Norwegian sensation Whammyboy is setting the stage ablaze in 2023 with his captivating and self-styled “space-pop” sound, which is aiming to reign atop everyone’s euphoric playlists. Continuing this energetic stride, the artist has released latest single ‘Chop It’ along with an accompanying music video.
This title holds a literal connotation, with Noah, the artist behind Whammyboy, explains in the quote below. The production approach is reminiscent of Daft Punk, although it evolves into something uniquely Whammyboy, thanks to its offbeat bass and enigmatic lyrics.
Whammyboy’s music boasts a contemporary flair while echoing a nostalgic undertone, stemming from his childhood adoration for artists like Eiffel 65 and Tiesto. ‘Chop It’ weaves modern production finesse with hints of 80s influences drawn from his upbringing.
With the Space Pop Vol 1 EP slated for release on September 8th, Whammyboy’s pulsating live performances and infectious tracks promise to propel him to greater heights in the realm of electrifying space-pop.
“It’s called that basically because I’m chopping some sounds…it’s very literal. The technique was inspired by Daft Punk, production-wise. But then it turned into something else, thanks to the offbeat bass from my childhood again. It really has me in its grip! With the lyrics, they’re very kind of vague, expressionistic kind of lyrics.”
