As you can probably tell, I am a Non-binary trans-femme ambient noise musician, and artist. As long as I can remember, art has been my passion. I had my introduction to music at a fairly young age and always had a deep connection to how songs made me feel. I started playing music when I was 12 when I joined band and chose trumpet. At the time I was obsessed with Emo culture, so naturally I wanted to play guitar. I started guitar the year after that. Since then I have dabbled with drums, piano, and bass. I played bass for a small band called Planet Sized Planet from 2023-2024, when we decided to go onto different projects. The beginning of 2023, I wrote and recorded a shoegaze style song and released it, but I did not like the process very much. I got a synth and began making sounds in 2022, but only recently (2025) started to understand what I am doing with it. Also this year I invested in a drum machine, as I have gotten more into electronic music and live harsh techno and lofi breakcore.
Back to the art side of things, I started discovering Surrealist, Dada (or Dadaism), and Expressionism in a high school art class around 2019. These are my biggest influences for what I now create. In my paintings I use acrylic paint, ink of all sorts, trash, and thread for when I have to sew up what I destroy. I also like to patch clothes and see how I can make my clothes more custom to match me. Makeup is an important part of who I am, even if I do not do it too often.
Some more random knowledge about me, I love the feel of old media (VHS, Casettes, DVDs, CDs, and old consoles) Horror is my favorite genre, I love to be scared. That being said Silent Hill 2 (PS2) is my all time favorite game. I grew up on the PS2 esp Need For Speed Most Wanted. That game threw me into my love of Nu-Metal, Breakcore, and driving fast in cool cars.
If I think of anything else to share about myself I will add it here, but for now, enjoy the noise.
