#ARCA #SOPHIE #DorianElectra #HyperpopReaction
Oil of Every Pearl's Un-Insides Reaction coming next week peeps!! Let me tell you it's a GOOD vid 🤯
Do PRODUCT too!
oh i just know you loved "it's okay to cry"
@@caiokamada5536 👀
oh my gosh thts wonderful!!! im sure it was an eye opening experience :)) i rly loved this reaction as well, great selection of artists to react to
omg do KicK iii
Arca is actually the Mozart of our time. If you want a good taste of Arca as an artist I feel like Kick III shows her more industrial side while Kick V or her self titled album can display her more traditional and compositional side.
My favorite arca fact is she has been one of bjorks key producers for a few years now 😋😋 all of utopia was Sophie
Would love a full reaction to Caroline Polachek’s “Pang”! I know you would love it. It’s definitely on the more melodic and chill side of the genre and Caroline’s voice is phenomenal ❤️
Exactly 🙄he won't listen....I was like he's gonna love that album 🙄🙄🙄ik he can see this comment so babe you betta react
💯💯💯
As a diagnosed ADHD person the hyperpop to me makes everything go in my rythm and that makes me feel calmed at the end. its like a company through my constant movement that sometimes makes me anxious. (Sorry if my english is kinda bad, but my first lenguage is spanish)
Me too!!! It helps me concentrate a lot!
Literally me too
Chika me sucede igual
i don't have adhd but i do have a LOT of anxiety and i feel the same thing listening to hyperpop, it's so relaxing, you described it perfectly
28:47 PRADA/RAKATA Arca
thankssss
With hyperpop, especially Dorian, SOPHIE and Arca, I tend to find the freakiness, the surreal/uncanny elements, just the most strange and terrifying parts the most entertaining and cathartic as someone who often feels alien and like a freak of nature sometimes, and expressing that part of myself or releasing that part through listening to that kind of stuff is, again, very cathartic for me, especially when songs with such relatable topics like Ram It Down exist
Totally
Dorian deserves a full reaction! I think you’d enjoy the Flamboyant album as a much easier place to start lol
Luscent is probably traumatized! I wish they listened to Dorian's first few songs like High Heels, Jackpot, etc
As someone with adhd, I feel like hyper pop is one of very few things in the world that can keep my mind busy completely on it’s own.
The album Ram It Down comes from is a metal, step edm, hyperpop fusion. Flamboyant is a lot more softer album and I feel like youd personally enjoy more.
Amazed that nobody has mentioned Hannah Diamond yet! Her song Hi is just the perfect distillation of that sort of early social media, MySpace, Y2K, 14-year-old girl in her bedroom imagining herself as a pop star kinda vibe (and I mean that in the best way). And the music video elevates that even further.
Slayyyter is so good you'll love her, she's so much fun, Mine, Hello Kitty, and Clouds are my fave tracks
Throatzilla is amazing too, better not be slept on
@@tovi3280 Trrrruuuuuuueeeee
Clouds and Cowboys are it for meee
troubled paradise is so underrated too!
Troubled paradise deserved better
slayyyter's troubled paradise era does go more pop than hyperpop, if u were expecting something along the lines of charli or sophie her self-titled mixtape features a lot of electronic and glitchy sounds like that :> + a collab with ayesha erotica and her production in some of the songs
Arca não é hyperpop, ela faz experimental
as someone with anxiety, listening to hyperpop doesnt give me much space to think when i'm listening to it, it can be really satisfying
aaaaahhhh so excited for the Sophie reaction next week !!! I'd tell you to listen to Dorian's "Flamboyant" (I think that whole album is way more pop-ish too) but I know people commented it before 😬 Also, you talked about the emotions that hyperpop creates and I honestly dont even know, i listen to it a lot and sometimes it weirdly calms me, sometimes it just scratches my brain a little and makes me wanna move a lot. and also matches the fast pacing thoughts I have as an hyperactive person 🕴
and since this comment it's already so long and I already commented twice I'm just gonna tell you something: I talked about your first hyperpop video with Alice Longyu Gao and not only she watched it but also really liked it!! I thought that was rly cool!!
Ram it Down feels like a song you'd hear in a rave. They have a couple of songs that aren't really hyperpop (jackpot, Clitopia, Vibrator, and Drag). You will probably really enjoy them
Shygirl should've made it into this list with her EP, ALIAS.
You will definitely like "Crush" the album by "That kid"
It has the ayesha and slayyyter fun 2000s vibes, its so cool.
AND OBVIOUSLY YOU GOTTA START LISTEN TO LIZ
agreed!! we need that kid reactions
YESSS crush is such a masterpiece
WAIT UR SO RIGHT i feel like luscent would love that kid, he has the 2000s electronic vibes but turned up to 11 + unapologetically gay af , crush is one of my fave hyperpop records 😻
Omggg I’m dying to know what Dorian song you react to! One of my favorite artists ever!
listen to that kid !! mile high club, boost mobile and the entire 'crush' album is soooo good
Please react to Kick iii by Arca. It will blow your mind!!
if you ever do another one of these, please include nothing more to say (vocals) by sophie! it's one of my favorite sophie songs of all time and it is brutally underrated.
Sería genial un vídeo sobre el álbum homónimo de Arca, es muy bueno
❤️
You're right, Arca isn't hyperpop
Yeah, she isn't hyperpop at all, might have 1 or 2 elements in some songs idk, but folks call everything hyperpop nowadays
she’s not hyper pop but she’s trans so people toss her into the “queer genre” which is pretty annoying
@@andreja9425 I think it’s also that she’s pretty close to the hyperpop scene of artists, she interacts with many people from there and has also collaborated with some of them, so that’s why she’s thrown into the mix. Same with Kim Petras, her music isn’t remotely hyperpop but she’s close to the artists from the scene so she’s lumped in with them sometimes
a few things i wanted to mention while watching this video cuz i really nerd out about this stuff:
1. those ayesha tracks you listened to on what im guessing is spotify or some other streaming service are NOT OFFICIAL!! she essentially went totally off the grid around the end of 2018/beginning of 2019 and pulled all her music from streaming services. those songs that you listened to were illegally uploaded by fans and ayesha receives no money from it
1b. "iconic" was never released. that one minute snippet you heard was a leaked demo. (vbs was officially released before her disappearance though and it slaps, just probably dont listen to it on streaming lol)
2. "hand crushed by a mallet" is literally a song about killing a fly, and im pretty sure laura's verse is form the perspective of said fly
3. one of the people behind "hey qt" (the person you see on the cover, to be specific) still makes music! they go by HYD and are part of pc music!
4. slayyyter's early singles (youll recognize them by the cover art) are much more similar to what you'd expect from hyperpop (she also worked a ton with ayesha erotica back then if you like what she did)
I know people get really salty when talking about hyperpop as a specific genre of music and I totally get why, I mean, it's pretty hard to define what is and what isn't hyperpop, which in the end of the day is used to describe pop music that doesn't sound like something you'd hear in the radio! But I think that, in order to be hyperpop, it has to be at least something close to pop, which does not fit Arca's music. Arca is a producer that has been working under that name for, like, 10 years and most of the music she used to produce in the begining of her career was experimental hip hop and electronic music, and throughout the years she's been more and more hard to pinpoint as anything other than experimental music! And, I mean, if you listen to most of her albums you'll definitely agree that her music is nothing like anything else anyone's doing at the moment (I don't think SOPHIE's songs are hyperpop too but lmao it's hard to simply define why, it's more about listening to their discography and seeing the difference, it's mostly the same reason as Arca, but SOPHIE does indeed have pop songs in her repertoire!), I'd love seeing you react to Arca's self-titled record, you'll definitely understand what I'm trying to say if you do so!
arca has a similar approach to sophie but her influences are way closer to deconstructed club (which in itself is intertwined with the uk garage/bass scene and thus it has some similarities to bubblegum bass and hyperpop but they're completely different stuff), same with artists like shygirl cobrah sega bodega or coucou chloe, they get grouped into the hyperpop sound because it has a similar approach but comes from a different background
@Pablo Labra Fernandez yeah it’s like hyperpops darker grimier cousin or something. Like they’ve got some similarities and kinda influence eachother but they’re unique too
I would love to see you react to the album Troubled Paradise by Slayyyter. Such a good concept album with lots of fun experimental songs with influences of hyperpop, trap, club beats and pop punk. :) love ur channel btw!
love the video! as a hyperpop fan thought id leave some recommendations
any songs from the first album by dorian, flamboyant, its pop and completelly different since my agenda is conceptual music from a pov of an incel lol. great videos to them too
as for gecs, there's plenty more to listen to and never get bored. i'd recomend their colab with skrillex in "torture me" and laura les' single "haunted". "rich bitch juice" by alice longyu gao is peak hyperpop, specially the laura les remix which is my favorite. dylan brady has an album in a project called cake pop and other than the two albuns there's a great mixtape called 100 gecs
speaking of alice, her lp is great for a reaction, i love every track and come on. its called "let's hope heteros fail, learn and retire"
GFOTY is a project with A.G Cook (PC music) production, my faves are "tongue" and "red, silver and blue"
Food house is a duo (Fraxiom and Gupi) whit an album by that tittle. "Thos Moser" is what i send if someone asks whats hyperpop, and the video is perfect. Mos thoser is the continuation, just as good
underscores song spoiled little brat is also very representative of hyperpop, while most of her songs to me are better categorized in other genres.
danny l harle is another awesome artist, "me4u" is what id listen to first. there's plenty more stuff too but thats what id go through first
You would love Caroline Polachek's album Pang
So my gateway drug to hyperpop is edm, I grew up obsessed with edm like Marshmello, Slushii, ookay and San holo in middle school, then I got into charli even more which dipped my toes into the sophie and dorian electra pool back in like 2018, but the reason why I love hyperpop and edm is because ADHD, it gives me quick, constant stimulation, which is bomb, but adhd sometimes makes my love for slow ballads kinda dwindle cuz sometimes my attention doesn't last 5 minutes but I lpve lana so
Not to be mean but if you grew up with Marshmello, you were missing out hard.
Marshmello looked up to deadmau5, but he rejected him because his persona was like a copycat of the mau5head and because his music was extremely lackluster. And he was right lmao
Go listen to Mat Zo, Madeon, Porter Robinson, deadmau5, REZZ, so on and so forth.
Tipper is a bit underground but I have a reserved seat for his music on my PC.
If you're not afraid of ambient techno check out GAS.
There's some cool japanese artists that do electronica as well like my favorites MONDO GROSSO, Towa Tei, and CAPSULE. (Towa Tei is Korean but he is still based in Japan.)
deadmau5 looks up to artists like Savant because he likes complex production. Savant pumps out music like a maniac so a bit of archive panic there.
And if you want extremely experimental electronica, check out Autechre. They're the kings of that scene.
These are mostly the artists you can potentially dance to. I like other artists but I probably already exceeded your quota for attention span.
@@nodezsh I definately know Madeon and Deadmaus, Deadmaus is fine. But I mostly (grew up) this in like middle school with Slushii. Marshmello, Ookay, San holo, Big Gigantic, I prefer the mix of Trap beat drops combined with edm, house in edm is not it for me
@@nodezsh but thanks for the recommendations, will for sure check out love some new music exposure!
I'm sorry but I laughed so much with the ram it down reaction 😭😭😭😭 it's one of my favorite songs by them but I understand how overwhelming it can be specially with Lil Texas and Lil Mariko part at the end 🗣
I’d love to hear you listen to slayyyters album “troubled paradise”, especially her song “clouds” ❤️
oh my god I could watch a 5 hours video of u reacting do Hyperpop, like i realize things I didn't before, when you like dissected the Hyperpop aspects i was like "oh my god that's actually true"
also!! react to Hannah Diamond!! love her style
and oh my god, react to slayyyter's album too
Iconic by Ayesha is actually two and a half minutes long! It just takes a little bit of digging to find the full version, I think it's been restored to Spotify though
whats the name of the Ayesha's songs?
Please react to more Arca stuff, I think you’d really like her self titled as a good jumping off point for the rest of her discography. It’s like a halfway point that contextualizes everything else so it’s easier to understand
i feel that for you the emotional side is never gonna really translate, the emotions in hyperpop generally speak more to people who are deep into internet culture, post-irony and the social anxiety, hyperactivity and just general anxiety that comes with that
fun fact: Slayyyter and ayehsa are bffs and most songs from slayyyter are produced by ayehsa like bff candy devil ghosttt and hello kitty ;)
And also don't forget alone
This might be redundant as other comments have said it but I def think Dorian's album "Flamboyant" is a much better gateway to them that I think you'd enjoy a LOT, it's a lot more smooth and sleek pop but still with that twist. "My Agenda" leans much more intense electronic, metal-inspired sounds which is what Ram it Down is from.
i personally really like “flamboyant” by dorian electra, and i feel like it’s something u would enjoy too
u shld react to arca's kick 3, it'll acc blow your mind, the production is insane INSANE
Please consider reacting to ARCA'S albums kick iii and kickii
Ayesha has some really good songs, but you have to dig around the internet to find
hey Luscent, love the vid, i think it would be really cool if you could react to Lorn - maybe do "YESTERDAY'S PAIN" and "CUT THE ANCHOR" to start as they're released together and can be a nice intro
he's the one that made "ACID RAIN" as well, which is a bit more known/mainstream
I’m ready but also not ready for this video! Love you lots ❤️😍
I know I'm 6 months late but I'd still like to share. This probably won't be seen but whatever.
Firstly, to answer the question of what I get from hyperpop emotionally: A lot of hyperpop is very real, in my opinion. The artists seem to put out music that is from their heart and from their emotions, and often that makes the music really relatable. As you've mentioned, hyperpop is kind of like a "haven" of sorts for people who have felt outcasted by society, especially LGBTQ+ people. This includes myself, and I find solace in hyperpop. I also enjoy the fact that many hyperpop artists are members of the LGBTQ+ community. It's great to see marginalized people overcoming society's hurdles and making strides for themselves. Hyperpop is (in my opinion) very LGBTQ+ oriented, so I feel like I'm in a welcome space when I listen to it. I feel like a lot of hyperpop lyrics mirror my thoughts, which is something I don't really see as much in mainstream music. When I discovered hyperpop I was like "Finally! Someone who understands me." Living in a place where I'm surrounded by people who can't relate to me on an emotional level, it's nice to know that there are people who CAN relate to me on an emotional level.
Secondly, I'd just like to say that you should give Dorian Electra another chance. In this video, you happened to listen to what was literally the most intense, scariest Dorian song there is (in my opinion). Personally I love "Ram It Down" because the satirical anger presented in it is so relatable, but it's also a lot, and it's understandable overwhelming for some listeners. They have a lot of softer, easier-to-listen-to music. Considering that you seem to be into the more melodical songs, I think you'd really like "Career Boy," "Man To Man," and "Daddy Like," which are all part of the album "Flamboyant." I think you'd probably enjoy the album as a whole, but particularly those songs. One thing I'd like to note about Dorian is their music videos. I find that they do a really good job on their music videos, making them very entertaining.
My point is, don't be scared away from Dorian because of "Ram It Down." That's the most intense, stressful Dorian Electra song there is, and a lot of their other music is significantly more gentle! 💚💚😁😁
slayyyter says she doesn’t like being associated with hyperpop as she sees it as “gross weird anime greasy kids “
😂😂
Your sound is so crisp & clear! You must be using great audio equipment!
Please please do a reaction to slayyyters mixtape! Her new album is really good as well but all the classics that made her popular are on her first one like daddy af
As for why I love hyperpop? I love its cute cheekiness. I love the way it pokes fun at the genre, at people, at you the listener. I love how queer-positive it is. That way, I identify with the genre as a whole, based on how unabashedly they represent all kinds of energies. I also love soothing ballads outside of the perceived hyperpop genre, but when I want to listen to something exaggerated, manic, and "young-feeling", I'll listen to hyperpop. It makes me feel like jumping around, it makes me feel like I'm with my people. I also love plenty of other genres, but this genre people have classified generally as "hyperpop" does something special for me. I was a fan of it when people called it "Bubblegum Bass" or even back when people called it "Future Bass". I'm a big fan of experimental production, particularly clean-sounding experimental sounds. So when this new wave of artists came along, they combined it all for me in a package that is irresistible to me. Like candy.
EDIT: Some more adjectives I thought about to describe how I feel about it... playful, energetic, futuristic, quirky, optimistic, party-loving, melodic, mechanical, surreal, romantic, dissonant, bittersweet, sexual, avant-garde, uplifting, abstract, dense, technical, chaotic, aggressive, noisy, light and dark at the same time.
Saying Alice Longyuu Gao is similar to Hey QT is a very apt comparison, since I would say that Hey QT was one of the most influential songs in the entirety of the genre. I'd say Alice Longyuu Gao is incredibly influenced by SOPHIE and A. G. Cook. That might even be an understatement, since I'm pretty sure that without SOPHIE and A. G. Cook, hyperpop would not exist as it does today.
You should definitely listen to Slayyyters new album! I’ve been obsessed. Clouds is my favorite song from it
YES PLEASE
It's soooo good
laura les the female half of 100 gecs released an ep called hello kitty goes to the cemetery and everytime i listen to it i cry. its the most emotional thing i think i've ever heard. i wouldn't call it hyperpop but you can def see what later evolved into 100 gecs with it.
I'm dealing with anger issues since I remember and I find such peace in angry songs like Ram it down (its acutally my first and favourite Dorians song). Loved your reaction, because sometimes I forgot not everyone is screaming internally most of the time and enjoy such songs hah
U need to react to Pang by Caroline! I think you’d love the diversity in sound track by track
A very cool video! If you liked ayesha and slayyyter you can listen to their collab - BFF. And if you want some soft Dorian, then listen to Man to Man or Carreer Boy or Guyliner!
love ur videos and how u break down ur opinions and thoughts on the songs u react to + to see another person react to this wonderful genre for the first time!!!! id love to see u react and share ur thoughts on 1000 gecs, 100 gecs' debut album, its an absolute rollercoaster except the rollercoaster was set on fire and ur in a sugar rush the entire trip xDD
The anti drop is called a reverse drop and is synonymous with all Psy trance especially the progressive type.
Cha Ching by slayyyter is literally so powerful 😩
Looooved this reaction. Would love to see a full Arca album, some songs may be more hyper pop then others! Each album and song is soooo unique!! Would love to see your opinion ❤️❤️❤️ any album, kicks?
I'm actually editing my kick I reaction at the moment! It'll be out next week 🥰🥰
I can't wait...
you should for sure check out Haunted by Laura Les who's 1 of the 2 members of 100 gecs
the oyster part is SENDING me
you should do Glitch Princess- yeule
Definitely do Slayyyter’s self-titled mixtape!
Not Ram it down being recommended instead of Career Boy or Man to Man or something lmaoooo
Tommy Cash 'X-Ray' is also really dynamic, you should really react to that song
you should react to "of course I still love you" by dylan brady it's like a calmer version of hyperpop and its one of the most sonically entrancing and beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Troubled paradise is so good !
Just stumbled upon your channel and I gotta say it. I look at Dan and get Keira Knightley vibes. I don't know what it is, but I'm embracing it, I'm at peace with it and I'm staying. Subscribed! 💖 Also, you should review Dawn Richard's music.
i love the craziness of songs like ram it down, i love how it's shocking. I love hyperpop for this reason (the short version of why). In general the genre is very camp.
love all of these artists!!
if you want some more poppy dorian electra listen to jackpot, career boy, flamboyant, adam and steve, etc their earlier stuff is much more pop
hi! just listened to your video, omg it's so good!
oh you'll looooove shygirl
Rest in peace Sophie 😢❤
Slayyyter is a star! I want her to have all the recognition she deserves!
PLEASE DO MORE AYESHA
I think people were asking for “Icon” by Ayesha not “iconic”
I feel your hands on my thigh 💀💀💀💀
I cried 😂😂😂😂
Pls react to dorians whole discography, its not all crazy heavy, and they are quite literally a sound genius!!😩
I’m sorry I missed this yesterday
Just discovered Arca, SOPHIE, Björk etc. for me..I love it so much!!!!!
born this way by lady gaga in the back... exactly
You should try GFOTY or Hannah Diamond, they slaps!💖
SOPHIE - PRODUCT
Caroline is just magical... Listen to fka twigs - meta angel
hands crushed by a mallet is actually about a fly😭😭😭
i really want the Trouble Paradise full reaction please
Lmao everyone reccomended ram it down hahaha! I mean... its definitely their peak (in my humble opinion) but its probably not a good gateway song haha. Career boy and also man to man are probably better songs to start with when getting into their stuff.
ARCA ISNT HYPERPOP
Thanks so much i like it arca and Dorian electra it's amazing and charli XCX only awesome
My fav Dorian song is My agender it's so good
11:26 Caroline Polachek - Ocean of Tears 💙
Ok so I just found you and I think you're awesome ! Please listen to Time from ARCA I really kind of love it
rip SOPHIE 😔
I Wait for more reactions
Dorian Electra e arca são os melhores aaaaaaa
Did you just talk during Troubled Paradise bridge 🧍
React Valéria Almeida Álbum "Secrets"
react to miss slayyyter
In Ram it Down, the feature was Lil Mariko, I highly suggest her if you’re planning on a part three, she definitely has more intense elements of hyperpop but I think you’d enjoy her
