2019 has been an action-packed year in the music industry as well. “I realized a couple of years ago that now that we’re in this streaming business, where artists can just move at will. Every day is filled with excitement, music, creativity and people wanting to get our attention,” Lowe said.

He then went on to explain how we are living in “anxious times,” noting that Billie Eilish’s debut album is an “honest reflection of the times we’re in.”

“I think it’s been really deep,” the DJ said. “If you look at the album of the year, and I agree with you guys that it’s Billie Eilish – it’s a very deep album. The songs are beautifully-crafted, honest and transparent, but there’s also a lot of ideas going on and some interesting subject matter. It’s beautiful and full of love but also heartbreaking, desolate and anxious. It’s an honest reflection of the times we’re in.”

From what we have heard of Billie so far, she uses her gorgeous voice and talent to get real about pain and suffering. When it comes to opening up about struggles with mental health, she holds nothing back. Perhaps this is why fans often comment on her videos that they “feel her pain” and are “crying along with her”.

In an interview with Apple Music’s Beats, Eilish said of her debut record: “The album is basically what happens when you fall asleep. For me, in every song in the album there’s sleep paralysis. There’s night terrors, nightmares, lucid dreams.”

She continued: “I’ve always had really, really bad night terrors. I’ve had sleep paralysis five times. All my dreams are lucid so I control them. I know that I’m dreaming what I’m dreaming, so I don’t even know. Sometimes I’ll have dreams where the thing that was in my dream will happen the next day. It’s so weird. Its’ so weird.”
