**IrieArtz** is a graphic designer, visual artist, and electronic music producer from New Jersey. He has been making digital art since 2017, and music since around 2020. He is known for his chiptune influenced, "bitcrushed" sound -- along with his interest in creating music of other genres such as jersey club, baile, techno, and melodic riddim.

## Double Digits

He just hit double digits when he got into making digital artwork -- specifically "YouTube intros." He made a Panzoid account on May 18, 2017. Almost every day, he'd be at his computer trying to make as many of his creations as he could. As he improved and amassed a small audience, he made some friends on the site, specifically: HolyFX and LazyFX.

IrieArtz would grow to be very intertwined and invested to the Panzoid community, having a total of thousands of creations and hundreds and thousands of views to boot. On his thirteenth birthday, he made a Youtube channel to post his intros online. He had grew his audience even more and made connections within the Youtube/Discord communities like SkooArtz and sorrai.

## Discovery

During his time making intros, IrieArtz grew an interest into making music. While he would make intros, he'd play around on Chrome Music Lab and then Music Maker JAM, in which his rapid workflow with music would match that of his visual 3D art. Around 2020, he decided he wanted to start making music from scratch instead of using loops on Music Maker JAM. IrieArtz abandoned his Music Maker JAM and Loudly accounts and started using Soundtrap. He made his first EP around that same month.

Influenced by dubstep and chiptune, IrieArtz also decided to go into more EDM centered communities like Eliminate, Bandlez, and his former friends' music collectives. He met a lot of people in those servers and would offer to make art as to change his art medium from intros to cover art and teaser trailers. His friends from the intro-maker community supported his idea of making music. One day, IrieArtz took a hiatus from the internet and came back as a music producer and visual artist. He privated all his intros on YouTube, and that channel was left dormant for over a year.

## The Start

IrieArtz decided to focus much of his time making art and them music on the side, trying to get good enough but also aiming for enjoyment and having fun. He befriended producers like himself, such as: ESKVY, (un)familiar, and STYKS (before he branded from YGGDRASIL). STYKS' offer to join their label to make art helped him broaden his circle and led to an amicable friendship between the two. Upon IrieArtz's now removed "Adira EP," the song "Echis (ft. Feez)" peaked STYKS' interest and decided to contribute to the song immensely, creating what is now "Echis II." The now established STYKS and IrieArtz collab was signed by Broken Vault Records and fueled IrieArtz's drive to get better at music and take it a bit more seriously.

## Aftermath

Since then, IrieArtz has still managed to built a group of people who support his music with no sign of slowing down. Infamous for his fast workflow, people appreciate him for working within his limitation to create something of character and quality. He released over 50 songs just in 2022 and has collaborated with many underground artists like himself. He strives to have fun with music and help his friends get recognized. Gaining support from Zef Parisoto, STAYNS, and Nawtystep, IrieArtz continues to reach personal milestones and keep at his craft. There is simply no telling what cool things he'll do in the future.
