Paper Skies & Nytrix - Freefalling

[Project] Wireframe /// Track 3

The importance of blocking out the noise.

I had accepted I hit rock bottom. My streaming numbers were lower than they had been in 6 years and I was sitting in my friend's apartment in LA on my first solo vacation. This trip had no specific purpose other than to see my friends, but I learned real quick why LA has such a hustle mindset. I got an opportunity to receive massive funding to reopen my label, was chatting with big names in the scene and every moment felt like chasing an opportunity. The trip was amazing, but it brought me right back to the mindset I was trying to avoid when I wrote Freefalling.

The skill I learned on this trip was to block out the noise. Everyone has something to say about how you should live your life and push your career, but sometimes the best ideas and exploration of self comes when nobody is around. I used this opportunity to write this track whenever I was alone on this trip and discover the importance of isolation.

Louder Than Noise (Ft. flowanastasia)

[Project] Wireframe /// Track 1

This is where it all started.

In 2019 I realized everything I was doing was pointless.

Today's musicians are placed in a stupidly toxic position. If they aren’t feeding the algorithm, constantly growing and doing 10 jobs at once, all of their hard work is swept away by the endless waves of new music and competition. I remember feeling like I was working harder than anybody, but I treated myself like shit for not hitting the same numbers as other musicians which led to toxic work habits. Maybe if I made MORE music or BETTER sound design I could get the numbers they had? Maybe I need to make more short form content? Maybe I need to change my sound? The doubts just kept rolling in and I was killing myself by doing what I THOUGHT I should be doing.

The truth is, we ask ourselves the wrong questions and create this toxic position for ourselves. I didn’t NEED the numbers to be happy. Yeah I have to make money to live, but it didn’t NEED to be from music for me to finally BE happy. As long as I could sustain myself and MAKE music that would make me pretty happy, right? What the fuck was the point in doing this to myself?

I think it was 2020 when I finally started asking the right questions; “Why am I doing this? What are my true goals? Why does ANY of what I create matter?” These were my answers…

1) What I wanted to do was create ANYTHING that made me feel proud; music, art and all. 
2) My goals were to have a sustainable income and ensure I had time to create and be social. 
3) What I was making hardly mattered in the world and especially to myself.

I didn’t like the answer I gave myself on the last question, so I took a step back from being a musician, and I decided I wanted to become an Artist. I wanted my shit to matter, at bare minimum, to myself. I’ll say in highsight, this is the best choice I ever made and I am happy.

This is the foundation of who I was as a musician and my journey to becoming what I self define as an "Artist". I'm excited to hear what you think about the music, how you interpret it and I want to thank you so much for being with me in this moment.

Wireframe (Intro)

[Project] Wireframe /// Track 5

Every time I hear this record I just think about how lucky I am to have such amazing people around me.

We're now half way through the album. The sense of independence I felt at this point and the freedom from that self inflicted curse of chasing the numbers was beautiful. Despite this, I realized that this story only looked into issues I was facing at the moment, but I wanted to dive deeper and look more into my past.

This started by looking back at every single video I had on my phone since 2014 when I started making music. Honestly one of the best experiences I ever put myself through and I got to revisit so many memories and friends. Each recording you hear here is from my phone and I tried my best to highlight my journey and people who are crucial to my life in this moment. Each field recording and ambience you hear across this entire album is taken from the videos on my phone at different times and locations. Each moment of this album is so important to me.

Interlude

To celebrate the release of my new plugin, "Chroma" developed by my company Xynth Audio & Nasko, we decided to make an official demo track!

Big thanks to Audius for sponsoring an official remix contest for the tune which includes a $500 cash prize and some awesome production tools!

STEMS: https://audius.co/PaperSkies/paper-skies-x-nasko-x-audius-72-hour-beat-battle

Really pushed Chroma to its limits to make some dope sounds and we're happy to share those sound design methods if anybody has questions!

Paper Skies - Fireflies (ft. meseta) | RADIO EDIT

Stream/Download: https://orcd.co/psfireflies

I think everyone my age would agree Fireflies is one of those nostalgic records that just hits. Reminds me of younger times hanging with my friends, school trips and a crazy unsorted playlist on my iPod that went from bangarang to flo rida. I'm just really happy I can put my own spin on it years later and feel that young excitement when listening. Big thanks to meseta who I think beautifully covered the vocals and my friends kittito and disphing for helping me with this record.

This is the year I really feel like all this hard work comes together.

2024 was the warmup I needed to get all my remaining music out and wrap up the first decade of Paper Skies. Stepping into 2025; I've never felt so rewarded with the opportunities coming my way - going to take full advantage of every single one, I've never felt so confident in the brand I'm building, and I've never been happier with the consistent new sound of all the music I have coming up. I feel like each of my descriptions on my releases is like a log where I just talk about however tf I'm feeling RIGHT now that I know only my real supporters read, so this will be a good one to look back on. None of what's gonna happen this year is possible without the support of you, reading this right now. Not to "big things coming soon" I'm just really excited.

Obviously always loved Knock2's song writing so I really wanted to spin a cut off his new album. Hope you like my take on this one and tried a few different things across the track.
