Madeon Celebrates 10 Years Since Uploading First Original
Madeon celebrates a milestone today as he marks 10 years since he uploaded his very first original. After over a decade of making music, the producer has a lot behind him to be proud of and a bright future ahead. Tracing back his early work on SoundCloud, we’ve rediscovered “For You,” a funky, fresh production for its time with playful progression and a four on the floor groove. The song amassed 1.08 million plays on the platform, but more importantly, the track put Madeon on his creative path.
He was making music long before he uploaded “For You,” however. “The Time Has Come” was technically the first track a young Madeon uploaded onto MySpace back in 2016 — but the tweet below is going by the 2010 timeline.
It has been 10 Years today since I uploaded the first original Madeon song 💫

Many incredible highlights of course but the main thing i’ll say is that I REALLY WANTED this career. What I do now is exactly what I’ve been dreaming of doing since I started making music at 10.

Even better than a career though is feeling good about a skill you worked hard to develop.
I really wanted to become pretty good at producing music, that was a very important goal.— Madeon (@madeon) May 25, 2020
