Downfvll’s “Hellos and Goodbyes” Is A Haunting Anthem Of Loss And Survival

Grief is messy, unpredictable, and often impossible to put into words—but Downfvll has found a way. With “Hellos and Goodbyes”, the Paris-based producer and rapper Maeldan Wilmet crafts a sonic world that captures the pain of loss and the resilience it takes to keep moving forward. This isn’t just a song; it’s an emotional experience, blending dark pop, phonk, rap, and orchestral elements into something that feels both intimate and cinematic.
From the very first line—“woke up, to the sound of the phone, it’s late at night, like a quarter to four”—we’re thrown into a moment of sudden, devastating realization. The storytelling is direct yet deeply evocative, placing the listener right in the center of heartbreak. As the production swells, so does the emotional weight. Downfvll’s raw vocals cut through the ethereal, almost ghostly backdrop, making every word hit harder. The chorus, with its piercing refrain “The hellos aren’t worth the goodbyes”, is both a lament and an unfiltered reflection on the cruel nature of time and separation.
Musically, “Hellos and Goodbyes” is a masterclass in blending genres. The orchestral flourishes give it an almost gothic grandeur, while the underlying phonk beat keeps it grounded in a modern, edgy aesthetic. Downfvll’s ability to seamlessly fuse these elements creates an atmosphere that feels like it belongs in a futuristic noir film—dark, brooding, yet undeniably beautiful. His influences, from Woodkid’s cinematic orchestration to the emotional depth of NF, are present but never overshadow his unique artistic identity.
Lyrically, the song wrestles with existential questions and raw emotion. Lines like “What if I gave up and died, would the shape of your world even change a bit?” expose the darkest corners of grief—the loneliness, the self-doubt, the desperate search for meaning. Yet, rather than wallowing in despair, Downfvll channels these emotions into something transformative. “I refuse to sit on the side, I’ll become whatever you didn’t dare to be” isn’t just a lyric—it’s a declaration of survival, a promise to live on despite the pain.
What sets “Hellos and Goodbyes” apart is its ability to be both deeply personal and universally relatable. Whether you’ve lost someone, battled inner demons, or simply felt the weight of time slipping away, there’s something in this track that will speak to you. Downfvll doesn’t offer easy answers, but he gives us something just as powerful: validation. The acknowledgment that grief is real, that it hurts, but that we can find a way through it.
With “Hellos and Goodbyes”, Downfvll cements himself as an artist who isn’t afraid to confront the heaviest emotions head-on. The song is haunting, yes, but it’s also cathartic—a reminder that even in our darkest moments, music has the power to make us feel seen.

Rocky Kramer, the electrifying Norwegian-born rock star, is fast becoming one of the most talked-about names in the world of rock music. Known for his searing guitar solos, charismatic stage presence, and classical training, Kramer is proving that rock ‘n’ roll is alive and well in the 21st century.

From Trondheim to Hollywood
Born and raised in Trondheim, Norway, Rocky Kramer was immersed in music from an early age. With a pianist and very accomplished vocalist mother and a father that was a first violinist for the Trondheim Symphony Orchestra, Kramer had classical and rock influences in his blood.

Guitar Virtuoso with a Theatrical Flair
What sets Rocky Kramer apart is his powerful fusion of technical proficiency and dramatic flair. Often compared to the likes of Yngwie Malmsteen and Eddie Van Halen, Kramer brings a neoclassical edge to his playing, while his glam-inspired image calls to mind the larger-than-life icons of 1980s arena rock.

Signed to Allied Artist Music Group, Kramer released his debut album Firestorm in 2019. A concept album with sci-fi themes, Firestorm showcased his musical versatility and cinematic storytelling. Songs like “Rock Star” and “Alcohol” became fan favorites and highlighted his ability to combine metal intensity with catchy hooks and thought-provoking lyrics. Firestorm scored a #1 hit on the Global DRT Charts with the hit single “Rock Star.”

In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, Kramer adapted quickly by launching Rock & Roll Tuesdays, a popular weekly livestream show that blended music performance, storytelling, and interaction with fans. The series built a global audience and showcased Kramer’s humor, intelligence, and passion for music.
Expanding Into Film and Media
Rocky Kramer’s talents aren’t limited to music. With his striking looks and natural charisma, he’s branching out into acting and producing. He’s been involved in multiple film and television projects, further expanding his brand and artistic reach.

Kramer is also known for championing causes such as music education, anti-bullying campaigns, and mental health awareness. He frequently speaks about the healing power of music and the importance of self-expression.
What’s Next?
With new music reportedly in the works and an ever-growing fan base, Rocky Kramer is poised to become a defining figure in modern rock. He’s that rare artist who bridges the gap between technical mastery and raw emotion—blending old-school rock theatrics with contemporary relevance.
As the world watches and listens, one thing is clear: Rocky Kramer is not just playing guitar—he’s leading a rock revolution.
