Hello! I'm ZeroSweep and I'd like to say that I'm very happy to be able to fulfill my childhood dream of being an electronic music producer (even if it's for a very small audience and using amateur equipment). I thank newgrounds for the platform that makes it much easier to expose my creations! :)

I've been passionate about electronic music since I was around the age of four, in this epoch my DJ uncle lived at home and put his songs for us to listen to. Since then, I have been very interested in participating in this universe. Due to my financial conditions and limitations (pertaining to the context of my country and family), it was very difficult for the knowledge of DAWs to reach me.

I met my first DAW by chance, at a friend's house of mine. Because of a joke, we made our first song. Finally! At the age of 17, I posted my first full sound, "Aliens da Balada". After that, I looked up this same DAW for a mobile version (And yes, I never had a computer due to the limitations I mentioned in the second paragraph).

After creating some freaks and nonsensical stuff, I finally made a "long, harmonic" song, which today is called "Let the Games Begin." But I felt like I was missing something to make it something close to electronic music. So I decided to recreate the entire song using automations I had just learned for the first time! Then, after presenting the sound to my friend (the same one I quoted up there XD), he complimented me! Which encouraged me to create my first EP.

The EP "Every Start" is nothing more than my first steps. I was trying to make backing tracks for my minecraft PvP videos on youtube XD. These five songs have NOTHING complex, NOTHING music theory or sound design (with the exception of a few simple automations). It's all about doing "something" and saying "Oh, I liked that!"

after the EP, I kept making my songs in my spare time, after work, or when I wasn't studying to get into college. Drawing a lot of inspiration from Dimrain47 (I believe you know XD) and Buckethead (this one I already think you don't know XD). Finally, I started using arpeggios (And yes, I tried writing an electronic music solo on a mobile DAW).

Ladies and gentlemen! Plasmastorm was produced. Nothing impressive, but something new was born there. I felt like I had overcome some insecurities to finally develop my electronic solos! When I went to see it, I was already using the solos in a lot of songs, always trying to do something new and different, never sticking to any musical genre or anything like that, always trying to sound like myself.

The year goes on, and I'm trying to perfect myself with my creations (all within the limitations of a mobile DAW). Until I try something bolder. How about dubstep? So, after a lot of difficulty making a growl on the phone, I finished "Welcome to Nuclear Desert City."

I was very happy, but my happiness was short-lived, although the music reached a new level within my productions. At the time of export, irreversible bugs were caused. I exported several times, but nothing helped. There were a lot of audio tracks with a lot of automation in the project, my phone couldn't handle processing everything, so the song had to be posted (with the minimum of bugs, but the big problem is that they are still present in some parts of the song). I was limited, but that didn't stop me from continuing to produce, and, of course, I felt stuck with my poor equipment.

Today, after a lot of work, I was finally able to buy my computer. I'm saying goodbye to my mobile DAW with the song "Don't Arrest Me." Better things are coming now that I have good equipment! And yes, I'm still very much a beginner and have a lot to learn, and what's wrong with that? It was never something that kept me from passing on my melodies to the project and moving on :)

I guarantee that if all goes well, insane things are coming! My biggest idols are here on this platform, and I want to be like them. The geometry dash delights me with its community, which I've been a part of since I was 12 years old, and now, I stop being a level creator to become a music producer! I hope I can make you feel everything I felt during the productions.

And about this post, I don't know, I just felt comfortable sharing this story with you guys :)
