Loell Bergen also known as Alex Savage or OMFG is a British-Canadian music producer and online streamer. His most known songs are "Hello" which charted in Belgium in number 84 and "I Love You".[2][3] He currently has over 1 million subscribers. He uses Glitch-hop music as his genre combined with EDM and his music has become known in its fanbase for his simple and repetitive music, and his mascot Toasty, who was featured in artwork and single releases for the songs. It was initially believed Kylee Boettcher was the producer of the music under the name until Loell informed the public it was a social experiment.
Career[edit]
Before making music as OMFG, he would make music under the alias of ElectroPhant, sometimes referred to as PhantBass. One of the songs released under this alias was a dubstep track titled "Chocolate Chip Pancakes", released sometime during or before August of 2013.[4] The melody from this track would later be reused in the OMFG song "Pancakes", definitively linking the two aliases as being operated by the same individual.
In 2014, he released "Hello" which was immediately known and reposted by MrSuicideSheep where the song became more known on the internet and YouTube.
In 2015, he released "Yeah", "I Love You", and "Ok" as singles.[5][6] He briefly convinced the public he was a woman named Kylee Boettcher until it was revealed he was a man named Loell Bergen. In a Q&A video, he hired her in response to a lack of female electronic dance music producers.[7]
In 2016, he released "Jelly" and "Pancakes".[8][9]
He has a TikTok account under the name "talkboxguy" which was active until February 7, 2021.
