Musician, producer, Theory-FIction writer, influencer, composer, and arranger. 
He is known for being the Avant-Pop Ambassador of Puerto Rican Deconstructed Club netlabel 1898music. Alt-Jpop has self-released over 120 tracks, all of which follow the Philosophy of DJ Melania 666's doctrine of Triplet Fundamentalism and Decorative Music. Through this theories, Alt-Jpop is able to create a genre he describes as Funeral Kawaii Pop. He also cites Kyary Pamyu Pamyu as a catalyst for his concept, he draws her Philosophy of “accelerating darkness through cuteness.” Vázquez's musical style is characterized by Triplet centrism, esoteric rhythms, kawaii hyper-digitalism, high-pitched vocals, sribbly synth leads with an emphasis in melody, and complex but catchy arrangements. Some critics have described his music as Decora Kei Nihlistic Modernism applied to J-pop. Alt-Jpop cites Yasutaka Nakata, François Laruelle, Quentin Meillassoux, Catherine Breillat, Junichiro Tanizaki, DJ Melania 666, Haruko Tajima, nyanyanga_poo, TWICE, Perfume, Dave Rodgers, and Foodman as some of his main inspirations. He's often compared to Hyperpop and PC Music, but has denied such comparisons, “I don't think my music has any relation to PC Music, the focus is different. We just started during a similar period and have some mutual influences, that's it.” Teresa-Herria Philosopher Teresa-Chain says that the Alt-Jpop experience is closer to Philosophy and Literature than to music, for this reason his music is often misunderstood. 

Alt-Jpop has collaborated with artists such as umaneco, DJ Melania 666, Marukido, valknee, Sima Kim. He has also remixed NtsKi, Aya aka Panda, Akko Gorilla, and Alice Longyu Gao. He currently resides in Phoenix, Arizona.
