Career

Technically starting as a MINECRAFT Youtuber & skit vlogger online in 2014. An "analog auteur"; Jonátan recalls always having been writing, performing & singing as a child. Only by self in secret. Thus leading to a creative stagnation 2015-2021, all the while having been uploading trivial mundane content to Vine, Youtube, TikTok, Instagram on & off. However under the stage names "JUAN VRDE", "JUAN ALAN" & "JOEI ALAN" ,Jonátan didn't publicly begin sharing audio-verse,drag, & visual journals online until the early 2020s.

His 25 track Debut Instrumental audio project, PobreChiqueado Vol.1 (2023), would be described as a LATAM rough edges soundtrack-classic that fuses distorted synths with full organ, bell,drum loop satires. Among abandoned stage names & their mixtapes, That very fall J.A goes full out of universe ambient with Technostar.

Style and Themes

Recurring themes in J.A’s work include religious imagery, erotic fixation, lux ambition, self critique with devotion, & psychological fragmentation.

His writing and music often engage with sexuality & spirituality meshing, rather than as opposing forces. Having catholic symbolism, domestic intimacy, & SLY satire recur as dissection motifs. His work is 2 b known for its couture DIY aesthetics, western gothic humor, and philosophical layering. Critics (mayb self-published or imaginary...) often cite him as “Rosalina if she coded her own heartbreak.” This being because his projects tend to blur the boundary between confession and performance. Much rather than prioritizing accessibility or narrative closure, Alan frequently looks directly to essential discomfort, glamouros ambiguity, & emotional excess. He believes in addition, online presence should & when applicable, mirror this approach. Remaining deliberately opaque and occasional confrontations(the high road), with minimal effort made to contextualize or soften thus output. For freedom of nuance, which is dire now in day. "El q nada debe. Nada teme."
