Artist Spotlight: Pop Pariah

Today we have Pop Pariah from Hartford, CT!

The track "wishing i was someone else" is introduced with a warm, minimal-crunch, lo-fi guitar and a heavy croon buried in reverb.

The melodies? Yup! Catchy!

Reminiscent of Xiu Xiu, the song elicits a haunting, yet still upbeat vibe. The keys that sneak in midway hover throughout the rest of the song until they're the only instrument left standing. All of this is driven home by a distant drum that pounds the sentiment into the ground.

Go ahead and check out Pop Pariah's song, HERE!

Until next time!

Music As Your Sigil

Music lies within everyone. Whatever comes out, becomes our sonic fingerprint and, over time, becomes a moldable personification of our inner-voice. It's how we communicate our story where words simply fall short. Each piece of music written becomes a stepping stone on our journey to self-discovery. Each time we are crafting the delivery and structure in such a way the last piece was lacking or could have been improved upon. There's no finish line, no perfect song (although sometimes the right one will strike gold) rather, it's just a continuous adventure that speaks to that moment of time in our lives. During your journey, you come across other characters also building their own story who help influence your writing process. These connections are the building blocks that create a community. A community formed around these types of connections are the kind we should strive to be around in all aspects of our lives. They facilitate the type of interactions that are ...

Musician Reiterated

Writing music by yourself is very important for discovering your voice. However, it's not a panacea!                                             "I am the master of all things music regarding only myself"                                          This is why music has such a social dynamic. We are speaking to others rhythmically, melodically, to elicit an emotional response from each other. This response then feeds back into our process and, thus, the cycle continues as we develop our sound. To stay within yourself musically limits your ability to flush out your true potential as you are only creating one linear iteration of yourself. The introduction of others expands your own identity by pinging your ideas against external sources and returning a hybrid mix. The ...
