“Growing up, I listened to a range of music. Even now, my music taste is all over the place. I love my pop music, you know? While on the other hand I eat, sleep, and bleed my rock. But then again, indie/alternative has my heart. Like I said, it’s truly a whole range of music. God, sometimes there’ll even be just straight piano music cranked through my speakers. It definitely inspired my own sound.” In 2021, angxl made his first debut album, “from now until forever”, and the results came back better than he had anticipated. “Oh my god when I first released it, I would check the streams daily, almost religiously. I would see that I got a couple hundred and I swear my heart would stop. Now that I’ve got my two albums, yes a third is coming, and my two singles out, I look at the streams and I am astonished. How I’ve hit over 250K streams is beyond me, but I’m forever grateful.” angxl Top Ten Picks: Nirvana, Beach House, Ariana Grande, Sleep Token, Deftones, Pink Floyd, Slowdive, The Hollies, SZA, Cigarettes After Sex angxl Top Five Songs: Myth (Beach House), Touch (Cigarettes After Sex), Come As You Are (Nirvana), Hey You (Pink Floyd), Deep Dive (Neaux)
