Wrapped in mystery and crowned with a surreal rabbit mask, GlassJack is not your typical DJ. His new single « Lucid Dreams » merges dreamy escapism with emotional weight, blurring the lines between fantasy and sonic reality. We sat down with the artist to talk church choirs, headphone addictions, and why he wants you to see yourself in his mask.
How did you get started in music? What was the triggering moment?
GlassJack: I grew up in the church and music was not just a big part, but my favorite part. Although I’m not religious, the music left a lasting impression and I started writing little tunes as a child. I haven’t looked back since!

Tell us the story behind the rabbit mask you wear, why the choice to remain anonymous?
GlassJack: The rabbit mask isn’t just a disguise, it’s a portal of sorts. It reflects more than just light; it reflects who you are in that moment. GlassJack isn’t about hiding, it’s about the energy and the experience, which comes first. I want people to connect with the sound and the story. The mystery creates space for your own meaning and that’s powerful. GlassJack is a symbol of escape, transformation, and freedom.
What inspired you to write your latest single « Lucid Dreams »?
GlassJack: I love to use my imagination and get lost. Sometimes, dreams are the perfect place to do that. The song is about dreaming of a lover, knowing you’re dreaming, and enjoying that time as a spiritual experience.
What does a typical day in the life of GlassJack look like?
GlassJack: My job and my life are pretty much music. I get up, get my coffee and workout. From there, I just do anything music related, new DJ mixes, mashups, social media content. It’s a full-time love affair.
As an independent artist, what has been the biggest challenge in advancing your career?
GlassJack: Definitely exposure and cost. Fighting to get my work in front of the masses and funding my own career have been the two biggest hurdles I’ve faced.
No cheating, tell us the last 3 songs you listened to today!
GlassJack: « Summertime Sadness – Tall Boys Remix », « We Be Burnin’ (Recognize It) – Esox Remix », « Paradise – Colin Jay Remix »
An item you can’t go without on a daily basis?
GlassJack: My AirPods. I love to listen to music while working out and I’ve gotta have my headphones.
If you could give one piece of advice to aspiring artists who want to live off their music, what would it be?
GlassJack: Put yourself out there! Do small shows, make connections and keep your masters. Don’t be afraid of failure.
What are your goals for 2026?
GlassJack: Do more shows and festivals! I’ve really focused on live sets this year. I’ll be in the San Francisco Pride Parade on the JP Morgan Chase float. Next step: big festivals.
Any final words?
GlassJack: I hope I can be your new favorite DJ! Love y’all!
In a world full of noise, GlassJack stands out not by shouting the loudest, but by crafting sonic journeys that feel both intimate and electric. With « Lucid Dreams », he doesn’t just drop a track, he opens a doorway into another dimension. Whether you’re dancing in a crowd or vibing solo with your AirPods, his music invites you to escape, reflect, and reconnect. One thing’s for sure: behind the rabbit mask is an artist who’s not just playing music, he’s playing with the very boundaries of reality.
