BX Blog

Welcome to my new home! I wanted more of a voice to share whatever I'm working on with whoever is interested. You can call it a blog, but it's more of a central hub to connect my various platforms and help me present my projects with more depth and explanation. Click here for more ramblings!

"You need to find your own sound!" Yeah thanks captain obvious, we know. How do we find our own sound? How do we create music that stands out from everybody else's? I've got a few tips that might help.

Does music art really matter? Single art, album art, EP art, social media content, even artist branding like logos -...

I've learned A LOT from books. There's a reason so many of the people I look up to recommend reading - it's the best way to take in new information without distraction, and it's a good way to unwind.

Social media is perhaps the greatest promotional tool of the modern day, giving the power back to the independent artist...

Overcoming fear and anxiety caused by music, performance, social media, and everyday events can improve our quality of life and let us reach bigger goals and achieve our dreams.

It's easy to fall into the trap of over-processing everything. You can feel like you have to, but getting too technical can stifle your productivity.

I fell into the trap. And not the bass variety haha. At some point in the last while I became way too consumed with looking ahead and aiming for bigger and bigger things. Which generally helps you move forward, but doesn't do much for your happiness and gratitude. You forget to be thankful for the goals you reach along the way.

In my last post I gave you 3 Youtube channels to follow, and suggested you fill in your 'dead time'...

I'm low key proud of how my remix collection looks these days lol :) I'm a graphic designer by day so I know the importance of branding, but I'm also a compulsive creator who gets get carried away with new ideas every day so I find it hard to stick to one theme. Good branding is actually restrictive in a way, which almost feels counterintuitive because as an artist you don't want to box yourself in. I've always broken my own rules when it comes to my own branding, but I think I've finally settled on something I can live with now and its feeling pretty cohesive.
