lolaboredhey pixelfed, I’m lolabored 🦋<br> I’m a musician from Scotland:) If you like trip-hop you’ll love my song Emerge, and if you’re into contemporary rock or electronic music you might like my songs AURA or Pisces. Check out my music at the link in my bio💫<br> I take a lot of inspiration from artists like Björk and Eartheater but I’d say my lyrics are inspired by the likes of Fiona Apple and Massive Attack🪐 I’m currently writing more music and I’m kind of using this place like a moodboard to throw visual inspiration at, but I also want to connect with other creatives. So if that’s you give me a follow!🍒🍒🍒<br> Hope to see more people fleeing META and coming over here it seems way more fun. <br> <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/musician?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#musician</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/newmusic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#newmusic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photo</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/artist?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#artist</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/y2k?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#y2k</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/triphop?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#triphop</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/electronicmusic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronicmusic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/contemporaryrock?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#contemporaryrock</a>
