What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music used to be so stimulating that I could just sit there and watch https://youtu.be/D_QhIVYlcmE?si=ahP95v7oX69dwtQ- playing out close-eyed. These days though, I'm not so sure. The magic has gone.

What is your music dream?

I just wanna make one unmistakably brilliant masterpiece that will survive me until the end of time.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Legalize murder.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

My Name is Mud or Doctor Worm or Amish Paradise.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

They're all listed in the influences section.

What inspires you to make music?

Boredom.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

No message. My music is anti-message.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

i dunno.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

The commercialization of art, including music, and the dream of becoming a paid artist, is literally killing creative expression. In the next decade or so, all music consumed will be the product of AI. There you go, fuckers. Hope it was worth it.

What do you think of Drooble?

i dunno.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

That I suck and nobody likes my music.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

My local scene? Bro, I live in nowheresville, IA. My "local scene" is a few 70 year old dutch christians playing beatles covers at brunch.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Money. Lots of stinkin fuckin money. And big ass titties. and a huge fuckin dick. Vacant eyes and medically bee-stung lips and huge ass and a fuckin gaping pussy and asshole, all dripping with slime. And be black. And be gay. And be a complete fucking sex pest who drinks blood and fuckin murders kids and gives sacrificial offerings to the beast.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.
