Biography

    When in a dream state, many people experience watching their wildest wonders through a tv screen. While it may seem farfetched to see actual reality through a screen, it is said that a tv can represent mental escape, a gateway through dimensions in which can take you anywhere, or even self reflection. Justin Bender relays these indistinct feelings and concepts through his sound, crafting frequencies that almost sound like they’re crying to you from somewhere you couldn’t grasp. All of this is contributing to the story of his own experiences with escape and self reflection, in attempts to sherpa the listener safely through these dimensions. 

    

    Justin grew up loving cartoons. Something about the art form, the coloration, the stories, really spoke aloud to him. The creativity and liberation of creating from scratch, and the only limitation being what you can imagine, is enough to inspire anybody at a young age. The desire to create for justin sprouted in drawing, which blossomed into an infinite desire to create. On car rides, his mother would play Nirvana and R.E.M. CDs. After receiving an old mp3 player from his uncle and learning how to download mp3 files on it from the computer, he began growing an interest in many different genres of music. After this, sound became an all day, every day mindset. Writing covers of songs he enjoyed as well as creating his own melodies and lyrics in his head, it was soon an instinct. As time went on, the dream of being a creator started to dwindle, as he didn’t know how or where to start. But at the age of 14, his uncle gave him his first first guitar and it hardly ever touched the rack. Since then, he’s been devoted to turning his mind into sound at the highest level.
