Hear me out: everyone can have a shot at making chart-ready, mainstream pop music. The recipe is there for the taking. No need to exercise creative thinking. Well, Canadian genius SUUNCAAT wasn’t satisfied with that, so much so that she went out of her way to craft her unique and authentic musical universe, a riveting smorgasbörd of influences and production techniques set to innovate and revolutionize.
‘Neighborhood’ is the result of such a powerful process, a way to affirm the project’s quirky artistic identity while pushing the boundaries of what we consider pop music. Some would call it hyperpop, but that’s perhaps a reductive term in this case. Boasting a fast-paced, trance-flavoured electronic beat, the record is as digital and nostalgic as it could, embarking on glitch-ridden breakdown and fragmenting SUUNCAAT’s otherworldly vocals into a million pieces.
It’s all down to the visionary production work of the Montreal artist herself; a multidisciplinary creative, she’s been searching for the right formula for a while now. It appears that’s now been found, and we couldn’t be more excited to hear more from the project. Calling her music ‘METAPOP’ is a strong hint at what’s on the horizon…
