Artist Introduction
What’s your stage name and where are you from?
Askro Ice Cold
What’s the story behind your stage name?
My name came from two things – me describing everything as ‘ice cold’ and it’s also inspired by Andre3000 and Frank Ocean using ‘ice cold’ in their music. And Askro is Astro with a ‘k’.
Describe your musical journey in three sentences.
I started making music at 19. I chop all my own jazz/soul rap beats and spit all my own bars. I feel like my music is very natural and organic, and I try to create spiritually.
Fan Engagement
Share an interesting experience you had while creating your latest track.
I had the opportunity to interview on a local Eora radio station, FBI radio. It was fly.
What message do you want to convey through your music?
Make organically and with your third eye open! I’m trying to convey my life experience through all my art.
Behind the Music
Tell us about a challenge you faced during production and how you overcame it.
In the mixing and mastering part of my release, I had to mix and re-mix and draft so many versions of the tracks but eventually, I got them smooth.
If you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
I wanna collab with Earl Sweatshirt because he’s been a favorite artist of mine since I was a kid.
Future Aspirations
Where do you see your music taking you in the next year?
In the next year, I want to elevate my music and art levels higher! I want to be able to share my music and performance with places other than Australia and Eora.
What’s the next big step for you as an artist?
Making art on a grander scale, executing and polishing my artistic style. And to keep improving until I’m undeniably good at this.
