Everyone has heard of dream pop before, but its time to experience nightmare pop. That’s the genre that Australian lo-fi artist Katie Dey describes her music as, and after listening to tracks from her forthcoming album, ‘Flood Network’, it’s easy to see why. The ethereal elegance and cacophonic glitch of the compositions wax and wane to create unique soundscapes.

A perfect example is ‘Fear O’ The Light’, one of the first tracks to be unveiled from the aforementioned album. This is twisted pop music from the dark side; otherworldly, distorted, and uncompromising. While there are moments of spine-tingling delicacy, the dissonant chords that meet repetitive and rattling drum loops make this an incredibly beautiful noise.
