19-year-old AViT’s ‘twitterloser’ is a heartbreak song which is reminiscent of early 2010’s pop. After wondering why AViT’s music reminded me a lot of 2010 pop, in particular ‘Owl City’, I found AViT says he is heavily inspired by the 2000’s music he grew up listening to.
‘twitterloser’ opens with a chime-like, video game soundtrack reminiscent, synths and a constantly pitch changing vocal track. These factors allow you to become fully enthralled by AViT’s storytelling. The song at 2 minutes and twenty one seconds is how I imagine floating through space would be. The chime-like synth sounding like stars falling, partnered with the echoey vocals filling a void, allows you to immerse yourself in AViT’s world.
The lyrics are full of bittersweet memorable lines such as “I hate you, I despise you // You’re just a memory to me” these lyrics accompanied by the high-pitched distorted vocals encapsulate the feeling of trying to escape the memory of someone.
The opening of the second verse however shows AViT’s ability to write vulnerable, honest and immersive lyrics while still being stylized. “Yeah I spent all my nights // Stayed up, writing these fucking lines // Wasting my energy and time // (God damn, I really need a life)”. Alongside the lyrics, that hit too close to home, AViT uses a juxtaposing light and bright synth reflecting the conflict of emotions he describes throughout the song within the music itself. Needless to say this may have been my first encounter with AViT but it won’t be the last.
