Javier Romero @strangemagic.bsky.social · 27/03/2026As a 46 year old musician and songwriter the last 8 years have been crazy prolific. By my last count I’ve written 102 songs and I feel like I’m getting better and better! If you’re curious check my stuff out here. Everything fully written/recorded/performed by yours truly. strangemagic.bandcamp.comstrangemagic.bandcamp.comStrange MagicJavier Romero’s Strange Magic is a lo-fi power-pop fever dream - frantic, tuneful, and wildly prolific. Think Daniel Johnston with a DAW. 044
Javier Romero @strangemagic.bsky.social · 24/03/2026“Someday You’ll Fade” - A somewhat recent song I wrote when I found myself overwhelmed by just how ugly things seem be while trying to address the ugliest among us. I don’t like these interesting times 010

Javier Romero @strangemagic.bsky.social · 29/09/2025JK Rowling wrote fantastical books about being marginalized for arbitrary reasons. There are characters using potions to change gender to impersonate other characters. But in all her imagination she can't apply that thinking to ordinary life and understand that she might be wrongheaded. 010

Javier Romero @strangemagic.bsky.social · 23/09/2025The fear of autism (which is a spectrum by the way) has led to some gnarly behavior. People overly concerned with whatever their idea of normal is. What a sad and boring existence. I’d want to get raptured too! 010
Javier Romero @strangemagic.bsky.social · 23/09/2025It seems like the 10 Commandments are too complicated for some people. Heck, the people that talk about them the most seem to ignore them. How about 5 Suggestions? 110
