Mood Killer

Opening portals to higher realms has long been the meandering path of experimental pop artist Mood Killer (they/them) culminating last year in their debut album, ABRACADABRA.  Bursting onto the effervescent LA scene in 2019 with pioneering EP, Liquify, Mood, aka Michael Zarowny, quickly drew in a circle of collaborators and fans across the pop and alt spectrum, crafting a pioneering and unique blend of theatrical electronic pop and mystical panache.

Their EP Solidify saw collaborations with Slipknot’s SID, The Garden’s Enjoy, and Pussy Riot amongst others whilst Mood has performed with alt-pop greats Charli XCX, Caroline Polachek, and Dorian Electra. With their ever-expanding musical journey taking inspiration from deep academic fixations on “sociology and the way our identities and realities are socially constructed”, the acclaimed EP, widely supported by Paper Magazine, Clash, and more, opened up a fantastical sci-fi deep dive in an electronic music scene that so rarely touches upon the conundrum of the human experience.

2021 brought forth Mood’s divisive yet acclaimed official remix of "Sine From Above" feat. Elton John on Lady Gaga’s Dawn of Chromatica album. The song was one of the most talked about tracks and described by world renowned music critic Anthony Fantanto as, “one of the most insane things I think I’ve ever heard.” The same year saw the Happy Birthday single, music video, and bizarre 100-track album of remixes customized with popular names.

2024 saw the release of Mood’s acclaimed debut album, ABRACADABRA, a kaleidoscopic dreamscape of buzzy electronic bass, jazzy horns, hyperpop, and Hollywood foley studio sound effects. Mood effortlessly pulls you from an underground hyperpop club to a divine comedy that sits somewhere between Twin Peaks, Fantasia, and Vaudeville Magic Show - the most unexpected colliding of worlds of a generation. Hitting multi-million streams and releasing self-directed music videos created with renowned production team “Wendyvision,” Mood celebrated a breakthrough year of transmutating the hyperpop space into a realm of mutli-dimensional possibility and is set to continue their journey through 2025 with US Touring, a magical variety show and the release of more musical mastery.

The fool’s journey continues in 2025 with Mood providing direct support for Sasami on their US Tour and the release of new music that sends the magic act careening into dance pop territories.
