Dig a Pit is a minimalist autobiographical studio album with sparse electronic music and reflective lyrics. The album explores experience of intimate partner violence, focusing on the psychologically damaging impact of narcissistic abuse, an elusive form of emotional abuse rooted in manipulation, control, and well-concealed cruelty and humiliation. Each song examines different stages of recovery from processing feelings of vengeance, confusion, misguided desire for the abuser, to the practice of accepting and healing. The tracks present an eclectic journey through multiple genres. Single "Betrayal Internalized" showcases traces of bedroom pop and ambient electronic music. While "Exorcism" includes elements of trap and horror film soundtrack music. Wizard Apprentice is an independent music producer, video artist, and live performer. As a highly-sensitive introvert, her multimedia projects are strategies for energetically managing an overwhelming world. Her music is a combination of lyrical precision, minimalistic composition, and technically amateurish charm.

Press Quotes
Their latest record, I Am Invisible (2018) on Ratskin, was really great, and their forthcoming, Dig A Pit, is even better.
—Ben Levinson, Tiny Mix Tapes
'On the emotionally immediate, stylistically daring Dig A Pit, Carter asks us to see from multiple perspectives--not just the musician and her avatar, but to turn inward, as she has, as we reflect on and seek healing ourselves.'
—Bandcamp Daily
'The music of Wizard Apprentice is an exercise in vulnerability and trusting oneself.'
—East Bay Express
'Wizard Apprentice is a genre-bending artist, writing personal electronic music that still keeps the audience at an arm's length.'
—The Bay Bridged
