This is a page dedicated to the artists that I listen to and take inspiration from for my music.

Infected Mushroom

I have to start this off with the group that has been my biggest influence in music creation since the beginning, Infected Mushroom. Back in middle school I used to really only listen to a few random songs, and some video game soundtracks, I wasn't really that into music in general. That was until early 2018, where I found the Monstercat YouTube upload of the song Spitfire. This song blew me away, I had never heard anything like it before. Very soon after, the algorithm started throwing at me old uploads of a few of their songs, specifically the songs Saeed, the Black Shawarma title track, and Bass Nipple. I spent the summer of 2018 going through their discography, eventually listening to their albums Return to the Sauce, Friends on Mushrooms, Vicious Delicious, Army of Mushrooms, and Classical Mushroom. They had very quickly become my favorite music act and continue to be to this day, though they have tough competition now. By the time 2019 rolled around I had already begun my exploration into Synthwave and that scene, but in the end I always came back to IM. I even created an unofficial discord server that still is alive to this day (though I am no longer the owner). As time went on I ended up going through their entire discography (even the more rare and obscure tracks), and quite a few tracks stood out to me specifically. Those tracks include Nutmeg, Dancing with Kadafi, Bust a Move, Saeed, Heavyweight, Send me an Angel, and Walking On The Moon. These are probably the tracks I have been the most influenced by. I even use their I Wish and Manipulator plugins through out Fallen World and Twilight Sky. However, due to events in the ladder half of 2023 and IM being an Israeli act, I don't really support them monetarily. Despite this, they are still influential to my music and will most likely be for a long time.

Vylet Pony

I will admit, I was one of those people that didn’t think a My Little Pony fan artist could make something that I thought was worthwhile, good god was I wrong. I first heard of Vylet Pony when one of my friends got really into her album Fish Whisperer, as it had just come out. I didn’t even give the album a listen, I just dismissed it because it was pony music and moved on. Over a year later, another one of my friends gets really into her music, and at this moment I give her a quick listen. I checked out Fish Whisperer and listened to a bit of Carousel, I didn’t like what I heard. I tried again to get into her music with Girls Who Are Wizards, which I did like more due to it being a 2010’s inspired brostep album, but it still didn’t grip me. However, around April of 2025, it finally clicked for me. I listened to all of Fish Whisperer, Cutiemarks, and Carousel and loved all of them, especially Fish Whisperer. I started going through her discography (mainly her post 2020 stuff) and very quickly got obsessed. Though, I will say, it fully hit me how amazing of an artist Vylet was when I finally listened to the album that everyone now knows her for, Monarch of Monsters. To put it lightly, after the trauma I had from going through 2024, Monarch of Monsters hit me like a fucking brick. Vylet is able to effortlessly weave through so many different genres and styles, while telling such beautiful stories with amazing lyrics and extra media that make each album feel like a collage of human experiences. I had already been exploring the idea of doing more with my music, like adding characters and stories, but Vylet showed me that it was not only possible, but that it was fucking amazing. Monarch of Monsters is now my favorite album of all time, and I don’t see that changing soon. Also yes, I do need to watch all of My Little Pony Gen 4.
