Alice Longyu Gao
High-gloss, maximalist pop that feels like a sugar rush in a server room. Aggressive, playful, and deeply internet-native dance music for the bold.

Alice Longyu Gao is a pivotal figure in the second wave of hyperpop, bridging the gap between performance art, DJ culture, and experimental pop. Emerging from the New York and LA underground scenes, her sound identity is defined by high-decibel maximalism and a 'bubbly' yet aggressive production style often associated with the PC Music lineage.
Her career arc is marked by high-profile collaborations with genre-definers like Dylan Brady and 100 Gecs, which helped cement her position as a tastemaker in the 'internet-native' music space. Culturally, she represents a specific intersection of Asian-American identity, high-fashion satire, and queer-adjacent club culture. Critical consensus highlights her ability to maintain a DIY, 'bedroom-produced' ethos while achieving a high-gloss, professional sheen that has earned co-signs from mainstream titans like Lady Gaga. Her work is characterized by its restless energy, frequently shifting between genres like trance, industrial rock, and bubblegum pop within a single track, making her a central node in the modern experimental pop web.
