About The Forge
The Album
12 tracks of conscious reggae-jazz-classical fusion exploring Austrian economics, Bitcoin philosophy, and the builder's mindset. For everyone tired of asking permission. Sound money meets sound music.
This debut album from EasyWiz represents a unique fusion of musical traditions—reggae's revolutionary consciousness, jazz's harmonic sophistication, and classical music's emotional depth—all in service of ideas that matter.
Forge your Soul. Build your World
About EasyWiz
EasyWiz is a fantasy character—a builder-philosopher-musician created to explore Austrian economics, Bitcoin philosophy, and sovereignty through music. Think of him as the grandson of a blacksmith, son of a classical pianist, and nephew of a reggae producer.
Post-2008 awakening to monetary reality led to this unique voice: direct and honest, not academic or preachy. A builder talking to other builders about competence, sound money, and sovereignty.
"The character is fantasy. The philosophy is lived. The music is honest."
