Bio: The Scenecore community on Tumblr is something I'm really thankful to be involved with. When I'm not saying dumb stuff, making bad decisions, breaking down and losing what little of my crumbling sanity and emotional stability I have left it's really nice to reblog some blingees of pop rock bands from the 2000s and a glittery Monster Energy Drink logo completely unironically. I feel like there's something really admirable about people trying to revisit the 2000s Myspace Emo-Scene (or scemo, if you will) trend but taking it back and leaving behind a lot of the more problematic and toxic aspects of it. I feel like a lot of good people came together and made a welcoming, friendly community of acceptance. But something I've always hoped would come out of this was someone being inspired by this wave of nostalgia and make something new. We're a massively nostalgia based community. We're nostalgic for old fashion, old bands, old internet trends and old graphics. Hell, even this blog was founded on the idea of revisiting the forgotten emo-scene artists from the MySpace days. That's all fine and good but sometimes you want to see something new, pure, from the heart and completely independent. To be an actual scene revival, we need someone to really revive it. And that's exactly what I found.

Boys and girls, cats and squirrels, meet the musician you've all been waiting for. Edie. This is the music project of @xx-fangz-up-2006-xx who I've been mutuals with for some time now, even back on old accounts of mine as well. Back in May of this year on the 11th, Edie put out a demo on her YouTube channel, Edie! At The Disco. The song is called “You Left Me”. It's a song about an unfaithful partner leaving her for someone else who'll likely have a similar experience. This demo was very rough but still full of heart. It was actually quite refreshing to hear.

A post on Tumblr revealed that Edie intended on writing more material. Originally Edie planned on making a full length album, but Edie instead settled with an EP set to come out a couple of months later. On October 24th she put up a new single called “Genuine Tears” and a remastered version of “You Left Me.” Although remastered, the independent, lo-fidelity quality vibe is still present. It just felt more... complete this time around. Then finally on November 3rd, the EP "Made With Blingee" came out. It featured “You Left Me,” “Genuine Tears,” and two new songs called "I Can See You In The Fog" and "Dream Person." Attached to the EP is this description:

"This EP is all my bottled negative emotions about people that i've had stored up in me for a very long time. All dressed up in pink, glitter and kandi, ready to kill you with a Hello Kitty knife. I hope you enjoy."

I don't think I could sum up Edie's music any better than she did herself but I’ll do my best to describe what I heard. It's very 2000s emo inspired but also reminiscent to independent MySpace pop music like The Perfect Measure, early Never Shout Never, or November Blessing and from my personal observations, even a bit of a Midwest Emo vibe to it. On the poppier side, mind you. Think The Juliana Theory or The Promise Ring. It sounds very humble and non-pretentious. It's stripped down, heartfelt music at it's finest and something I don't really see a whole lot of people trying to make anymore. A lot of the time these days, especially in mainstream music, people overproduce their music to insane amounts to but with Edie the attention is carefully and lovingly placed on the music and the lyrics, making it very down to earth and relatable instead of generic radio-fare. Genuinely good music sounds good even if it’s recorded on a potato and played with Fisher-Price instruments. Sometimes I tell people that I don't like pop music but that's actually not completely accurate of me. I like pop music when it's done RIGHT, and I really feel like this is an example of it being done right, done originally, and most importantly done for the right reasons.

What makes her music really unique is absolutely the quality of it. The songs are purposefully very minimal production-wise with a sort of Lo-Fi/Bedroom Pop vibe. It really helps to drive home the emotive aspects and the relatability. She's absolutely sold me on that because it works so great. The whole EP sounds like it was made by a mid-late 2000s emo-scene girl which was kinda the whole point of this EP in the first place. I feel like that's another goal met. It really does feel like a snapshot from a completely different time. It's a homage to a past era without being just a carbon copy of what other people were doing. I really feel like Edie has a ton of potential and a strong start. I'd love to see her make more music, perhaps even a full album someday.

I really hope you guys not only go listen to her music on Bandcamp but you actually buy the EP to support Edie monetarily. I think it's very important to support independent artists and with music this good it's so worth it. I’d really love to see where she goes from here. Edie, I sincerely want to thank you for introducing “ediecore” to the world and I hope this isn't the end of you musical journey.

Hey guys, I don’t often post about personal things on here because this site is more of a place for me to rave about things I love rather than talk about life. (Which is more of what my instagram is for) but anyway... most of my followers here don’t know that i’ve started making my own music recently. 

I’ve never really considered being a singer until fairly recently, and i’ve been having dreams of putting myself out there in that way. so i’ve decided as well as artistic endeavours, I will be making music too. 

Originally, I had the ambition of making a full length album early. I wanted to come in big and grandiose and deliver songs about every single personal issue i’ve had in the past few months, but realising how long it actually takes to make quality music I ended up shortening it to an EP to start easy. I picked five songs I had written with ideas I liked the most, and soon, I developed inspiration from the scene aesthetic from this community here and tried to weave it into the feeling and the branding of this EP, I want this EP to sound like something an angsty scene/emo girl would’ve written herself in the mid-late 2000s. Hoping that she’d profit and become famous off her teenage angst and tour with her favourite bands and artists to spite all the people who wronged her enough to make her write these songs. 

In a way, i’ve created my own little character. This person is me, the songs are about me and my own thoughts and feelings but also it’s this odd alter ego of myself at the same time. The perfect me! The me I dream of being! As i’m walking through school bracing myself for another repeat of yesterday, in my head I dream of a me who isn’t afraid of her enemies/demons. A me who is just casually getting a phone call from Pete Wentz while her friends are wondering how she maintains such a casual conversation with him despite him being THE Pete Wentz. A me who has to leave school early to fly to America because she has a seat at the grammys and her pink and black princess dress and horse pulled carriage are waiting for her. This is me, but this is also everyone out there who’s had this dream. The dream of being the cool girl or guy, who’s already out there accomplishing things and making waves. This EP is about my road to the perfect me, and all the highs and lows i’m going through to become her. 

This whole EP is supposed to sound rough and demo-ish, not just because of my lack of resources but also because it’s kind of the point. My life is rough, and I want to share it with you and let you know you’re not alone. Some of these songs will be more polished than others, and some I might not be proud of later but i’ll always be happy to remaster things. 

The full EP obviously hasn’t dropped yet, I speculate it will be out in at least a couple of months as I get the technicalities of these songs sorted out so they’re absolutely perfect and something both you and me can be proud of. The full release date is TBA for now, but while you wait here is my first single You Left Me. 

You Left Me is a song about a partner who had spent several days telling me I was special and that no one could ever be better. Only to go back on their own words and leave me for someone new. The new partner, is inevitably ready to suffer the same fate that I did and being left in the cold eventually. Having no clue what they’ll experience, and the feelings that I felt of suddenly having no one to tell me how much they wanted to hold me and gently stroke my hair... all because someone else deserved it more. 

It took me months to get over the fact that I would have to wait a while for someone to love me like that again. I’ve had to learn to suck it up, love myself and take pride in other things I enjoy. Even then, there are still nights where i’m lonely and I want more than just a pillow and my imagination for company. This song is that bundle of mixed feelings I felt after the breakup that left me a mess. I’m sure a lot of you might know how that feels. I hope that you relate to this song just as much as I do. 

This song is listed as a demo, because I might potentially remake it someday as I have more people to help me now. This might not make it on the full EP, but it’s out here in the world and I couldn’t be more proud of my first musical endeavour. After all, the first version of Time To Dance wasn’t even a bonus track for A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out. Yet Brendon Urie still looks back on it fondly anyway, as it was one of the first things he ever did with the band. 

You can listen to this on Bandcamp and buy it! (The link is here), but also on Soundcloud (which is just called Edie) and the audio is on Youtube too (Edie! At the Disco) I’ll be trying to get it on Spotify too, but watch this space for now. 

Thank you for taking your time to read this. I’m very happy to have introduced EDIECORE into this world! 

Edie Xx
