i’ll be honest - the majority of 2025 was kind of booty cheeks for me.
over the summer, i suffered some life-altering hearing loss at a music festival that affects me to this day (ear plugs & all). i don’t know if i’ll ever hear music the same. i don’t know if i’ll ever hear bass the same.
for a while, i couldn’t go to shows, let alone play any. even the simple joy of listening to your favorite song in the car became depressing (as much as i hate to admit it, this is still kind of true). i thought my dreams of being an artist were over - before they really even began.
but i guess it’s always darkest before the dawn, right? i started making Fish Paste for
@qwerkrecords in the midst of my healing, at the lowest possible volume on my laptop speakers. it took time (& a few pairs of healthy ears in the process) to finish, but we did it!
now, my first song is out! i couldn’t be more grateful to the Qwerk team &
@rodneydinkles for playing such a huge role in my confidence as a producer despite the challenges.
2025 showed me that no matter what happens, i will always get up stronger than the last - & i’ll do it with a big phat smile on my face.
i learned that it’s okay to ask for help, & the Universe would never give me something i couldn’t handle.
thank you for all the love on Fish Paste so far, the response has been nothing short of incredible.
i have a good feeling about 2026 🤍
