A number of artists associated with hyperpop, a movement in electronic music that emerged in the 2010s, aggressively manipulate their recorded voice. The singer Dorian Electra, for example, shifts the pitch of their vocals to be much deeper than that of Electra's natural range. And even the hyperpop artists who don't rely on pitch-shifting, such as Rina Sawayama, often distort their vocals using digital tools.
