Here’s a compilation of every project and track James Mercer has been on (producer songwriting credits or sings on etc)
I’m a die hard fan I started perusing a career in the industry in the hopes to one day meet the guy lol

Noticed that he produced a song by an artist Merce Lemon that came out today and did sort of a deep dive on him. He is a Asheville based producer who has worked with some of the most up and coming indie rock groups of the last couple of years like Wednesday, Indigo De Souza, MJ Lenderman, Snail Mail and Squirrel Flower. His body of work is truly astonishing while having a reasonably low profile.

I first found out about him when he performed in Porter Robinson’s Secret Sky Fest in 2021, and the rest is history. His music to me has just been the perfect combo of the most formative genres to me growing up, like the alt-rock I would listen to on the school bus radio, and the electronic music one of my high school besties put me on to. It’s just so nostalgic for me yet feels so fresh at the same time.
And then in 2023 he put out his second EP “Everything Perfect” and holy shit!!! I saw and continue to see a lot of myself in that project with just how much of a ride love can be, especially if it’s unrequited.
I saw James Ivy perform live at the Bowery Ballroom supporting that album and it was one of the best and most fun nights of my life. I can go on and on but I’ll stop myself here hehe

🎶among his many projects, my two favorites are 1tbsp (edm) and golden vessel (singer songwriter/indie). his prolificness and a majority of his work being collaborations are two of the main reasons he’s such an inspiration to me. he also manages to release music that coincides with whatever life thing im going thru so thats cool

In this regard, to what I like to call a funk.
I feel très dookie. Lots of change in my life, and in times of instability I tend to fall off the horse- in a major way. Like many ppl. This past go round I have been excessively hard on myself over my general lacking in… well almost everything. Ive come to the conclusion that there are times you have to give yourself more grace than you’d like to. Maybe the pity party can last a couple more days than usual. I won’t go into details, bc as those of you reading who have dealt with mental health struggles, it can be sort of gross. Sure. There’s a ton I could be doing to put an end to my funk. Make more of an effort to dig myself out of the hole. But, at the end of the day I know I will come out of the funk in my own time. Faking myself out, and convincing myself I’m feeling better serves no one.
Making yourself feel worse over feeling bad in the first place is just wildly counterproductive. Just keep moving forward in time. There’s a lot of it <3

Rough week... Months, rough months. Decided on a whim to crash w my friend an hour outside the city for a while. I was lucky enough to finish my mural early. First night here and I already feel a good bit better :)
