Pastel Ghost

Others, such as professional music critics, music industry workers, and concert promoters, have variously described her music as "lac[ing] elements of dream pop, post-punk and electronica with her ethereal vocals melting over chilly synths and thumping dance beats," "whispery, gauzy, shimmering and intimate dance sound," "witch rave", "strikingly hypnotic", and "electronic beats on pillowy clouds of synths, occasionally fused with 8-bit-video-game-influenced sounds" with "reverb-soaked vocals, lending the whole affair an appropriately ghostly vibe." She first self-released two EPs, Dark Beach EP and Shadows EP. She then signed to 80s Ladies Records for her debut full-length album, Abyss, which was released on March 10, 2015. Her second studio album, Ethereality, was released on October 5, 2018, via Cleopatra Records. She supported Mr.Kitty on the subsequent tour, in 2019.

Moon grew up in what she has described as a musical family, with a sister who played both classical piano and bass and a brother who also played the piano. Moon herself grew up playing guitar and piano. In high school and college, she played with multiple bands, though she rarely took center stage and had no particular aspirations of being a front woman. She is of Korean descent.
