SHYE, 23, ARTISTE & MUSIC PRODUCER

- NOELLE LOH

WHAT DISTINGUISHES HER WORK: “My DIY approach to making music — I write, record, produce, mix and master all my music from home. It started out this way due to necessity, as I'm not formally trained and I wanted to learn to do things myself, but it has since become my modus operandi. I love how it means that I’m learning all the time, and it's a way for me to push boundaries. It has also translated to the visuals of my videos, which tend to be raw and have an intentional ‘low budget’ quality, as I record them on a camcorder. I never set out to represent myself this way, but it’s something that I’ve made work for me and feels authentic to me.”

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING SHE'S WORKING ON NOW: “I’m finishing my next album, which I had originally intended to launch last year, but I was going through a bit of a slump then, so I took a break and started fresh, and I’m happy I did that because it’s coming together better now ... It focuses on the things and people that matter in this lifetime, no matter the struggles and distractions we face.”

CURRENT CULTURAL OBSESSION: “I'm a sucker for all things cute and I’ve been obsessed with the anime adaptation of Chiikawa since last year.”

CELEBRITY CRUSH: “Nana Komatsu is my forever crush. Also, Anya Taylor-Joy and Sophie Thatcher.”

WHAT MAKES HER CRUSH ON SOMEONE: “I think it’s attractive when someone is cool but completely unaware that he or she is cool. I also have a soft spot for shy types with a good sense of humour, and find it cute when people geek out about things that excite them.”

SOMETHING SHE'D SAY TO A FORMER CRUSH: “Who?”
