Zenxith

Daniel McGee aka Zenxith is a 22 year old prolific independent lofi D.I.Y. jangle post punk/indie pop/songwriter/musician from Newcastle England, who started making music in early 2022, just writing and recording in his bedroom & he still makes all of his music in the bedroom just using a phone & drum machine/drum loops to record it all, simply D.I.Y. bedroom recordings, Zenxith also runs his own label.

Zenxith makes gentle lofi indie pop with jangle melodies & very direct lead lines to accompany the multi tracked exasperated vocals, no band, no studio, all D.I.Y. & solo. Covered in tambourines & slightly influenced by the late 1970s D.I.Y. post punk era & the 80s indie pop era such as the c86 cassette, and the Sarah Records bands, however it is pretty distinctive.

Zenxith does play live, but he doesn’t have a band behind him, so it’s just him & his guitar, simplistic & DIY.

Hellstone Record’s “Zenxith is a diy project of the son of Barse’s former singer and guitarist Andy (the album’s Negative Reaction, They Said It Couldn’t Happen Here… and the Council estate -EP) He’s influenced by early lofi post punk and indie bands and one can hear his dads pop sensibilities there”.

Andrew Burnett from Close Lobsters “Absolutely essential listening”.

Zenxith’s main inspirations are The Church, Television Personalities, Close Lobsters, The Field Mice, Razorcuts, Felt & The Monochrome Set, but it’s mainly Daniel Treacy who inspired him the most to write songs.
