Used to love me some A G Cook, GFOTY, PC Music shit back in the early 2010’s. Never heard it called hyperpop however, always heard it called future pop. Either way hyper seems more fitting and I’ll definitely sub :D
Here are some examples for the artists that I love. They’ve all made hyperpop but aren’t exclusively hyperpop artists.
100 gecs is probably the most well known, SugarCrash! (song, not artist) is one of the early big ones, Glaive also blew up through hyperpop.
My personal two favorites are brakence and underscores. For brakence, the whole hypochondriac album is, in my opinion, musically absolutely exceptional. Some people don’t like the lyrics but y’know, some people love it and some hate it.
For underscores, the above track is from fishmonger, which is her main hyperpoppy album, but my favorite of her stuff came after, with the album Wallsocket. Both of them have really unique music.
Hyperpop is an electronic music movement and loosely defined microgenre that originated in the early 2010s in the United Kingdom. It is characterised by an exaggerated or maximalist take on popular music, and typically integrates pop and avant-garde sensibilities while drawing on elements commonly found in electronic, rock, hip hop, and dance music.

Rules
The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.
1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.
A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.
B. No illegal content.
C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.
D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.
E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.
2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
“Can we really call it hyperpop if this beat is more digigrind mixed up with cybercore?”
Cybergrind and digicore
In the calm light of day, I can see I did get the lyrics backwards.
lmao are these even real genres
