RUBINE IS LIVE, BABY! The album is streaming everywhere. I am greatly thankful for the press on the record, and the support it has gotten so far. The album peaked at NUMBER SEVEN on the Chicago Ambient charts via Bandcamp. The rest of the cassette run sold out within a few days of the album going live on the 8th and was totally gone by the 13th. That's insane to me, I am so humbled by the love for the record. Please keep bumping it! Share it with friends, stream it, tell people, tell your dogs, I dunno. The solo Bandcamp has done really well lately, it's gone from 20 something followers to over 50 in the span of a few weeks and this is the most any of my records has been downloaded. It's crazy to even begin process the success of it compared to prior records. As far as press goes, Rubine was featured on Chicago Soundcheck's Fresh Tracks, which you can check out here. Many thanks to Brian Shamie for the feature and support with both my own projects and Vanity Contest. 

Hey people, My new record “Rubine” drops April 8th. The latest single "Mouth of Canyon" is currently available on Bandcamp for streaming. You can pre-save the album through your streaming service of choice, include your email if you want to be entered to win a FREE cassette copy of the album! Tapes are limited to 20 copies, with a wider CD release this summer. Thanks for the support. About “Rubine”: “An abstract collision, seemingly still from the outside. Rubine’s synth-driven textures slowly evolve through slick and careful orchestration. This is electronic minimalism at its very best-and whether it’s intention is as so, one cannot help but truly meditate upon the inner workings of the mind and soul when experiencing this record.” Bandcamp: https://bradymatteson.bandcamp.com/album/rubine Streaming Pre-Save: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/bradymatteson/rubine

  Hey people, So a year ago Sleeper was released! If you're interested, I dropped some of the extra photography from the sessions. There's no demos or b-sides or anything, I only recorded everything I put on the record. Check it out below and if you'd like to download the album on me, you can find the BandCamp codes for it here . Brady

It’s time to walk into the light and accept your fate with open arms. Scared? Don’t worry. We’ll be there to hold your hand and guide you through this painless transition. But what’s the rush? Just relax and enjoy another hour of commercial ‘free yourself’ music on 103.5 Dawn FM. Tune in.” The Weeknd is one of the biggest artists on the planet right now, if not THE biggest artist out there. His previous album, 2020's After Hours , was a mammoth success that smashed record after record, charted endlessly, and sold thousands of copies. You've been living under a rock if you haven't heard  Blinding Lights or Save Your Tears over the past two years. Culminating in a glitzy, glamorous Super Bowl LV Half Time set, designed after the imagery and motifs of After Hours' Vegas settings. So how do you follow up THE bigg

pictured: me, a week ago 2021 was an... eventful year. Certainly more eventful than 2020, but equally, if not more scarring. With wrapping up my sophomore year of college and entering my junior year, there were plenty of ups, downs, and opportunities. Didn't love it, didn't hate it though! Some sure-fire highlights were getting to interview Ilan Rubin , completing the Capstone Challenge with Braven, and managing to pull a lot of really cool things together behind the scenes I can't quite talk about, music-wise. Speaking of music, some amazing albums came out this year. My list of favorites is below. I wanted to thank you folks for being good to me, I'm thankful I've made as many new friends this year as I have. It's been a really tough one emotionally and to have good people to turn to is a privilege. I'm glad I managed to get back to my job and glad I'm able to do what I do. A big struggle has been keeping motivated in just... all aspects of my life. I
