1. Pitched-up, hard-tuned vocals — the signature
Crank auto-tune and pitch vocals up for that bright, synthetic voice.
2. Distorted 808s and synths — go loud
Saturate and clip everything - hyperpop wants aggression, not polish.
3. Bright candy synths — the hooks
Supersaws, bells and plucks - big and in-your-face.
4. Maximal arrangement — more is more
Glitches, pitch risers and chaos. Break the 'clean mix' rules on purpose.
5. Slam the master — embrace clipping
Loud and distorted is the aesthetic - push it harder than feels safe.
