That&#8217;s my favorite kind of energy; it&#8217;s just approachable and fun and not afraid to be cringe, but based at the same time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Hyperpop is maybe an amalgamation of all sorts of different styles that have somehow found a collective way into one group,&#8221; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Count Baldor (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/sounds\/splice\/countbaldor-samplepack\" target=\"_blank\">Count Baldor<\/a> comments. &#8220;It&#8217;s also as a collection of different scenes from London or L.A. or New York, or anywhere in the world\u2014it&#8217;s like an internet genre.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I definitely think it&#8217;s more about coming from the same place creatively,&#8221; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/sounds\/splice\/gfoty-samplepack\" target=\"_blank\">GFOTY<\/a> reflects. &#8220;For example, if I&#8217;m working with a producer, it&#8217;s good to know that we have the same ideas\u2014I don&#8217;t think you&#8217;d work with a person and be like, &#8216;Let&#8217;s create this hyperpop tune,&#8217; because I don&#8217;t think that will ever make something good.
