Le Voile started her musical journey 12 years ago on Audiotool as a teenager, where she first showed off her raw talent and natural feel for music. Back then, she went by the name 'zir0h,' experimenting with sounds and shaping her unique style. Over time, she’s grown into a confident, dynamic artist, creating bass-heavy, danceable EDM tracks that keep listeners hooked. Inspired by mainstream styles, she adds her own bold, edgy twist that sets her apart. Le Voile is such a great addition to the community, and we can’t wait to see what’s next!

Interview:

About Le Voile AKA Zir0h

I’m LeVoile, an artist and producer with over 10 years of experience creating music on Audiotool. Outside of music, I’m a fan of gaming, movies, and animation. My favorite dish is gyoza. Favorite childhood cartoon: Spongebob Squarepants (Seasons 1-6 only IYKYK) Current Favorite Adult cartoon: Smiling Friends, DanDaDan. One day I want to commission someone to make sick music videos for my music, like Ganja White night has.

Describe the style of music you produce

My favorite styles blend dark, gritty, and wet, drippy bass sounds, where bass-heavy textures meet emotional depth. While I haven’t fully explored gnarlier territory yet, it’s where I’m headed, and I’m always pushing my boundaries to get there. For me, music is about helping an idea become the best version of itself, and I love sharing that creative energy with others.

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

My musical interest started when I was small, lying on the living room floor with my dad as he played his big stereo loud on Friday nights. He’d talk to me about his love for music and musicians, sharing songs and stories that sparked my passion. My musical background started in 5th grade when I picked up the alto saxophone, an instrument I played all the way through high school and into my freshman year of college. During high school, I also began playing piano, and I took classes to learn to read and write music. While I had to sell my saxophone to help cover tuition costs in college, I continued playing piano, taking private lessons for about five years until my teacher passed away while I was away at school. Even now, I still play piano, which remains a grounding force in my life.

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

My love for audio and music production came later, with my introduction to EDM—specifically Americanized dubstep (Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites by Skrillex). I had never heard anything like it before, and began to listen to it often. In high school, my friends and I would go on night drives in his car (he had custom sound system with 2 subs), and we would surf Youtube for sick dubstep tracks. One day we found a track that had these gnarly growls and different jungle sounds that was really cool. I can't remember the name of it though. My friend read the description and the artist basically said that he made the song on Audiotool for free, and when I discovered I could create music like that, and even better, for free? As a broke high school kid, this was thrilling. The rest was history.

What is your favorite Audiotool device and why?

It's honestly a toss-up between the Quantum, and the Heisenberg. On one hand, a multiband compressor makes a huge difference in the final product and is super useful in a lot of ways I don't even completely understand yet. Plus, OTTs, of course! I know it's easy to pick a synth, but you literally have no sound without a VST, and the Heisenberg is so versatile! I constantly find parallels to some of even the most popular modern VST plug-ins.

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

Modulate a Sine wave with a Formant II wave. Normally, you'd want a Formant II filter type, but this works just as well in combination with some clever EQ automation. Those two were born to be together.

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

insert laughter Like every single day! But the true writer's block comes directly after I release something, mostly because I've been spending so much time focused on one thing. I like to Find a loop of some sort of busy noise, like a crowd talking, or people laughing. Or, pick a TV show, maybe your favorite one, and watch a few of your favorite episodes. Isolate a 30 second span or compile some snippets of lines from shows or movies that sounds the most fun to you. Put it all in a pile, and chop it up into 1/8 bar or 1/16th bar bits. Mix and match to taste and lay it over a beat. When I have literally no ideas, this is what I do for fun. If you can't find anything online, try going out into your own local community with any recording device and find your own! This at least gets me out of the house, which always stimulates my brain.

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

Live collabs are a really nice feature. I remember when that wasn't a feature, and collabs were a lot slower going! It was harder to leave notes, or actively communicate without using a third party app.

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

I still personally use third party apps for voice and video communication. It would be really nice to see Audiotool upgrade that DAW feature to be more on par with services like discord, or at least find a way to embed Discord feature into the audiotool DAW. Discord is also a big hub for gamers, and given Audiotool's recent community alignments/contests, could be a good business venture in future years. plus Audiotool literally has a discord page. It just seems like a natural thing to do, rather than managing it yourselves.

It would also be nice to see Audiotool offering contest prizes that would attract more serious artists, especially those outside of the platform that haven't heard about Audiotool. I know due to it's free availability, it's going to attract a demo of less experienced artists who want to make a name for themselves or get better. It would be impressive to see Audiotool devs to come up with a way to attract experienced artists to it's platform, like professionals and teachers. I feel like these are the people that will truly carry Audiotool further than a 14 year old without a credit card. Cash prizes would be nice, although I don't know the logistics on that stuff.

That's all literally off the top of my head, so take it with a grain of salt. I was a college dropout.

Your message to the community:

I strive to speak with positivity and hope, but I am not perfect, nor do I wish to pretend I am. There have been times when I’ve struggled to express myself with the grace and dignity I aspire to, but I’ve worked hard to grow. I believe I’ve made significant progress, though I still have days when I fall short. Growth isn’t a straight line—it’s a journey, and one that I am fully committed to.

One quote that has carried me through my darkest moments is this:

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We were all meant to shine as children do. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others."*

This is my favorite quote of all time, and I share it with everyone I know because I want them to feel loved and inspired too. It reminds me, even in my hardest moments, to embrace my light and let it shine for others to see.

To anyone starting out, feeling like no one believes in you or that you can’t succeed doing what you love: you can. Your talent is real, even if others don’t see it yet. Believe in yourself, even when it feels like no one else does. Don’t give up on your passions. And never, ever be afraid to be yourself. The world needs your light, and when you let it shine, you’ll inspire others to do the same. There’s a strength in authenticity and love that can change lives—not just your own, but everyone who gets to witness it.

Edition Audiotool: Le Voile AKA Zir0h

Track #1:

Explosion! VIP by RiMi [Hiatus] XculE

An absolute BANGER by a couple friends of mine. After I met these guys, I began feeling more excited and supported than I had in a very long time. Their support and talent in this work were very important and inspiring to me.

Track #2:

TRAUMA by JayFK

A fine example of what community can do! I remember chatting with JayFK about my newfound love for Rezz after seeing her and hearing her music live for the first time and my very first EDM festival. I shared my excitement with him, and I think it rubbed off a little because shortly thereafter he dropped this monster hit.

Track #3:

Zero Light by Grawlix

This mean bugger blew my mind, and when I first heard it, I was once again convinced that there was real dubstep potential hidden deep in the valleys of Audiotool DAW

[[EMBED:https://www.audiotool.com/track/f72sucv3ljqj]]

Track #4:

Raspberries and Peaches by EscapingReality

A beautiful, fun, melodic little song. It takes me back to the earlier days of producing on Audiotool, and reminds me that good music doesn't need to be all that fancy or complicated. It just needs to have soul

[[EMBED:https://www.audiotool.com/track/6lxl7otw/]]

Track #5:

Simplistic| by CeRiXyn

This is by far my favorite track on Audiotool of all time, and that's really saying something because this platform has so much good music. I feel like this track just describes me as a person, and it makes my heart swell and my foot tap every time I hear it <3
