UPDATED POST

As you're all probably aware by now, I love to make music :)

I was first inspired by Total Drivin's soundtrack when we got a PlayStation. I used to listen to it all the time on my CD player, and still love it now.
This led to a passion for electronic music, and got into bands/artists such as Kraftwerk, FSOL and CoLD SToRAGE.

In 2010 my dad purchased an iMac (he makes/records music too), where he also purchased programs such as Reason and Logic.

Suddenly I'm in high school (2011), where music was the school's specialty. With my previous knowledge of music and piano, I definitely enjoyed these classes.
Our teacher gave us a composition assignment, which was when I made my first proper song (Scratched Disc). It was at this point I realised that I could make music too.

2013 was the year things really started moving. I released my first album (hence the thread title), worked with the school to make Wayfaring Stranger covers (which were performed), and also became a finalist in Tropscore 2013 :)

Fast forward to now, I'm studying sound production at TAFE, which will take me to a course in Uni that focuses on sound in media (including video games).

Pretty much all of my music up to 2014 is available on Bandcamp, including a remastered version of the first album: https://theconzio.bandcamp.com/
Hope you enjoy :D

[TheConzio]

[DDD113]

Cool stuff! What do you use to create it?

[stin]

Just keep going. :)

stevie:)

[TheConzio]

@DDD various programs :)
@stin thank you!

[DDD113]

Ooh, variety is the spice of life! :D

Keep up the good work, man! :)

Quick sidebar @theconzio: Have you had the opportunity to use an Ableton Synth? I've got the latest FL Studio, Absynth, and a few midi controller programs. I've been trying to use a Protracks mixer, and I was wondering if there are any limitations with the Ableton with that rig. Using a mouse just doesn't cut it.

Any thoughts? I'm gonna try to start doing some mashups using my own original mixes.

Good work btw too ^_^

[TheConzio]

Sorry mate, haven't used Ableton before, so I'm not sure what the limitations would be. I use mainly Reason 3 and 5, Cubase 4, and Logic Pro X.

[True Endurance]

I'll be getting this as soon as it's on iTunes.

[Ace3000]

I'd better get my iTunes credit topped off, I am so getting this! Your music is awesome, Conzio!

[TheConzio]

Thank you guys! I hope you'll enjoy it.

[TheConzio]

UltraLight will be quite different (in a good way) on the album. I will update the YouTube version when the album has been released.

[Ace3000]

Well, I see the album is now on eMusic, whatever the hell that is, congratulations! Now for iTunes! :D

[TheConzio]

Yep, I don't remember that being part of the application but oh well, it's there :P Hopefully it will be on iTunes soon enough.

I just noticed you can't buy the album from eMusic if you're from Australia, haha the irony :lol

[Ace3000]

That would suck if I did not use iTunes to buy my digital music, but since I do, that doesn't bother/affect me. :D

[TheConzio]

I haven't created a song in a while, so I made a new one!

It's more of a club/dance genre (like The Main Event), rather than my usual 90's style electronica.

Hope you'll enjoy it!

[Ace3000]

Once again, you have done an amazing job, keep it up!

[TheConzio]

Hmm, maybe YouTube doesn't like my music? :P

8491

[Knux_Chaotix]

LOL What?? No way!!! What happened there??

[TheConzio]

They think that the song was made by someone else, so they blocked it worldwide.

As soon as the album comes out, I can prove them wrong :)

[Greevb]

Man I look forward to owning of copy of this, always loved your tunes playing wiPeout.

[TheConzio]

A MASSIVE THANKS to everyone who has supported me and my music. I hope you enjoy the album! Now available on iTunes! (check front page)

[TheConzio]

UPDATE (please refer to OP)

A remastered version of my first album, Electric Fire and an EP of Wayfaring Stranger is now all available on Bandcamp.
Hope you enjoy :)

[Ace3000]

MAAAAAD!

Would there be another album coming soon? It's been a while since your last one.

[stin]

as you aware, l have been listening all your music but you did actually make excellent music! if you must know, l do listen while I am in my bath to relax especially "rain" ;)
if you are working on your new songs? please keep doing it! ;)

stevie :)

[TheConzio]

@Ace Maybe, but I have to get some life stuff in order first :) (I'm thinking maybe a physical album, but money is an issue at the moment)

@stin Haha yes, blue rain is intended for relaxation! I'm glad that you're enjoying the music :)
As for new songs, I have a few ideas in the clouds.. they'll come in time :)

[TheConzio]
