In this episode of It’s Real, Demi Ramos talks to two of her favorite indie artists, re6ce and Max Fry.

re6ce is a Liverpool-based musician. From a small home studio, they create trippy pop that meshes chillwave with Stone Roses-style psychedelia. Their latest single “SCREAMING ALONE” follows the EP grey europe from earlier this year.

Max Fry is a songwriter and producer who calls his mix of dark post punk and synth pop “Floridacore.” His rise in popularity was ignited by the viral single “zombie,” released in 2023. Like re6ce, Fry is adept at making music that sounds futuristic and vintage at the same time.
