MISTER MEYERS makes sure to put something out when the opportunity still strikes hot – that is to say, the wave of releases on January 1st that you can see piled on obscure Bandcamp features or the early RYM year charts. While he has been putting out music for the past few years – leaning a lot more on his bedroom pop niche – his last released single back in December 2023, ‘GOOD GOD PENELOPE’, shifts his style in a 180-degree direction where he doused his melodic vocals with effects amidst groove-centric indie rock. Now entering 2024, ‘We Are Stardust’ boils itself to deep-fried textures that go on a consistent hot streak, tossed and turned over with MISTER MEYERS’ tripped-out snarkiness as the beat twinkles and buzzes on the hazy atmosphere before it suddenly suffocates itself with a heavier glitchy backdrop that eventually ends the song.

‘We Are Stardusts’ with all of its soaked-up dense production and warbled melodies completes MISTER MEYERS’ 360-degree transition into his eclectic hip-hop dabbled hyperpop flair that overall sticks the landing where his creative firepower and experimentation just charges throughout this song. His attempt to create stardust has been wrapped in pretty flowers before, but right now, he makes them combust with flammable chemicals.
