  • Hey all! Today I’m talking about why I haven't been uploading vlogs, covers, or even videos with my band. Recently I’ve been burning out as a content creator, feeling intimidated in the face of a stronger audience, but I’ve decided to get out of my own head.

    Hey dude, I 100% feel everything you said in your video. I felt the same going from being a bedroom audio nerd to the next week deciding what artists get to get on what playlists or what bands the label is gunna reject. The burnout is real man and I feel it. Take care buddy, great to see you picking yourself up man! Also upload whatever you want my guy it's all lit content anyways!

    Keep doing what you do! Working for yourself/art is really admirable. Tour diaries/behind the scenes stuff is always a great way for fans to feel connected to artists. I really enjoyed the Periphery "Remain Indoors" documentary for example.

      Thanks so much! I love periphery and their whole vision and work ethic. Definitely what i strongly wanted to model Asylus after!

    Thanks for putting this out, man- been feeling the same - appreciate all you do for URM, I had no idea you had this as well. Been smoked myself as of late - I have dubbed it an almost never ending cycle of self doubt and criticism. Take the breaks you need my man! Hope to meet you at Summit.

    This is awesome man, we do have to be careful with ourselves as to not burn out, its difficult at times because you always want to be pushing and working to the point where sometimes you feel bad that you're not working but that's our "creative curse" we always have to be creating in a way its what we do! I also am a musician, engineer, and content creator now, I feel you 100% on all of this!

    It’s not about knowing when it’s perfect, it’s about knowing when it’s finished. Keep it up man!

      Thanks man! I'm glad you gave this a watch. I'm learning more about deadlines and while constantly challenging myself.

    Done is better than none. Something we know all too well and firmly agree with. This video hit home on so many things, we've gone through the same struggles. Love you Mel. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO.

      Thanks man! I loved that quote so much, it helped me concentrate so much on finishing worn and sticking to deadlines along with "art is surrender."

    I feel this 100% bro. Very nice production and keep grinding. Art is art and don’t let the pressure hold you back.

      I definitely liked this video and i'm looking forward to whatever you're uploading, no matter if it's a vlog, tutorial or musik video. It seems really interesting what you're doing and who you work with. Have i nice day and don't overwork yourself.
