ANECDOTE

From Loop Pedal To Producer

  • Madison started as a live acapella performer using a loop pedal and layered vocals, which locked her into preset structures.
  • That limitation pushed her to learn production so she could realize the other textures she heard in her head.
ADVICE

Turn Forced Downtime Into Creative Growth

  • Madison began producing during the pandemic because she needed a new outlet when live shows stopped.
  • Try using forced downtime to learn new creative skills that you've been imagining but never started.
ANECDOTE

  • Madison originally titled the track 'cramps' after writing it while dealing with severe period pain and using an edible.
  • That raw moment of physical discomfort produced one of her first beats she genuinely liked while learning production.
