Spanish Darkwave Sensation icepop Breaks Out with Debut Album, Garnering 10,000 Streams in Two Weeks

At just 16 years old, rising Spanish artist icepop (born Dávid Valentino Dior) is making waves in the underground music scene. Following his explosive debut in 2024, icepop has built a dedicated following, thanks to his genre-blending sound that fuses darkwave, post-punk, and electropop with an emotional and introspective edge. Now, his highly anticipated full-length album—released in November 2024—has already surpassed 10,000 streams within its first two weeks, cementing his status as a major new force in alternative music.

From his roots in Marbella, Spain, icepop has crafted a unique sonic identity, drawing inspiration from brooding synths, atmospheric guitar work, and deeply personal lyricism. His music resonates with fans of artists like Boy Harsher, The Cure, and Crystal Castles, offering a fresh yet nostalgic take on dark electronic music.

Since stepping onto the scene in early 2024, icepop has captivated audiences with his DIY approach to music production. Producing, writing, and composing his own work, he has carved out a niche that speaks to a generation craving raw, authentic expression. His latest album showcases his evolution as an artist—melding melancholic melodies with pulsating beats and haunting vocals.

“I wanted this album to feel like a journey through memory and emotion,” says icepop. “There’s a certain darkness in the music, but it’s also cathartic. I think a lot of people will relate to that.”

With no major label backing, icepop has relied on word-of-mouth buzz and an organic online following, proving that independent artists can make a major impact in today’s music industry. His music has quickly gained traction on streaming platforms, with listeners from across Europe and beyond discovering his distinct sound.

As 2025 unfolds, fans can expect more new music, live performances, and collaborations from this young talent. With a debut album that has already surpassed expectations, icepop is poised for an even bigger breakout in the months to come.
