ALXNE is a full-fledged creative as an artist, producer, instrumentalist, engineer, and podcaster on the award-winning Highstreet. ALXNE shares his background beginning as a guitarist, which ultimately led him down the path he’s on today. As a guitarist, he’s played in multiple bands and toured the country, most notably on Justin Clancy’s tour in 2024.
ALXNE is now focused on the upcoming release of his album ‘Placebo’ which showcases his range as an artist instrumentally and vocally. As someone who engineers and produces for others frequently, ALXNE & Mike also discuss the difficulty in balancing creating for others and finding time to create for yourself. ALXNE also reflects on Highstreet winning Podcast of the Year at the Boston Music Awards, detailing how far the show has come, while highlighting some of their notable guests, which include Lil Xan, Dom McLennon of BROCKHAMPTON, amongst others.
ALXNE & Mike also discuss a range of topics including the history and reputation of psychedelics in the mainstream world, Playboi Carti’s latest album and whether or not music should be labeled as “good or bad”, ALXNE’s love for arcade games at Roxy’s, and so much more.
