XTINE

Today we’re getting under the hood with XTINE, a daughter, sister, women’s advocate and an emerging singer, and songwriter in the alt-pop scene, crafting a sound that emphasizes emotional depth and narrative. 

Drawing inspiration from artists like Sia, Sleeping at Last, and Björk, her tracks offer a mix of lyrical storytelling and sophisticated production. With each song, XTINE aims to create a genuine emotional connection, using her music as both self-expression and a means for listeners to engage with their own experiences.

Starting with early exposure to music production at age 11, XTINE’s journey was shaped by personal challenges, including bullying and learning difficulties. She began writing and producing her own songs by 12, with her early work marking the beginning of a professional path. A pivotal moment in her career came at 12, when Sia encouraged her to continue creating. As she navigated mental health struggles, including depression, her music, such as "Beautiful Has No Cost," resonated with others facing similar battles. Her new single, "Nobody Stays," continues her exploration of emotional complexity, addressing themes of love, loss, and borderline personality disorder.
