spoken: the invisible thread running between a person and their past, between lovers, between someone and the world around them. The record is feminine, driving and groovy, with a dance-pop subtlety as the throughline across the tracks.

Carlita’s records work like perfume: they return to you later, attached to a person or a memory. Telepathy moves a room but stays with you long after, sitting somewhere between a pop record and a night spent dancing in a smoky basement without compromising either side. The album features contributions from SOFI TUKKER, Justine Skye, Malive, Stevie Appleton, Paige Cavell and Cleo Simone.

The world around the album was developed with creative director Pedro Damasceno (@pedrose), and the cover and album photographs were shot by photographer Rafael Pavarotti (@rafaelpavarotti_), whose recent work includes Charli xcx, Madonna, Tyla, and Addison Rae. The imagery lands between intimacy and editorial finesse. The cover evokes magical realism, leaning into the invisible threads that tie the spaces between what we understand. It extends Carlita’s long-running relationship with fashion, pushing a subtle yet idiosyncratic creative universe that follows her last album, Sentimental, and its cover shot by Louis Browne (@louis_browne).

Carlita has performed for YSL Beauty, collaborated with brands including Louis Vuitton, Chanel and FENDI, and appeared in Vogue Italia, GQ Italia and L’Officiel. Her Senza Fine event series has further brought music, fashion and art together through immersive experiences staged around New York Fashion Week.
