In the fifty-eighth episode of the Hidden Driveway Show, I had the honor of interviewing rachyl, a rapper and producer from Missouri! She's the founder of her collective lumina, loves fighting games, and is a member of Sutetchi alongside other artists like Dani Kiyoko, mayxx, and staywidow, all of whom I've interviewed before. I hope you enjoy!RACHYL'S SOCIALShttps://x.com/ivvlosthttps://www.instagram.com/ivvlost/https://soundcloud.com/stuckinboxxesHIDDEN DRIVEWAY SOCIALShttps://twitter.com/hiddendriveway_https://www.instagram.com/hiddendriveway_/Listen to Hidden Driveway on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3hSJP0juKCmJYHYmHVzS00?si=e4602b80dda54cf1Curated Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/07YUuoKvKv9J97PEyCDPTp?si=f0dbc4ded45a4586Curated SoundCloud Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/aamufr/sets/hidden-drivewayAAMU'S SOCIALShttps://twitter.com/aamufrhttps://www.instagram.com/aamufr/https://soundcloud.com/aamufrSHOUTOUT TO RESTLESS TOO FOR MAKING THE THUMBNAILhttps://x.com/restlessbaghttps://www.instagram.com/restlesslp/https://soundcloud.com/prodrestlessIntroduction - 0:00 Cyberpunk 2077 - 0:21 Zelda and Spider-Man - 1:32 How rachyl got into making music - 3:35 rachyl’s influences - 4:38 Digicore and her production influences - 7:18 Not being a fan of sigilkore - 12:04 How she makes her melodies - 14:52 What draws rachyl to fighting games - 16:29 rachyl’s favorite fighting games - 17:33 Wanting to become more active in the Fighting Game Community - 22:17 Fatal Fury, and other fighting games - 23:19 Her thought process for choosing her cover art - 28:04 Getting her name from Teen Titans - 28:43 Her thoughts on sampling fighting game OSTs in her music - 29:42 Times rachyl has been surprised by something - 30:53 Music that rachyl immediately fell in love with - 40:46 The process for working on arc drives - 49:03 rachyl’s hot takes - 57:11 Intense game of rock paper scissors - 1:08:31 The biggest lessons that rachyl has learned - 1:10:49 Why rachyl started lumina, and how it’s impacted her music - 1:19:10 rachyl’s vision for lumina - 1:24:24 What’s next for rachyl? - 1:27:56 Shoutouts - 1:32:05 Outro - 1:32:37 sorry if the audio skips a lil bit in this one i think there was something going on with rachyls mic but i had so much fun doing this one !!! rachyls such a warm and welcoming person and it felt super easy to talk to her even though we'd never met before :]#rachyl #hidden #driveway #show #underground #music #interview #aamu #sutetchi #lumina #dani #kiyoko #lucy #bedroque #ivvys #staywidow #mayxx #aurainairy #universe #final #arc #drives
