Nic Endo MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Nic Endo? Nic Endo is an INTJ personality type in MBTI, 8w7 - - in Enneagram, in Big 5, SLE in Socionics.
"Being skilled and controlling the technical side of electronic music is not a 'male’ thing. Nobody should feel limited to make electronic music only based on some 'gut instinct’, because they’re female. Electronic music is about brains. It is about the quality of the music, what the music conveys and the person, who created it. I would like to see music, like any other art form and craft perceived and criticized based on these premises only and not by gender. Labeling music coming from women as 'female electronic music’ or 'female rap music’, as if they were a genre of their own, in my opinion, has done more damage than good." "I’ve never felt any calling whatsoever to make music in the first place. I took classical piano lessons for years, starting at a young age. I was mostly playing/performing classical compositions and it was all more of a technical and theoretical practice. But joining Atari Teenage Riot in 1996 really kickstarted and engaged my interest in electronic music. I was curious and wanted to know about how you create music with machines, how to express emotions and ideas by creating synthesized sounds and programming arrangements with computers, that’s what eventually drove me to create music myself. I believe that all music is inevitably coded with emotional notions and social ideas of the person who created it." "In my opinion, your visual appearance must extend your music; it must reflect your music. Björk has done this probably best over the past decades, while Lady Gaga did the exact opposite. She disguised the mediocrity of her music, which, to be fair, makes her sell more records than Björk. She wears these over-the-top outfits that, at the end of the day are mostly inspired by the avant-garde. It’s like she is flicking through the books, grabbing ideas without context. It sounds negative, but I don’t mean that. I prefer that over artists who dress themselves as if they were your neighbors." I'd be open to dispute on this one as I'm not 100% confident in ENTJ though I can't see anything other than xNTx tbh. She seems to be a high Te user. EDIT: revising my typing to INTJ 5w4
