asteria

Matthew James Joines (born 27 May 2006), known professionally as asteria (stylized in all lowercase), is a New Zealand record producer, singer, and songwriter currently based in Warsaw, Poland. He is a prominent figure in the "scenecore" and krushclub subgenres, known for a production style he describes as "sonic anarchy." He began his musical career at age 14, producing and mixing beats in 2019 under the names crayola and smilecrayola, later joining the Goreset collective in 2021.

His 2023 single "What You Want!", featuring the virtual singer Hatsune Miku, surpassed 60 million streams on Spotify. In 2024, he released "Eyes on Me", a departure from his usual style as it utilized his natural vocal register.

Personal life Joines dated Russian-Estonian model and singer Britney Manson until mid-2024, when he announced their breakup on an Instagram story. His musical influences include Osquinn, Odetari, Lil Peep, and Wifiskeleton.
