The History of My Music
The Beginning
In 2013, I started to listen to more electronic music and was really into dubstep and drum and bass. I dreamed of making my own music. In 2014 I’d get my chance to. I discovered the app “Music Maker Jam” which is a simple music making software that allows you to download sample packs and make music using pre-made samples. I began creating, among my first releases were 2 called “The Closer We Come The More The Pressure Rises” and “Blue Water, Orange Lava”. Which were both interesting dubstep releases by me. My releases continued and I also expanded my reach to creating some drum and bass songs. I released a few random songs like “changing directions”. An interesting song for a project I was working on back in 2014, now long abandoned, and a song called distance with a GoAnimate (Now “Vyond”) video to go along with it. (Don’t judge me, I was younger at the time)
After this I continued to make music and upload it to my primary account named at the time “Elimrtuco333”. I then considered branching off to another YouTube channel for music specifically. I was really into Pokémon at the time so I decided on the name “PlasmaUmbreon”
"PlasmaUmbreon"
The start of this channel marked my first serious step into making music. My first release on this channel was called “Slowly But Surely” and was more of me playing around with the beat making tools of the FL Studio demo. At this time I had no idea of musical scales and how to make music from scratch, this being said I reverted to making music with Music Maker Jam. In 2016, being a bit more experienced in making music, I decided to stop making only single tracks and move into my first album. I called it Digital Fire.
"Digital Fire"
In my opinion, calling Digital Fire an album is only half of the story. I’d call Digital Fire more of a generation of my music, The first 2 tracks called “Dark Times” and “Dark Blue Skies” followed a similar format to my other music. An interesting kind of Drum and Bass amalgamation with different genres made in Music Maker Jam. But with the help of some friends I met during the two years of on and off work on the album, I was beginning to learn how to make some music from scratch on my own in FL Studio. “Killer Instincts” and “Night Crawler” were two interesting tracks made dominantly with arpeggiators to make it easier for me to play things that sounded good with my more limited knowledge of playing complete sequenced notes (Now you know my secrets! Dang, I’ve been figured out). Jokes aside, the track “Freedom” was a song I made with no arpeggiators and was my first try at an Ambient track. “Cloudy Future” was an electronic tune I made, also with no arpeggiators. And in both “Final Nod” and “Converging Pathways” I revisit my roots and make both of these songs in Music Maker Jam. This is the history of my music and not the history of “Digital Fire” so lets actually discuss why this is all relevant. First, I think I should go over why a 12 track album took 2 years to make. In 2016 I released “Dark Times” and then forgot about my music for a while, I picked it back up with “Dark Blue Skies” in April 2017 and then forgot about it again after October 2017. In June 2018 I pick it up again and my activity stays relatively consistent after that point. Now it’s time I discuss the true relevance of Digital Fire. When I started the album, I was continuing based off of my past music experience and continuing to make music with Music Maker Jam, but then I got better at doing music from scratch and moved into FL Studio. Basically I started off with continuing to make simple songs out of samples through Music Maker Jam but I started to truly make more complex and interesting songs from scratch in FL Studio. This transformed my music, gave my music it’s unique style and made my music into what it is today. Digital Fire in my eyes was not an album, but a generation that shifted from the stuff that I was creating before to the music I create today. Digital Fire marked a change and a generation in my music making career and truly made my music into what it is now.
XXXServe
XXXServe is my new rapping name. I’m mainly an instrumental electronic music producer, but I had an interest in doing at least some rap in my lifetime. I made my rapper name as a take off on the name XXXTentacion. I made my rapper name based off of the name of an Apple server computer series known as the “Xserve“. The first song I made was “Girls My Age” which is a song all about the tension between other people and I and why I have never been in a relationship and what I personally think of girls my age. Though the lyrics and my singing ability may not be the best or the most unique, the unique instrumental backing made this song very interesting. I later followed up this song with “Not Interested” following a very similar course of talking about relationship tension with others with a slightly different perspective on the overall issue. I think this song had too long of a running time, but other than that it was an okay song. During the time it took to produce this song I also made the title of my first XXXServe album, “Booting”. I expect to continue making rap songs here and there from now on.
Algorhythm
Algorhythm is my second album. I started work on it in October 2018 and finished it in June 2019. This album was an amazing experience for me. I totally changed up my style and started to take my music a bit more seriously. I learned a lot about the various functions of FL Studio and 3rd parts VSTs. I started to make sure things were more on beat and took longer times to actually finish my songs. I think I should take the time to discuss why I created Algorhythm and what I had in mind while I was creating it. I actually took a very narrative instrumental approach to this album. The whole idea of the “Algorhythm” is something that controls everyone and goes on and on. This album is all about breaking free from the Algorhythm. I know, because the album is entirely instrumental, people aren’t all going to get the same message, but this was the idea I had in mind while I was making the album. So with this idea, I wanted to make more dark and deep songs with a twist of rising up against something. I feel a lot of songs achieved this throughout the album. Because of the idea of the album I decided to title the final track “Fatal Error” as a message that the “Algorhythm” had been destroyed and everyone was free. I feel that this emotional approach to the instrumental pieces really made them have a truly interesting sound and emotion and I feel that the darker tone and deep meaningful tracks made this album truly shine against Digital Fire and Candy Coded Christmas. I feel Algorhythm is another revolution in my music production and I hope to make more tracks that are of the same great quality, along with starting some more lyrical pieces. All in all, Algorhythm was quite an experience to produce and I feel to some that it’s quite an experience to listen to. Algorhythm was an interesting album, that’s for sure.
Present Day
Continuing to work with my knowledge, I create music today that is unique and has taken on a different style then what it used to be. I will continue to make music, and as I do so, the history of my music will continue to be written and some of the stuff I will do I’m sure in time will make it here someday.
The History of My YouTube Content
The Beginning: "mrtuco333"
My first YouTube channel was called “mrtuco333” this is where my young self would post videos, usually of either screen recordings of Roblox, photo collages, and random webcam videos. The photo collages and webcam videos usually included photos or videos of me or my cats. Due to nothing interesting happening in the videos, the lack of editing, boring long takes, and the fact I just kept the default file names as the video names meant that none of the videos on my channel were ever found by anyone to be honest.
Elimrtuco333
Instead of continuing with my “mrtuco333” YouTube account. I decided to get a fresh start. So, I deleted the mrtuco333 account completely (Fun fact: nearly every video on my first channel no longer exists anywhere in my files!). Continuing on, I started making Roblox content since I was playing it a lot and really enjoying it. The first video I uploaded to my elimrtuco333 (at least, by my records that still exist) was a video called “the best game in roblox ad.avi”. I made this video to showcase this random place I made in roblox studio. This video was a video that was way too long where I talked with the preset chat (yes, at this time I couldn’t use free chat) saying random things. My content would continue to change, I made videos of me trying to record the Easter bunny and some more random videos with my webcam. I eventually began to make GoAnimate “grounded” videos and a few more unique GoAnimate videos too. This lead into me beginning to make music the same year (2013). I then tried doing vlog content for a short time, which didin’t really go anywhere. I continued to make a video talking about myself at the time, let’s plays of some different video games, and finally beginning in 2015, GoPro content. All of these videos were a bit cringy.
Fenix Azin
In 2016, I changed my name to “Fenix Azin” because, at the time I was interested in starting a gaming group called “Fenix Clan”. During this time I began making mostly Counter-Strike Global Offensive content. But with my low skill at the game, problems in my personal life and loss of interest, I decided to go on a similar path but change my name to “FenX Azin”
FenX Azin
Still in 2016, I changed my name to FenX Azin. During this time, I tired to continue my CS:GO content all throughout the rest of 2016 and 2017. I also tired to continue with the now “FenX” gaming group by opening a discord which was no one ever joined. By December that year, I wanted to make more unique content without interfering with my main YouTube so I created an alternate channel.
RAIACAD0564
Near December of 2017 I decided to take one of my old unused channels, rename it, and begin using it as an alternate channel (as to why the creation date of the channel was in 2015) The name RAIACAD0564 is actually a word scramble of “ARCADIA5064”. On this YouTube channel, I created mostly memes and shitposts. The first meme I made was “Ajit Pai the FCC Guy”. The video is a parody of “Bill Nye the Science Guy” with the lyrics and video changed. I made this because of course, the repeal of net neutrality was a popular meme at the time. On this channel I have continued to make shitposts like ear rape, paraody songs, and memes. The biggest of these was the “Hit or Miss Shut The F*** Up You C***” meme I made, which at this time holds 4.7K views.
FenX Azin: The middle to the final days.
As I continued creating CS:GO and gaming content, but I began to get really bored of it and this was much past the time gaming videos boomed on YouTube. I decided to take my content in a more unique path. I announced this idea in an update video I created and uploaded in July 2018. In early 2019 I uploaded a few memes, but late in 2019 I felt like finally resigning my FenX Azin channel. All of the changes from the content I produced in 2012, to the CS:GO content I made in 2016. The single channel has experienced so many changes and carrying my old audience which mostly subscribed during the 2012-2015 era makes it very hard to succeed with yet another change to my channel. I felt like I needed yet another fresh start in my YouTube carrer. I needed to come up with something, and surprisingly the idea for what I could do came very quickly.
FenX Azin -> RAIACAD0564
Due to the recent potential for success and not much over 2 year lifespan, and small flexible audience. I felt making RAIACAD0564 my primary account would be the best path. I’ve left the old FenX Azin up on YouTube and I don’t feel that I will ever fully delete it, but I expect it will see long time inactivity due to my decision to switch to the RAIACAD0564 account. Other than that, all of my other social medias have simply experienced a name change and any of the “FenX Azin Music” accounts will not be affected whatsoever. I still release memes, song parodies and occasional random videos, but I have some ideas for some new, unique and different content. This is where we stand now.
