Rare DM

Rare DM is a Brooklyn-based singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist known for blending dark-grounded electronica with strong pop sensibilities. The project, led by Erin Hoagg, has evolved from earlier beginnings to incorporate a keen sense of aesthetics, fashion, and imagery. Rare DM's music often explores themes of intimacy, luxury, and escapism, as seen in releases like *Vanta Black*, *send nudes*, and *Rolex*. Live performances are energetic and expressive, featuring a hardware-based setup that includes drum machines and synthesizers.

Rare DM's sound is influenced by genres such as EBM, minimal techno, electroclash, post-punk, and bloghouse, creating a unique blend of darkwave and synthpop. The artist has toured extensively across North America, Europe, and Mexico, sharing stages with notable acts like Molchat Doma and Drab Majesty. With a focus on vintage analogue equipment, Rare DM crafts intimate and alluring tunes that captivate audiences worldwide.
