individuals have become managed products. Resist this in your self.
"Late capitalism has penetrated our emotional and psychological lives to such an extent that emotions themselves have become commodified—measured, managed, and sold like any other resource." — Eva Illouz
Many artists think they’ve escaped the industry's grip, yet still fall into the same cycles: clout-chasing, undercutting peers, acting as gatekeepers. Death sees and cuts through all of that. Reminding us that community, not competition, is what lasts. Embrace Life & Death
"The spectacle is capital accumulated until it becomes images." (Thesis 34) Wealth and status don't bring fulfillment. The spectacle replaces authentic experience with manufactured desires, erasing history and culture. (Thesis 192) The industry sells success, not happiness.
[The spectacle is a social relation, mediated by images, not just visual excess from mass media. It's a materialized worldview, an objective reality. In the music industry, artists become products, judged by marketability, social media, and commercial viability their art.]
In 2016 I created this song in reaction to the life I built exploding before me; I thought the world was over. Now, the latest explosion is no different. It only ends when you give up. For me, it never ends. Keep moving forward #witchhouse#noscrubs#TLC

This EP is a collection of songs I made when I felt meaningless to someone who meant everything to me. Love can bring a despair like nothing else—but without that risk, there’s no real beauty, keep moving forward #darkelectronicmusic#love#witchhouse https://t.co/pCQll6BFMo
I've made music most of my life and see the same issues persist across every scene, industry, and art form. Drop pursuits of ego—those chasing it want to destroy you, not build with you. This song alludes to some of that for me: https://t.co/rCiEEq1b4E
