Hollywood Forever

A 15 track electronic album (24m 10s) — released May 7th 2021 on unseelie

While under lockdown in Los Angeles last year, Dasychira frequently visited the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Walking from their apartment on Vine Street to Toto the Dog's Memorial, they would step down streets paved with plaques of many lost stars. It felt ironic that these icons had spent most of their lives creating a memory of themselves that even they wouldn't even get to see.

Hollywood Foreverponders that if life were to last forever, there would be no reason to cement any type of legacy. In this age, everything feels limitless because of ubiquitous connectivity, but so finite due to the fragility of life. Perhaps, through imagination and memory, ghosts can live on in any timeline which they are conjured.

Broadcasted live from the MonstroTV headquarters, on a phantom frequency hosted by Yikii. Additional voice acting by Charlotte Free. Written in quarantine between March–June 2020.

This release sees Dasychira embrace the mixtape format––featuring everything from pop vocals to trap production, trance bubble synths, carnival melodies and spoken word poems.

Two singles have already been released, B340 and Sunset & Wine. The video for B340 was filmed on the infamous Queen Mary ghost ship, also directed by Guilherme Santos and starring Dasychira and Charlotte Free.
