‘Yeah, it showed up last Tuesday just after lunch. Doesn’t usually get closer than about twenty feet, but it’s always floating somewhere nearby.’
‘I can’t really try and scare it off at this point. The kids have gotten attached. Even named it “Polly Pocket Dimension” and everything.’
‘Look, the biggest thing I have seen them try and feed it was a broken tablet. And they know better than to feed it anything with an active data plan.’
are you a death spells enjoyer who wants to find similar music but doesn't quite know where to look? if so, this playlist is for you!
nothing above, nothing below was my introduction to digital hardcore and heavy electronic music in general. this genre is so much fun to explore, but because it's a little bit ~underground~, it can be difficult to know where to start. so this playlist is meant to serve as a jumping-off point for anyone who's interested!
i tried to feature a variety of artists who capture different elements of death spells' sound and atmosphere. they span a handful of sub-genres and include a few digital hardcore pioneers of the '90s—hopefully there's something here for everyone. this isn't an exhaustive list though, and i'll probably keep tinkering with it, so let me know if you have any suggestions i didn’t add! <3

100 gecs is a hyperpop band from Missouri, USA. The duo's debut album helped consolidate the genre and is the first band many people think of when it comes to hyperpop.

Laura Les' solo work is highly experimental electronic pop. Generally more stripped back than 100 gecs but maintains the nightcore vocals that helped relieve gender dysphoria early in her career.
Released a new album of modular synth pieces, inspired by a hypothetical 1970s sapphic vampire movie set in the sun-blasted badlands. Art is by the fantastic @frogboiart . Check it out and let me know what you think.
