Released on May 2nd via Interstellar Audio, Holographic EP is a striking exploration of contrasts: futuristic yet organic, digital yet analog. With this project, French producer DarKYYComet invites listeners into his unique sonic world — one shaped by years of genre-hopping, experimentation, and a deep-rooted love for music in all its forms.

We caught up with him to dig into his musical journey, creative process, and the vision behind the EP.

Beginnings: From Listener to Creator

“My love for music goes way back,” says DarKYYComet. “I’ve been through so many genres over the years, but it was around 19 when I discovered Drum & Bass — mostly the stuff from 2008 to 2012. I’m a middle school generation guy, really!”

He’s referring to that pivotal era of DnB — between the early jungle roots and today’s modern polish — when artists like Alix Perez, Spectrasoul, and Icicle were reshaping the genre’s boundaries.

It wasn’t until 2020, though, that he decided to take things further.

“I got into production by experimenting with trap, EDM, and electronic music. But after a while, I naturally found myself drawn back to Drum & Bass. That’s been my focus for the last four years.”

Influences: Simplifying Complexity

DarKYYComet’s influences span far beyond drum and bass — and that broad palette plays a key role in shaping his sound.

“I’m influenced by almost every artist and genre I’ve ever listened to. That’s why I enjoy blending styles. Sometimes I feel like music today can be too technical — hard for listeners to connect with. My aim is to simplify those subgenres and keep the energy, but present it differently. The same thing… but different.”

This ethos is audible throughout Holographic EP — a record that prioritizes feel over flash, groove over gridlock.

Staying Consistent in a Fast-Moving Scene

Consistency, he admits, has been the toughest challenge so far.

“Keeping up with releases — whether it’s on labels or as SoundCloud exclusives — it’s not easy. But I want people to know I’m still here. I’m no quitter. Each new release is part of showing that.”

That quiet determination has paid off, with DarKYYComet becoming a familiar presence for DJs and fans drawn to his eclectic yet grounded style.

Concept & Message: The Future is Now

At the heart of Holographic EP lies a question of perspective.

“I wanted to reflect how the idea of ‘futurism’ means different things to different people — often depending on your generation. This EP sits at the intersection of those ideas. A mix of the futuristic and the organic, the digital and the analog.”

It's a concept that plays out not just in the track titles or artwork, but in the textures and pacing of the music itself — gliding pads against jagged basslines, minimal percussion wrapped in evolving synthwork.

Production Process: Tools of the Trade

While much of his style relies on intuition and vibe, DarKYYComet has also been refining his technical approach.

“For the past two years, I’ve been experimenting deeply with compression and sidechaining. Depending on what instrument I want to bring to the front of the mix, I adjust everything around it.”

It’s a subtle but crucial detail — and one that helps his tracks breathe while retaining their impact.

Looking Ahead: A Soulful Expansion

The Holographic EP marks a clear moment of progression, but there’s more on the horizon.

“In June, I’ve got another EP dropping — three tracks on a drum and bass label I can’t name just yet. It’s going to be a more soulful extension of what I’m doing now, but still with that DarKYYComet signature.”

With momentum building and a clear vision for the future, it’s a name worth watching closely.
