Interview

About João Eira AKA BioL!nk

I'm a 22-year-old music producer from a small village in the north of Portugal. I've been on Audiotool for 7 years now, and it's been a huge part of my creative journey. My favorite genres to produce and listen to are Drum & Bass, Dubstep, House, and Techno. Also, when it comes to pizza, nothing beats a classic Margherita for me.

Describe the style of music you produce

I produce a bit of everything, but my main focus is definitely on Drum & Bass. I love crafting energetic, dynamic tracks that blend fast-paced rhythms with deep basslines. Beyond DnB, I also enjoy exploring Dubstep, House, and Techno, bringing different influences into my sound to keep things fresh and versatile. My music is all about pushing boundaries while staying true to the raw energy that makes electronic music so exciting.

What is your musical background and when did you start making music?

I started producing music about 7 years ago, but I never really took it seriously until around 2 years ago when I began setting real goals for myself. Music has always been a big part of my life — my mom was a music teacher, my brother is a well-known guitarist, and there’s even a band in my family. But what really inspired me to make music was watching old DJ sets on YouTube from some of the greats. Seeing them perform sparked something in me and made me want to reach that level one day.

How long have you been using Audiotool, and how did you discover it?

I’ve been using Audiotool for about 7 years now. I actually discovered it by chance while I was looking for a way to produce music for free. It turned out to be the perfect platform for me to learn and experiment without any barriers.

What is your favorite Audiotool device and why?

If I had to pick just one, it would be the Pulverisateur. This device is a powerhouse for crafting deep basslines and intricate textures, making it indispensable for my Drum & Bass productions. Its extensive modulation capabilities and filter section allow for endless experimentation, and the vast library of community-created presets offers a wealth of inspiration. Whether I'm designing wobbles or evolving pads, the Pulverisateur consistently delivers the sonic depth and versatility I crave.

What is your favourite trick in AT/What technique do you always use?

One of my favorite tricks in Audiotool is using automation creatively to bring life and movement to my tracks. Whether it’s automating filter sweeps, volume changes, or effects parameters, it adds dynamics that keep the listener engaged. I also love layering different sounds to create unique textures. This approach helps me make my productions feel more alive and polished.

Have you ever had a writer's block? If so, how did you deal with it and what do you recommend to your colleagues

I struggle with writer’s block pretty often. It’s something I face almost every time I sit down to produce. When it hits, I try to step away from the music for a bit. My advice to other Audiotool users is to not stress too much about it, sometimes the best ideas come when you least expect them. Keep experimenting and stay patient. Creativity will come back.

What has helped you the most on Audiotool to improve and widen your musical horizon?

What’s helped me the most on Audiotool to improve and widen my musical horizon is the community and the ability to explore other producers projects. Being able to see how others build their tracks, experiment with different styles, and share tips has been invaluable. It’s inspiring to learn from such a diverse group of creators, and it constantly pushes me to try new things and refine my own sound.

What do you like most about Audiotool? Is there anything you would like to suggest?

What I like most about Audiotool is the way it brings together music creation and community. Being able to collaborate, share projects, and learn directly from other users in real time is something really special. It’s more than just a DAW, it’s a creative space where people grow together. I’d love to see more advanced sample manipulation tools in Audiotool, like pitch-shifting. Having those features directly in the main workspace would make it much easier to experiment and speed up the creative process.

Your message to the community:

To the whole Audiotool community, whether you’ve been here for a week or a decade — just a reminder that we’re all constantly learning. No matter how much experience you have, there’s always something new to try, something weird to experiment with, or something that just doesn’t work (until it suddenly does). Don’t be afraid to take risks or mess things up, that’s how some of the most creative ideas are born. Keep pushing your boundaries, keep supporting each other, and most of all, keep having fun. This place is what we make of it, and that’s what makes it so special.

Edition Audiotool: BioL!nk

Track #1:

M35 by Snio

Snio is without a doubt one of my biggest inspiration here, and this track is a perfect example of how insane his sound design is. The production is incredibly clean, and every element fits together flawlessly — everything just works.

Track #2:

VILE by leadenshrew

Leadenshrew has long been one of my biggest inspirations on this platform. His sound design and production techniques are truly outstanding. Exploring his projects back in the day taught me a great deal about structure, creativity, and attention to detail in music production.

Track #3:

Metropia by eratekk

Eratekk is probably my favorite drum and bass producer on this platform. This track gives off strong classic Buunshin vibes, and the overall production is nothing short of exceptional. Truly impressive skills across the board.

Track #4:

Jetdarc x Client - Covenant by Jetdarc and Client Alt

This track is a masterclass in sound design and mixing. Every element is meticulously crafted, from the crisp transients to the deep, textured bass, and the clarity in the mix is nothing short of ridiculous. It's one of those tracks where every sound has purpose and space. Truly next-level work.

Track #5:

Chapter 1: Red Skies by SIREN

SIREN and I were fairly close and even collaborated a few times back when he was active on this platform. I genuinely miss him. He was a constant source of inspiration and always pushed me to grow as a producer. This track perfectly captures the essence of his unique style and reminds me why his work resonated so deeply.

Track #6:

Starbound (Star VIP) by BioL!nk

Honestly, this is probably the track I had the most fun making. From start to finish, it just kind of flowed and I actually really liked how it turned out! Not gonna lie, I’m pretty proud of this one, haha.
