Hyperpop on vinyl: The analog thrill of music born on the internet

PC Music, 100 gecs and the architects of pop chaos

Hyperpop traces its roots to the PC Music collective, a London-based label founded in 2013 by producer A.G. Cook. Alongside visionary artists like Sophie, whose 2013 single 'Bipp' stunned critics, Hannah Diamond, GFOTY and Danny L Harle, the collective twisted pop conventions into something entirely new: helium-pitched vocals, saccharine-yet-abrasive melodies, warped basslines and an unapologetically internet-native aesthetic. In 2019, American duo 100 gecs (Dylan Brady and Laura Les) detonated the genre with '1000 gecs,' a cult album where pop-punk, dubstep and Eurotrance collide in glorious chaos. Charli XCX then propelled hyperpop further into the spotlight with her mixtape 'Pop 2' (2017) and the lockdown-fuelled album 'how i'm feeling now' (2020). Owning these records on vinyl means capturing the raw energy of tracks originally crafted for earbuds and laptop speakers, a thrilling paradox that curious collectors and audiophiles find irresistible.

Pressings, labels and tips for building a hyperpop vinyl collection

Hyperpop vinyl releases often come in eye-catching limited editions: think the neon-green pressing of '1000 gecs' or the transparent vinyl of Sophie's 'Product.' Essential labels to follow include PC Music, Dog Show Records, Mad Decent, YEAR0001 and Atlantic (for Charli XCX's output). Artists like Dorian Electra ('Flamboyant') and A.G. Cook ('7G,' 'Apple') further enrich the catalogue with carefully crafted pressings. Watch out for unofficial editions that sometimes circulate for high-demand titles, always double-check the label and barcode. To track down these coveted records at the best price, Vinyles.com compares offers from multiple specialised merchants in real time: you pick the seller that suits you, and the site redirects you to complete your purchase with full transparency.

Frequently asked questions

What defines hyperpop and how did the genre come to be?
Hyperpop is a maximalist genre that emerged in the early 2010s, pushing pop conventions to the extreme through heavy autotune, saturated production, abrasive melodies and eclectic influences from trance, dubstep, emo and bubblegum bass. Its origins are closely tied to A.G. Cook's PC Music label, before being popularised globally by 100 gecs and Charli XCX.
Does Vinyles.com sell records directly or is it a price comparator?
Vinyles.com is a price comparator, not a direct seller. The site aggregates listings from multiple specialised merchants and redirects you to your chosen seller to complete the purchase. Shipping terms, delivery fees and the record's condition are therefore determined by the merchant you select.
Which hyperpop albums are the most sought-after on vinyl?
Among the most coveted titles are 100 gecs' '1000 gecs' (often available in coloured editions), Sophie's 'Product,' Charli XCX's 'Pop 2' and 'how i'm feeling now,' Dorian Electra's 'Flamboyant,' and A.G. Cook's '7G' and 'Apple.' Since these pressings are frequently limited runs, using a comparator like Vinyles.com helps you spot the best deals available across different sellers.
