Metalheart / Depthcore is so underrated

I've never seen anything like it! I love the way the dark and light colors blend to create a very abstract but immersive piece. What's happening in it doesn't need to make sense, it just looks beautiful, nonetheless. I follow countless artists who produce this kind of work. It looks very calming and reminds me of some music I listen to like Solar Fields (artist of the Mirror's Edge soundtrack) & H.U.V.A. Network (Solar Fields & Aes Dana).
If I had to give this aesthetic a theme song, it would be Distances by H.U.V.A. Network; the album this song comes from under the same name is also just a perfect soundtrack for the aesthetic. Even Microsoft had a metalheart theme pack with wallpapers back in the day by Indivision 07 Grow B.
