Welcome to Shane Watson Music
Rage, rhythm, resilience—genre-breaking emotional fire.
An Intro
I started writing music in my young 20s using FastTracker 2 and borrowed samples. After a few years of that, I stopped writing... until now.
Equipped with Suno.AI and other tools, I've been writing music that I never imagined could come to life when I was younger. My hope is to become a successful writer.
I release music under different band names to partition out what genres folks want to listen to. I have three:
- Shane Watson
- ShadowHawkX
- NightHawkX


Shane Watson
Ever had a worm in your brain, a dog in your heart, or a thunderbolt meet-cute you still can't explain? Shane Watson spins all that into alt-infused pop punk and pop rock tracks that are equal parts clever, chaotic, and tender. Whether you’re unraveling reality in Captain Brainworm, wagging your whole soul to In Dog We Trust, or reliving the moment you knew in Your Hand In Mine, these songs don’t just play—they wink, nudge, and hug you on the way out.
ShadowHawkX
If your heart beats in BPM and your soul syncs with synths, ShadowHawkX is your lift-off. With tracks like Lift Your Head High and Equilibrium, Shane Watson crafts melodic EDM and trance that hits the sweet spot between skyward energy and emotional resonance. This is music for the come-up, the cool-down, and every moment you choose light over shadow. Uplifting, pulsing, and ready to move you—literally.


NightHawkX
NightHawkX is raw emotion wrapped in distortion—metalcore with a pulse and a purpose. With Butterfly, Shane dives into the beautiful wreckage of transformation, while Take All of Me throws open the gates to vulnerability, rage, and release. It’s heavy, it’s honest, and it doesn’t flinch. For those who feel too much and scream it anyway, this is catharsis with teeth.
