Stars. The Moon. How strange that distant things have always captured our attention.
Awakener is a collection of songs and visuals born out of distance and the compulsion to create in the face of an overwhelming present, and an unknowable future. Every note played, every pixel placed, every lyric crafted in isolation. Artists creating together by breaking through physical boundaries on an Ark made of data. And now we present it to you.
Who is we, you ask?
My name is Wax and my life is a testament to why you should never give up and how having people that care about you is the best type of currency. Nate Hill is one of those people. He has believed in me from the very beginning. Between doing work for Apple and Disney he would make gorgeous artwork for my music, bringing this amazing hypnotic vision that was a perfect companion piece to what I was doing. And he’s done it again with this collection.
10 Open Editions that are the key
If you HODL 5 or more unique pieces when the stars change, Be careful of what may awaken.
If you acquire all 10 at the beginning of the story, Be careful of what you become.
1/1 Auction featuring my song “The Way Down” that was produced by Mike Shinoda live on Twitch for his #shinodaproduceme initiative, also done in isolation. See, I have been very fortunate in many ways, and when I was in a grave, with no more ideas or resources, I reached out to people who cared about me and they connected me with MusicCares and they, in turn, gave me the resources I needed to rebuild my life. To celebrate this resurrection all proceeds from the 1/1 Auction for “The Way Down” will goto MusicCares so they can help the next generation of artists who struggle with mental health. No matter how far down you are, please reach out. Your story will always have a new page to turn, and I know you have the courage to turn it.
