History
edu was first introduced to by the public on the 17th of October, 2011, through his Facebook page.[2]
His first set of demos was initially released on cassette tape so as to not have it be circulated in a disposable format; the first batch was mailed out in March 2012. On December 17th 2012, Andrew decided to make the whole album available digitally through his Bandcamp page, however, as of 2019, the original version of Sketches is 'Sold Out' and no longer available for purchase.[3]
Not much came about after the release of sketches, other than a single interview edu did, confirming that a second album was (kind of) a work in progress. He referred to the (currently untitled) album as much more "baroque" than sketches. No further information has surfaced since except for a single track that came from a confusing origin: a random russian music website.[citation needed]
Sketches 3d
In 2019, edu announced a re-release for his debut album, on both vinyl and streaming services.
