He is one of the most popular iNTERNET UNDERGROUND artists of hyperpop and scenecore genre of music.

Biography & Career
asteria grew up living in a small New Zealand town with music entering his life at a young age. It took a few different attempts before music became a bigger part of his life. The first form in which music entered his life was through guitar lessons at the age of seven. Guitar didn't interest him at all and he quit attending guitar lessons shortly. At the age of ten music entered his life again by his own influence by experimenting with making beats in FL Studio. This lead him to eventually trying to become a YouTube producer and uploading his beats on the platform in 2019. asteria said he wasn't consistent enough and hasn't found his sound back then yet. Another way of music entering his life was at the age of twelve, when him and his friends made diss tracks towards one another. asteria said he really liked that and was a lot better than his friends. He recorded these diss tracks in FL Studio, which lead him to learn writing lyrics about different topics and creating different style beats. Music was still a small part of his life during this time and he was even too self conscious to record while his parents were at home. However one of his first songs is the earliest song on his SoundCloud titled "paranoid". asteria recorded paranoid at age of thirteen years old, but didn't release until about a year later. At this point he eventually found a new place for his creativity to flurish, which was video editing. asterias brother was a professional Fortnite player, qualifying in Fortnite World Cup and travelling to New York City in 2019. asteria also had a friend by the name of Serpent who is making gaming related content, then began making a name for himself in the community. Because of Serpent and asterias brother, asteria became interested in the gaming community and started editing gaming related content himself. asteria was going by the nickname crayola at the time for his video edits and music he released, until he was hit with a copyright strike from the Crayola company. asteria went on to get signed to the gaming branch of overtime sports and edited for big creators. asteria did video editing for a few years but eventually got tired of it. He sat at the computer editing videos for even eight hours but didn't even care to watch them, so he said it wasn't worth it to him. asteria would put an end to his involvement in this towards the end of 2022. Circuling back to asterias involvement in music his journey would truly start in 2020. At this point asteria became increasingly interested in the hyperpop community listening to artists such as Midwxst, Glaive and Osquinn. asteria said Osquinn used to be his biggest inspiration in music. As mentioned earlier asteria released his song titled "paranoid" on 25th of June 2021. He voted out this song with a few more releases such as "let you down", "i didn't need you anyway" and "FUSION". It was a time when he was still able to create edits, so lyric videos. He created lyrics videos by himself to these songs, but later, for unknown reasons he deleted them. Reason of deleting them may be changing his style, as he used to, many times. Now their reuploads can be found on archive5077 's YouTube channel. After all that, asteria still wasn't taking music too seriously, but after releasing these songs, he noticed they started gaining some bigger attention. The attention these songs were receiving came to removing them from Spotify due to copyright reasons. asteria was using artwork from the Tokyo based artist called JUN INAGAWA. asteria was eventually able to reupload the songs with different artworks, but asteria is still a huge fan of him and keeps his influence alive in the cover arts asteria uses today. asterias current cover art artist is know as hkk.neighborhood shares asterias appreciation for JUN INAGAWAs work. After asteria was able to get his songs reuploaded he had the motivation to start taking the music seriously. He said that then he realised how much his music meant to him until it got stripped away. asteria wanted to start being more consistent with making and releasing music but still wasn't comfortable enough with recording while his parents were home. At this point asteria met a friend named Christian who was a season musician playing live music and being acquainted with music production. asteria went to Christians home-studio and recorded few songs, most notibly "FACE OF DEATH" and "attachments". At this point asteria started feeling himself as a successful musician, but that wasn't enough for him. He said he felt he had a lot of potential and his music was receiving some buzz. asteria dropped off from school to make more fulltime music and release it all in 2022 giving him extra motivation to be consistent with music. asteria told his parents that music was what he really wanted to do. asteria went on to release a few more songs, most notibly "like that" and "hell n back" (hell n backs first version got changed due to copyright reasons). Looking back at them he said these songs doesn't represent him well as an artist and he was still looking to find his sound. It was one day while asteria was on Instagram he saw a girl he was romantically interested in and saw a song titled "every single day" by kets4eki. asteria wanted to get closer to the girl by enjoying the same artist she did and he listened to this song. asteria fell in love with kets4ekis sound and realised he wanted to make music like this himself. kets4eki was still relatively small at the time and asteria went on to purchase a feature from him for the song titled "MOLLY" which released on 25th of January 2023. In the same month of January asteria had a car crash sustaining serious injuries. Following the crash, while in the hospital, he had given his friend his SoundCloud login information to release a song titled "BADDEST BITCH OUT" (2nd of January 2023). Luckily asteria was able to make a full recovery by half of February. While asteria was recovering he reached out to kets4eki again to buy another feature. This feature was for the song titled "i fucked her friend" and while in the hospital asteria sent kets4eki the beat he produced for the song. kets4eki loved the beat and this is where asteria found a consistent form of work-relationship with kets4eki. In March of 2023 asteria released another song with kets4eki titled "TRYNA FUCK" which was another big success. At the time of April asteria started to branch out to work with other big collaborators such as d3r, hubithekid, 6arelyhuman and nosgov. Throughout the month of June he began spamming his music on the application TikTok which was a good method and got his music heard. asterias hard work paid off and currently his Spotify sits at over 2.2 million monthly listeners. In the month of July asteria joined a collective called "FabFantasy" and at this day he released his and kets4ekis album titled "RAVE2DEATH".
