Project in development

Poorly Socialized

A project about autistic social masking. At its center is a reflective respirator mask: protective, isolating, and able to reflect what other people expect while preventing Alex’s real emotions from getting out.

Planned first single

Danger

The initial cover concept places the mask on a table before Alex chooses to wear it. Release details and final artwork are not locked.

The artist

Alex Garcia

Artefex is the music project of Alex Garcia, an Austin-based artist and producer. His work moves across original albums, unofficial remixes, DJ sets, and bass-heavy edits, using sound to process memory, grief, anxiety, relationships, and the future getting stranger by the day.

Every track is written and produced solo in Ableton. An engineering background shapes the detail: signal chains, sound design, structure, and low-end pressure.

Live

Vulnerability into impact.

Bass-heavy DJ sets built around emotional rap edits, dark atmosphere, aggressive drums, alien bass design, and drops that turn tension into motion.
