Devon Hendryx (previously stylized as DéVon Hendryx) is the previous music alias of musician JPEGMAFIA, taking inspiration from the cloud rap and vaporwave scenes. Over the years, Devon has released projects on his Bandcamp page like THE GHOST~POP TAPE and DREAMCAST SUMMER SONGS. After THE GHOST~POP TAPE, Devon threatened suicide and went off the radar of his small fanbase. 2 years later, he started over as JPEGMAFIA, with the communist slow jams mixtape.
In 2022, an anonymous user made an archive page with Devon Hendryx's songs, which weren't on streaming services at the time. JPEGMAFIA himself mentioned on Twitter at the time of the archive page going public that he planned to remaster the albums that he released under this alias and release them on streaming services officially, as of 2024, he has only remastered his 2013 album THE GHOST~POP TAPE and has stated that he wants to move away from his older music.
In 2023, he claimed the archive page for himself and uploaded a remastered version of THE GHOST~POP TAPE along with the original versions of JOECHILLWORLD and DREAMCAST SUMMER SONGS. In 2024, 2 unofficial uploads were made to the page, one of which was an earlier version of JOECHILLWORLD which led to JOECHILLWORLD's removal from streaming for a while, but it seemingly has returned for now. Devon Hendryx's music is available officially on Bandcamp.
