JackReynolds: Yay! First of all, how’s 2021 going for you?
Zealot of Stockholm: 2021 is off to a pretty slow start ngl; can’t say I saw myself still doing online school, but here we are! Grateful for everything as per and I’ve been spending a lotta time on this site too
JackReynolds05: That’s awesome! What’s your favorite part of 2021 so far?
Zealot of Stockholm: Honestly? Probably just going out on walks or for a long drive with my mom blasting out music haha, purely because we’re still in lockdown right now. I guess it’s made me more appreciative of the time I spend with her too, now that we’re forced to constantly be around each other.
^And that’s just because I know once it’s over we’ll both be back to our busy lives.
Zealot of Stockholm: I get it! I spend with my mom 24/7. I love her, but sometimes, I want to bang my head against the wall! But that’s not the point. What’s your favorite activity to do — other than listening to music, of course?
Zealot of Stockholm: No I totally get that haha. Asides from listening to music, before this whole pandemic I used to train bjj — brazilian jiu jitsu — and regularly compete. In retrospect, that definitely helped me build up my confidence and it was actually really fun to learn all these patterns in not only my movement, but my opponent’s. Can’t wait to hopefully get back into it soon! For now though, I like playing the guitar and piano :D
JackReynolds05:D! I’ve always wanted to play Piano and guitar but, not right now! Have you made any music?
Zealot of Stockholm: Y'know I had this biiig phase back in 2018 where I would used to be on my laptop 24/7 making beats. I got the chance to speak to a lot of producers in the game so I’m always thankful for that. Then I was part of a band for a short while – I’m not the greatest singer, so I’d help write the songs and come up with the melody. Nowadays, I still do a lot of songwriting. Who knows, I might just get my band back together!
Zealot of Stockholm: That’s cool! Ya'know, if you want to have your own music out there in the world — meaning Spotify, YouTube, iTunes, etc… — there is a website that allows you to distribute your music to the world FOR FREE! You can upload unlimited music and distribute unlimited albums/singles. The website is called SongTradr… just a thought…
Okay! Let’s talk about Lyrxo. How did you find Lyrxo?
Zealot of Stockholm: Thank you for linking me with that, I’ll check it out!
August 2020 I was just searching up the lyrics to a song, something by Marc E. Bassy, but to my dismay, the lyrics weren’t there! Shocking, right? So I transcribed that and then that was it. Until January 2021, when Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘drivers license’ came out. I don’t really keep up with pop culture so I was obviously really confused. Searched it up on Lyrxo and there were no annotations! I ended up annotating that song and began talking to people in the community… The rest is history.
JackReynolds05: Lol! That’s awesome! What is your favorite part about Lyrxo?
Zealot of Stockholm: Easily all of you guys, especially through communicating and getting to know everybody better from our beloved ScopeY’s ‘Get Involved! Vol. 5’
