Abstract

'Things Used To Be Fun' is an Alternative Electro Pop EP by the artist 'PJ', following the narrative of metaphysical creation into a world unfit to support the protagonist as he discovers his own self-actualisation through emotional hardships. The body of work is a total of seven individual tracks which blend into its own enchanting journey with unique production and textures that are refreshingly blissful to the ears. The EP contains themes of battling toxic masculinity, the psychology of intimate relationships during youth, discovering one's self-worth and the struggle of accepting it in a society fixated on condemning individuality and outspokenness. With its unique artistic perspective, PJ's 'Things Used To Be Fun' breathes a fresh air into the Pop scene, grounding itself in its self-aware idiosyncrasies as it calls upon the listener to introspectively see the similarity between themselves and the world around them: in order to get back to when things used to be fun, they are both in need of great change.
