Hype Williams (band)

Hype Williams is a musical group best known for consisting of UK-born artist Dean Blunt and Russian-born artist Inga Copeland between 2007 and 2012. Supposedly founded in 2005 as a "relay" project passed between artists every five years, the group's lineup has remained obscure, and a variety of other names have also been invoked as members. The group has remained elusive, giving few interviews and leaving the media in doubt as to the exact nature of the project. A shadowy representative named Denna Frances Glass has alternately been posited as either the manager of the project or a fake identity created by Blunt and Copeland.

The group's work encompasses widely experimental music releases and videos, including the defunct YouTube channel pollyjacobsen, which featured a bizarrely cryptic range of content. Their work has drawn irreverently on popular culture and incorporated opaque imagery and contexts, as well as an idiosyncratic online presence, with them occasionally uploading new songs before promptly deleting them with listeners often keeping archives.

In 2016, Glass announced that Blunt and Copeland were no longer part of the project, which would be continuing with other members.
