Wyldest

Wyldest is the dream-pop brainchild of British multi-instrumentalist and producer Zoe Mead, who crafts lush, introspective soundscapes blending ethereal vocals with shimmering guitars and synth textures. Emerging from London’s indie scene, the project gained traction with its 2019 debut album *Dream Chaos*, which channeled themes of self-discovery and nature through a shoegaze-tinged lens. Mead’s DIY ethos shines in their work—she often writes, records, and mixes everything herself, creating a sound that feels both intimate and expansive.

Recent releases like *Feed the Flowers Nightmares* (2022) and standalone singles such as *Tin Foil Girl* and *Rainstorm Utopia* continue to refine Wyldest’s signature blend of moody atmospherics and poetic lyricism, touching on feminism, environmental concerns, and emotional vulnerability. Collaborations with remixers like pecq and Night Works highlight their openness to reimagining their sound, while tracks like *Hard to Say I’m Sorry* showcase Mead’s knack for wrapping raw, personal reflections in gauzy, melodic warmth. Wyldest remains a compelling voice in indie dream-pop, balancing DIY authenticity with ever-evolving sonic ambition.
