Poni Explores Darkness and Despair on Hellscape EP

Poni’s Hellscape EP delivers haunting midtempo bass and gothic lyricism in her HypnoVizion debut. Listen now.

Dark electronic artist Poni has debuted on HypnoVizion with Hellscape, a gripping three-track EP that delves into themes of torment, heartbreak, and despair. Now available on all streaming platforms, the EP showcases Poni’s evocative sound, blending haunting melodies with midtempo bass and gothic storytelling.

The EP features standout collaborations, including twin sister duo Satin Puppets on “Leeches” and Nashville-based singer-songwriter Notelle on “Leave You in the Dark.” Poni also lends her own vocals to “Conceptual Reality,” completing a trio of tracks that explore unsettling narratives and emotional depth.

Poni shares the inspiration behind the project: “Calamitous times and places that are void of hope, Hellscape tells a story of three vastly unpleasant circumstances. Vengeance and how the murdered haunts the murderer. Heartbreak and being in a toxic relationship with a narcissist, ultimately leaving them to ruin their own lives. Despair and how lost and brainwashed society is. All of which are tied together by the sinister workings of Apep, the demon of darkness and destruction (my reimagination). Is there really no hope though? That’s up for interpretation.”

Hellscape offers a compelling blend of dark electronic elements, rich narrative layers, and Poni’s creative reimagination of mythological themes. Stream the EP today and immerse yourself in its chilling soundscapes.
