Editor's note

Ultra Nate's steady hand in house music

A vocalist whose clear, direct presence has anchored dance floors since the early '90s.

For a quick sense of her, put on 'Free' and then 'Every Now & Then'. That's the through-line.

Her breakthrough single 'Free' arrived just as house music was finding a wider audience, and it stuck. Songs like 'Automatic' and 'Love Is The Only Drog' keep that energy alive with grooves built for movement and lyrics about empowerment. She's never really left the scene, a fact underscored by later tracks like 'You're Free' with Icona Pop.

She emerged in the early 1990s with 'Free'. Albums like 'Blue Notes in the Basement' and 'Stranger Than Fiction' followed, and a 2017 release called 'She's Back' signaled her ongoing connection to the clubs.
