Perfection isn’t the point. Expression is.

Learnt a lot from doing a show like InsHAEN.
F**ked around & found out.
I can’t wait to fu***ng do it all over again.

“Bro aren’t you a progressive house DJ?”
- I’m an artist. It’s all music. I can make & play what I want within music.

“Bro I think you’re making a little bit of a big deal about this whole neurodivergent / ADHD thing.”
- Getting diagnosed has helped me understand myself, my friends, my music & my entire history as a human being so much better. I see myself, my music & everyone else in a whole new light. Through this process I’ve also started being able to ACTUALLY HELP other people understand themselves better. So no, I’d say I’m not making enough of a deal about this. I SHOULD MAKE IT A MUCH MUCH BIGGER DEAL.

“Bro you can’t just do anything you like. The algorithm will influence your content (when/what you post) & people’s opinions will influence your career.”
- True. Facts. But remember this. If your goal is to be an artist reaching the world with your craft, then be prepared to take on the world’s opinions in the process too. The number of people will CONSISTENTLY EXPONENTIALLY increase the more you live life as an artist, so if your goal is to reach millions then stop living your art according to the whims of the few right now.

“Bro you should be detached, it’s business. Don’t take things personally & don’t react.”
- Don’t react, yes agreed. Be detached, also agreed (to a certain extent). Unfortunately though, ADHD means I’m genetically pre-disposed to taking things “personally”. Also if you’re fu***ng with a brand/identity (aka cadmus aka dyvir5e aka zoane aka haen aka me) I’ve constantly thought about & worked on since 2013/14, then it’d be a bit ridiculous to expect me to “not take it personally” & understand that “it’s business / things like this happen all the time / the market & industry works this way.”

But ofcourse, This Is The Way.

It’s a freaking miracle that all you’re getting as a reaction is a cartoon reel, one DnB tune & a caption you’ll read & forget about by tomorrow.
It’s also freaking ridi
