On today’s episode of Fuent Chat with Johnny Fuent, we’re doing something I’ve somehow never done before: bringing on a music artist. After talking to animators, writers, voice actors, company presidents, and everyone in between… It’s about time.

And we’re starting strong with ASTRX*, one of the fastest-rising names in Nerdcore right now. We dive into how she first got into making music, the early songs she experimented with, and the ones she’s still keeping in the vault like secret DLC. She takes me through the process of building her new album, Out for Blood, from the ideas and the work to the creative chaos and the “does this song even belong here?” moments.

We also talk about her collabs with Wulf Boi, McGwire, and other big Nerdcore artists she’s connected with, how those relationships started, and the dream collabs she still wants to make happen. We get into performing live, her favorite stages, and the moment she realized, “Okay… people are actually showing up for me.”

And we dig into her creative spark, including how she takes the shows, stories, and worlds she loves and turns them into something completely her own.

It’s a conversation that really shows why she’s on the rise. Let’s head in.
