Self-produced artist PATx fuses Hip-Hop and Alternative to create an unapologetic sound. Pat wears tactical gear and masks in his visuals and live performances as a physical representation of raging against internal struggles and fighting adversity. He also uses his music to address topics ranging from mental illness to introspection and self-improvement.
As a child, Pat would spend hours playing with toys and creating worlds. When he wasn't playing with action-figures, he was drawing. These actions would manifest into his passion for visual art, and eventually film. In 2019, Pat acquired a Master's Degree in Media Arts with a focus in narrative cinematography.
During his childhood, Pat's mother kept him in church and made him sing on the youth choir. In an attempt to escape from having to lead songs in the choir, Pat gravitated towards the band. He would eventually gain mentorship from keyboard and organ player, and learn to play himself. After being gifted a music program software from the keyboardist, Pat would go on to create music using the DAW. Unknowingly, these years of being taught harmonization, song structure, and instrumentation as a child would allow Pat a strong foundation for creating music; eventually elevating it to a higher-level as PATx.
In 2022, Patrick created PSYCHii, a production company and creative agency. PSYCHii uses the endless complexity of the brain and mind as a playground for artistic expression. These "expressions" present themselves in the form of creative products, services, and media. PSYCHii likes to think "weird" is a super-power, "small-talk" is a nuisance, and deep conversation is one of the best ways to acquire something we all desire: connection. The goal is to not only provide unique material to our customers and clients, but to also connect with them through collaboration and art.
PSYCHii resonates with individuals who are artists, enthusiasts, rebels, thinkers, and dreamers. We strive to present strategies and content as vibrant as the minds of our audience and community: the movers and shakers of the world.
