Ominous Music Master Rezz On HypnoVizion, Insomnia And More

0

Isabelle Rezazadeh, best known by her mononym Rezz, is globally renowed for her slow and dark production. The producer is commonly seen performing with hypnotic spiral glasses that leave listeners transfixed by her ominous, slow-paced and occasionally bassy sound. The artist proves to have a massive fanbase, having recently sold out two nights at the acclaimed Colorado venue Red Rocks.

In addition, Rezazadeh has produced hit tracks such as “Hypocurrency,” “Puzzle Box” and “Someone Else,” and her distinct sound is best showcased on her fourth LP, Spiral. The producer’s music has also been seen in an Apple Commercial with her banger “Chemical Bond.” Indeed, Rezazadeh proves to be the queen of ominous bass music.

The acclaimed artist recently launched her label dubbed HypnoVizion. Rezazadeh says she was originally uncertain if she wanted to have her own imprint because she was busy touring and creating new music. Once her touring schedule slowed down, though, she was able to focus on producing more music and listening to demos.

“I decided that now would be the best time to start a label because now I have the time to look for new artists,” she says. “I’m excited to be getting sent a bunch of new stuff all the time and checking out demos and helping artists out. I especially love putting out music from artists who are smaller acts. It doesn’t matter to me whether they’re small or big, to be honest with you. What matters is what the music sounds like. [There are] so many good up-and-coming producers that I’m pretty stoked to have a place for them to put stuff out.”

Rezazadeh says that she formerly struggled with insomnia, to the point where it was debilitating and she was performing at shows going on over 50 hours of no sleep. Insomnia also triggered her situational anxiety, which she says she dealt with throughout her twenties when she began touring. She adds that her anxiety can also be draining as she won’t eat or sleep, causing her health to deteriorate.

“[Insomnia] was, without question, the worst experience I’ve ever had in my life because it wasn’t just like a one-week thing,” she says. “This happened for months. I was staying up until seven in the morning almost every single day and then only sleeping three hours. It was really insane I could not sleep any longer and I couldn’t get to sleep whenever I wanted to…. Eventually, the thing that helped me really cope with that was taking things literally one step at a time…like going for a walk. I haven’t been doing this recently as I haven’t been anxious at all.”

The hypnotic music producer adds that it was a slow healing process, taking months for her to begin to heal from her anxiety and insomnia as she would get anxious around nighttime about the possibility of getting sleep.

“Every time I’d lay in bed, which would be considered a time that anyone else would feel relaxed, I would actually feel significantly on edge and my heart would race and everything,” she says. “So it took a while to unlearn those thought loops that would make that continue and progress worse. It was a process but it made me realize that no matter how low you feel on whatever you’re experiencing, taking little steps every single day really does make a massive difference at the end of the day.”

The artist is one of the few women within the heavily male-dominated bass music scene, with her even frequently being the only woman headlining at festivals. She believes this problem can be helped by other female artists featuring other women on their tour lineups.

“[Pay] attention to all of the new women that are making music and coming up on a daily basis,” the bass music heavyweight says. “[Keep] an eye out, [add] them to lineups—[add] them to whatever you can possibly do. I think, hopefully, women will be inspired by other women to do the same and ignore any bad things along the way, like bad commentary, et cetera. Ignore it, move forward and master your craft.”

As a member of the LGBTQI+ community, she offers similar advice.

“I would say being more conscious,” Rezazadeh says. “Being more conscious in regards to choosing more people like that onto the lineup. It’s including them more frequently, making it more normalized and regular.”

Rezazadeh has been extremely private about her personal life since she broke into the music industry in 2015, and she has since become more confident in who she is. For example, Rezazadeh has become more comfortable with wearing her hair naturally instead of frequently straightening it.

“I’m feeling a lot more confident maybe than ever now. I would always straighten my hair and it would be raining outside. I would avoid the raindrops,” the bass music artist says. “But now, it’s like nothing matters: it could rain, it could be humid outside. It doesn’t affect my hair. However, of course, I do straighten my hair every time [I perform] because it’s the image that I’ve built with the hat side pieces straightened. It’s part of the image now. So I do still do it for the shows, but it’s nice in my personal life that I don’t have to do it anymore. It saves a lot of time and I feel better about myself.”
