LVL1 AUDIO
Original Music for Creators.
LVL1 Audio is a newer music branch of LVL1 Studios, creating original music for streamers, YouTubers, gamers, video creators, and other independent creators looking for music they can build into their own content.
LVL1 STUDIOS MUSIC
LVL1 Studios Music is the original music and production side of LVL1 Studios. Its music catalog, artists, and associated projects remain part of LVL1 today, with connected artists and projects continuing to release music.
LVL1 Audio is a separate, newer branch focused on original music for gamers, livestreamers, videos, and creators. Both belong to LVL1 Studios, the creative umbrella connecting music, gaming, livestreaming, videos, and community.

THE MUSIC SIDE OF LVL1
Long before LVL1 Studios returned through gaming and livestreaming in 2026, music was one of the biggest parts of its identity.
Joseph Anthony Garcia spent years learning music production and gradually expanded into recording, engineering, arranging, artwork, video, distribution, and the many other pieces involved in independently creating and releasing music. What began as learning how to make music became a working independent recording and creative studio where artists and collaborators could create, record, and develop their projects.
Joseph's role changed depending on what each project needed—sometimes production, sometimes recording or engineering, and other times artwork, video, distribution, release preparation, or helping bring the different pieces together.
MUSIC BUILT INDEPENDENTLY
The original LVL1 Studios was not backed by a major label or large creative company. It was built independently, which meant learning by doing: understanding equipment, learning software, solving problems, and moving projects from an idea to something finished and ready to release.
Over time, LVL1 Studios became more than a name attached to creative projects. It became a functioning independent business and a place where real music was being created.
Eventually, life moved in another direction. Professional automotive work and motorsports became a larger part of Joseph's life, the original studio era came to an end, and LVL1 Studios became much quieter publicly. Music production slowed, but the experience never disappeared.
FROM THE STUDIO TO THE STREAM
When LVL1 Studios returned in 2026, the return began with gaming. Livestreaming became the foundation of the modern LVL1 Studios, bringing the brand back to one of the places where its creative journey had started years earlier.
As the new version of LVL1 Studios developed, music again became a natural part of the project. The question was what role it should have now.
Simply recreating the old recording studio did not make sense. LVL1 Studios had changed, and so had the creator world. Streaming had grown. YouTube had evolved. Short-form video had become a major creative platform. Independent creators were producing more content than ever—and creators needed music.
That created an opportunity to give years of music-production experience a new purpose. LVL1 Audio grew from that transition.
A NEW PURPOSE FOR THE MUSIC
Years ago, the music side of LVL1 Studios primarily revolved around artists and records. Today, LVL1 Audio expands that philosophy toward creators: original music that can become part of somebody else's creative process.
A streamer may need music while interacting with a community. A gaming creator may need something underneath a video. A YouTuber may need music for an intro, transition, or background. A short-form creator may need a soundtrack that adds energy without taking over the content.
The music should have its own identity. When used in content, it should also understand its role: support the moment, create atmosphere, add energy, fill space when needed, and let the creator remain the focus.
MUSIC FOR CREATORS
ORIGINAL MUSIC FOR CREATORS
LVL1 Audio is being developed as an original, creator-focused music catalog. Potential uses—subject at all times to the Creator Usage License Version 1.0—may include livestreams, gaming content, YouTube videos, short-form videos, intros and outros, background music, and other eligible creative content.
The long-term goal is a growing catalog with different moods, styles, and energy levels. Some tracks may work behind conversation. Others may fit gameplay, intros, montages, or transitions. The catalog can keep growing without losing its purpose.
EVERY CATALOG HAS A LEVEL ONE
Night Shift and the early modern LVL1 Audio releases mark the beginning of this new direction. They connect the experience of the original music-production years with the needs of today's creator world.
The music is not being created only for LVL1 Studios streams. LVL1 Audio is intended to become useful to other creators as well.
CREATED FOR MORE THAN LVL1
LVL1 Audio naturally has a home inside LVL1 Studios streams, videos, and projects, but the vision extends beyond one channel. It is being built for creators at different stages: someone starting a first stream, a YouTuber working on another upload, a gaming creator editing a video, or an independent creator experimenting with something new.
They may be at completely different stages. That fits the larger LVL1 philosophy: Everybody Starts at Level One.

THE NEXT TRACK
LVL1 Audio is still being built. The catalog will continue to grow, with new music and styles expanding the project over time.
Its foundation comes from years of experience that began long before the LVL1 Audio name existed. Gaming led to content creation. Content creation helped lead to music. Music helped build the original LVL1 Studios. Years later, gaming helped bring LVL1 Studios back.
Now music has returned with a new purpose: music for the people creating the next stream, the next video, the next channel, and the next project.
Because every new idea has a starting point.
Everybody Starts at Level One.
