Journey
Matthew Joines, recognized by his stage name "asteria," is a New Zealand-born singer, songwriter, and producer who has become a leading figure in the "scenecore" and "hyperpop" sub-genres. Joines began his musical journey in 2021 by experimenting with electronic production, quickly cultivating a massive digital following through internet culture and social media platforms. His career reached a pivotal turning point in late 2023 with the release of the viral single "WHAT YOU WANT!," a collaboration featuring the vocaloid Hatsune Miku that has since amassed over 60 million streams worldwide.
The "asteria" discography is characterized by chaotic, high-octane energy, featuring frenetic electronic beats and repetitive, hypnotic hooks. His full-length project, "ASTERIA VOL. 1," serves as a consolidation of his most influential tracks, including "EYES ON ME," "DIE FOR YOU," and "TELL ME LIES." Throughout his rise, he has been a central member of the FabFantasy collective and later founded his own independent label, Anarchist Sanctuary. He is also a sought-after producer, notably crafting the Billboard-charting hit "Faster n Harder" for 6arelyhuman.
Defined by an anarchist aesthetic and a genre-defying approach, Joines continues to innovate within the global electronic scene. His work is distributed through major channels, including the Sony Music Entertainment ecosystem, where he bridges the gap between underground internet-based rap and mainstream commercial success. By consistently evolving his vocal style and production techniques, he has solidified his reputation as a pioneering voice for a new generation of digital-first artists.
