OLIVIA MCAETHER · SONGS, NOTES AND A FEW THEORIESI get it.
OLIVIA McAETHERI get it.
Unfortunately.
HEY, I’m Olivia. The friend who tells you not to reply, then asks what he said. I sing, take notes and occasionally follow my own advice. By accident.
WAIT, YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS.
“No problem.” I’ve already told three people.I typed “lol”. I meant “are you kidding me?”I saw the price. Suddenly, I hated the dress.Super comfy shoes. If I stay seated.I’ve done my makeup. Now I need an occasion.“Whatever you want.” Not that.He said I talk too much. I explained why he was wrong.“Just a quick photo.” We ran out of daylight.I texted “don’t worry”. Now we’re both worried.My “okay” needs subtitles.
01 / THE GROUP CHAT, ON PAPERRaga,
A BOOK BY OLIVIA MCAETHER · IN ITALIAN
Raga,
ho una
teoria.
A BOOK BY OLIVIA MCAETHER · IN ITALIANUnsolicited notes on men, friends and other questionable decisions.
This book is for you if you’ve ever said “I’m not interested anymore” before asking “who’s that b***h liking his posts?”. If you’ve learned to recognise red flags, set boundaries and protect your energy, but then he texts “HEY, how are you?” at 11:47 p.m. and the group chat becomes a commission of inquiry.
Between men who “don’t like labels”, friends with excellent advice and questionable decisions, Raga, ho una teoria captures the absurdity of knowing everything and doing the opposite anyway. Screenshots, theories and circumstantial evidence: to keep you company while you type, delete, rewrite and eventually send the very first thing you wrote. The book is in Italian.
“I won’t teach you to become the best version of yourself.
Personally, I find managing the current one demanding enough.”
Coming soon. Available to buy on Amazon soon.

02 / THIS IS HOW I WORKMe,
Me,
basically.
I’m the friend who was supposed to meet you for coffee and is still there three hours later, phone on the table, reconstructing the entire situation. The one who tells you not to reply, then leans closer to the screen because she needs to read it properly. I have a song for certain days, a theory for almost everything and a habit of saying “one last thing” at least four times.
I like friends who understand a seven-second voice note, plans that change the moment you get dressed and that line that makes you laugh because it sounds a little too familiar. Here you’ll find my music and the notes that became Raga, ho una teoria. Come for a chorus and stay because, unfortunately, you’ve said “this time it’s different” too.
“I have an opinion.
Give me two minutes and I’ll have another.”OLIVIA MCAETHER
03 / PUT THIS ONE ONMain character.
Main character.
Even at Trader Joe’s.
Electronic pop, house and a healthy tendency to turn a perfectly ordinary day into a music video.
I sing electronic pop and house and provide the soundtrack for your slightly over-cinematic moments. I turn mixed signals, the red flags we agreed to ignore and thoughts that seem brilliant at 2 a.m. into music. Add bass, irony and choruses you can sing at full volume: you might recognise yourself in a line, or feel like dancing it out. Quite often, both happen at once.
My music is for picking up milk at Trader Joe’s while your headphones make you the main character. For singing in the shower with an intensity your body wash was never prepared to handle. For getting on the treadmill, putting a fan in front of you and feeling like Beyoncé: four miles an hour, a world tour in your head. And for walking home with your hood up, finding the right chorus for the closing credits. The cart still squeaks and the group chat is still complicated, but at least we’ve sorted the soundtrack.

I had a sentence. Then you looked at me. Now I’m replaying your line and trying to remember how hands work.
