REQ: Moment Ocean of Dreams MEGAMIX, a hallow moment

Scottish music producer and indie game developer, hallow is a name that Soundcloud vets have seen between many a parenthesis. Known for their work producing for early digicore scene greats like Juno, twikipedia, funeral, yurms, and angelus. Like many of us, they were first moved to produce music in the early 10s after falling down the Youtube tutorial EDM pipeline, exposing themselves to the worlds of Monstercat, VGM, Skrillex, and Virtual Riot, and recently they have come back full circle. They are currently developing an indie rhythm RPG game called PETRICHOR, inspired heavily by games such as Yume Nikki and DS-era Pokémon games, and their recent solo music has taken on the sound of 2010s dubstep and nightcore—the moment just feels right.

‘Ocean of Dreams MEGAMIX’ is spiritually aligned with these pockets of the mid 10s internet, but sonically it is more of a throw forward than a throwback. There’s heavy use of all the latest tech in bass music: from the pitch mapped synths of color bass to the monstrous spectral growls of modernly maximized DnB. Earwormy melodies put years spent in hyperpop discords to good use, while dancefloor-optimized drum loops lay the base for years to come.

“i want to make music with techniques that are modern but still holds a lot of the style and feeling of where i came from very close. getting the balance right is really fun ^_^”
