I really enjoyed her "Product" album. The chipmunk paced frenetic energy of it was something I have not heard since. I am saddened the world lost her.

SOPHIE was such a unique and forward looking voice, someone who straddled and joined seeming opposites effortlessly, and a well-deserved figurehead of a burgeoning scene.

A talent for high fidelity sound design that could be evocative of physical objects to the point of approaching body horror, but with an ear for melody and an understanding of pop music forms that would instantly sell the listener on a chorus that would sound impossibly saccharine in any other context.

Someone who worked with Madonna and Kanye West, and whose music was licensed for a McDonald's commercial, yet had a clarity of artistic vision that was underground to the end.

SOPHIE will be missed.

This is a tragedy. Hyperpop is an amazing genre and SOPHIE will be missed. Ever since I heard Hard and Lemonade I knew that there was something special going on.

Damn, sad to hear. SOPHIE was a definite visionary pushing the boundaries of electronic music. A shocking loss.

The Wendy Carlos meets Prince of our generation. Goodbye SOPHIE.

Interesting thought. I was just listening to some Wendy Carlos. Not sure that the rest of the audience actually understands the reference.

Dude I was writing some fiction, and just had on Ponyboy :(((

This will hit the PC Music scene hard. SOPHIE was one the main artists that helped put PC Music on the map. RIP

An incredible talent that was only getting started.

I watched most of the video attached to the article. It feels to me like a rehash of Tangerine Dream and Kitaro.

Your comment is getting downvoted because it comes across as dismissive of her as an artist. Immediately after someone dies, even someone you don't know, it's best to either be kind or be quiet.

It’s also like totally not true!

(It's too late to edit my comment above. But if I could, I'd use their preferred pronoun rather than the gendered one I mistakenly used.)

If you are in Christian America?

Godless Europe and proud of it.

Let’s see what good you’re going to say about Trump when he dies.

Feel free to downvote it. I expressed my honest, unbiased opinion. Until the OP, I had never heard of SOPHIE, so attempted to listen with an unbiased mindset.

Listen to her album or her and Charlie xcx’s vroom vroom lp to get a better sense of Sophie’s range... she was an incredible and versatile musician

Thank you - I will listen to the album
