About I Hope Hell Isn't Real by Roe Kapara
Inspired by the vivid imagery and surrealist plots of 90’s movies such as Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, Roe Kapara’s debut EP ‘I Hope Hell Isn’t Real’ follows a similar formula. Centered around a cinematic storyline, Roe conceptualized a miserable fictional character who lives in a dystopian world full of nothing but apathy. While everything around him is crumbling he ends up dying, but in a twist of events he’s brought back to life. Post-mortem he gains a new perspective and outlook on life, realizing that there’s more meaning to it than he originally thought.
“In the 90’s there was a level of freedom to push the envelope in that era of filmmaking, and my approach to creating music is similar: ‘What’s some crazy shit we can talk about or do?’ I just want to say crazy shit, but stuff I also really care about. It’s gotta be both.”
