About Me - Fxrgxtten

I. Intro to Fxrgxtten

Who am i? Just a regular dude trying to earn a few buck from the art I make. Why? Because the complete feeling of freedom is my ultimate goal and money is a big component in reaching that. Now I wish not to post any of my own personal information on the Internet so that is something you will not see at any point in time. I'll share with you my motivations, inspirations, reasons, the backstories behind every artwork that I made and my view on the World. If that is something you'd find interesting keep an eye on this page.

II. More Details

Before I started my Redbubble, or actually the whole "Print On Demand" journey, I've done many and tried many things. From trying to be an athlete ambassador for some brand. A bit of backstory to that, I was training StreetWorkout from the year 15 and posted that on instagram. As I was doing my thing I caught their eye and they wished for me to sponsor their clothes on social media and be their ambassador. But that fell into the water since at the age of 16 I wasn't allowed to do that.

Now later on in the history, I spent a year on reading and making horror narration video using a robotic voice that can still be found on YouTube. The reason why I used the robotic voice was because, first and formost I wasn't comfortable enough to share that with my closest friends and family and narrating text and making video would ruin that... However, due that time I kinda fell in love with making that kind of video and the vibes I felt I was making. So if horror genre videos are your kind of thing and don't mind a robotic voice then be my guest. Go and watch all you want on my YouTube channel - called "The Forgotten Ones".

Besides all that I was interested in programming and coding, so that is the reason you are currently seeing this website. I made it with my own knowledge I gained over the time. For those that are also interested in that kind of thing let me know and I'll dedicate my time and make an extension to this site dedicated to my programming path.

III. Inspirations

The inspiration that lie behind fxrgxtten's art is at the most part inspired by the whole metal music genre. I was always interested and fascinated by the metal bands logos, especially the craziest ones, ones you'd find the in the SLAM, Deathcore, Death metal subgenre of metal.

My journey on how I got into metal and the deepest pits of that genre started by the bands Skillet and Linkin Park. They were the first ones that show me what it meant to bring a electric guitar to the music and that's why I stayed. Now those band and bands like Devourment, Lorna Shore or Nitheful are almost polar opposites in the genre of music, so how did I get there? What was my bridge that would allow me to normal cross to that side? Well there are actually two bands that managed that, Asking Alexandria and Disturbed. Disturbed were the ones that showed me what it meant to have super powerful and brutal guitar riffs while Asking Alexandria showed me what it meant have a band that relied on mostly screams of different base sounds rather then normal singing. That was where I first heard the super low and super high screams. Then I slowly transitioned from metalcore to deathcore subgenre with the bands like Slaughter To Prevail, Shadow of Intent, Enterprise Earth, Angelmaker, etc. Those bands could be considered as super heavy and an aquired taste, but for those that have dwelled in the further depths of the genre find them as relaxing and listenable, no offense to the bands that was not meant as an insult or a bad thing. Now those depths that are so dark that are not heard randomly on the Internet but you'd have to find them yourself, could be described as one band, Nitheful. Honestly the heaviest and darkest band that I have found to this day, and I've seen most of the bands from the SLAM subgenre.

Moving on, each of those mentioned bands have something that they share, they all have specific and cool logos of their names. The logos that have been dragged through each album, EP and single covers and tours. Just by the way they look intriqued me to the bone and made me what to make them by myself, and now we are on this day.

IV. Future Plans

As far as future plans come into a play, well I wish to make a comfortable living off of the art that I make, while that could not be possible I will not quit until I know that I'm dragging a dead horse.

That I plan to achieve by learning more about marketing and improving on the art I make so it would be more desirable for people to buy and have them on their things.

By focusing on the present is the way that I can maximize my success in the future!
