bo en | Interview
Artist/producer bo en (@boenyeah) solidified his Internet Music legacy with his debut album, Pale Machine, released in 2013 by net label Maltine Records - an immensely formative album for many early SoundCloud users.
Despite never releasing a follow-up LP, the past decade has seen bo en only grow in popularity through the continued exposure of his debut (including its use in the video game Omori) and his composition work for various other indie games.
In late 2023, bo en returned with Pale Machine 2, a celebration of his debut full-length that consists of "reimaginings" of the original's track list - a bookend to the Pale Machine era and a springboard into whatever he chooses to do next.
bo en sat down with me to chat about his career, both versions of Pale Machine, his 12-date U.S. tour, and many other things. Enjoy!

This includes questions of diversity and exploitation/abuse of minors, as well as how to mak...

Hausu (1977): The Illusion of Cinema
มุมมอง 23K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Hausu (1977), the career-defining film of Japanese director Nobuhiko Obayashi, is one of the most singular movie-going experiences in horror history. Intensely stylized and self-aware, Hausu uses experimental filmmaking techniques (especially in regards to its editing and colorful, chaotic matte compositions) to create multiple cinematic worlds-layers of reality that are divorced from each othe...

    El Guincho did Hyper-pop already in the 2014's or so when Charli was still doing traditional pop songs... Guess who produced the most hyper-popish albums by Rosalia and Charli ? El guincho

    The most unbelievable thing is everybody (out of Japan) only know Nobuhiko Obayashi because of "House"...but throughout his 50 years career he wouldn't made a single one movie like that. And he made true masterpieces ("Tomorrow", "Lonely Heart", "The Rocking Horsemen", "Labyrinth of Cinema", "The Reason"...).

    Some lady Gaga tracks I think are also worth mentioning. Not necessarily that they are hyperpop or were precursors, but they helped prime mainstream audiences for qualities associated with hyperpop: heavy synth, short motifs, themes of consumerism, self-referential to pop/pop culture. Mostly tracks from the fame and artpop including poker face, paparazzi, starstruck, aura, g.u.y., swine, Donatella.
