Death by Distraction seamlessly weaves organic instrumentation with electronic production, creating a sound that feels both intimate and dance floor-ready. From the bouncy pop-infused opener "Physical" to the RÜFÜS DU SOL-reminiscent guitar work on "Lost In My Sentiments," Hill demonstrates his ability to craft songs that resonate beyond typical genre constraints.
The album's production palette draws from various corners of electronic music while maintaining a cohesive vision. Tracks like "Distracted" channel the organic house sophistication of Nora En Pure, while "Fire In The Snow" introduces folky elements through acoustic guitar work. The project closes with an extended version of Hill's streaming hit "Is This Real," featuring acclaimed TikTok vocalist CAMERON.
Since first emerging on SoundCloud in 2016, Hill (born Cameron DeFaria) has established himself as a notable figure in LA's club scene. Following his label debut "Ascension" on Ibiza's Haustronaut Recordings earlier this year, Hill signed with FRNDS MGMT, joining a roster that includes Alison Wonderland and Crooked Colours.
Death by Distraction arrives as a polished statement piece from an artist equally comfortable with live instrumentation and electronic production. Through hypnotic arpeggios, metaphoric lyricism, and carefully crafted soundscapes, Hill has created an album that feels at home both in headphones and Ibiza beach clubs.
