ABOUT

Hey I’m looking to join my first band/work on collabs as a vocalist to create alternative electronic music. I would love to create songs with big personalities, write some clever and crazy lyrics, and experiment with genres. I’m interested in anything high-energy, whether that’s alt, metal, or an electronic project (I love DnB), but I always like to add a dark sexy edge with a bit of aggression. Would love to make songs in the trap metal / metalstep sort of genre if you have experience there. Also keen to make more sensual dark music.

My voice leans towards the melancholic but I’m a very energetic singer and performer if the song calls for it. I can also do a gravely ‘man’ rap voice as well as my normal voice (can hear a mild version in my jamesbond song), and I am learning to scream.

I’ve written a few acoustic guitar songs and self-produced some trip-hop kinda stuff, but I want to collaborate so I can move away from this to more intense songs that I don’t have the producing skills to make by myself yet.

I can also play the guitar but only strum chords not fingerpick.
