Background

In 2023, Natalie Lu a.k.a. Wisp released her debut single, "Your Face". After a friend's recommendation, she recorded vocals over an instrumental by the producer Grayskies. [1] The song went viral on TikTok and brought her a cult following. [2] In June 2023, Wisp began working on new material that would become Pandora. [3] She worked on material at home [4] and in Los Angeles, until the EP's release. [3] Due to the songs often dealing with negative topics, she decided to write a happier song with "See You Soon". [5] The song's central theme is being besotted with a certain person and wanting to spend your time with them. [6] [7] Ashley Bardhan of Pitchfork said “See you soon” starts with the sound of the shrieking wind. [8] The song had racked up multiple streams. [9]
