Episode 6 | the glitch and glamour of hyperpop

Boomers beware! In this episode we listen to one of the latest trends in music, one that stretches the boundaries of pop music and adds elements from countless other genres - it's hyperpop! We talk about the genre's popularity on social media and how it is becoming known as the music of the new counter culture (aka alt tiktok). Warning: The music of this episode may hurt the sensitive, aging ears of people over the age of 30 ;)
