Early days
[edit]Apeiruss was formed back in 2013 by Saami, Shafi & Andy. Saami & Shafi were brothers and they have been practicing music production from a very early stage. They taught themselves the basic music production skills using FL Studio in their bedroom. Saami & Andy were college friends since 2010. Andy also showed interest in music production ever since so he also joined the clan. After many musical sessions they came to form Apeiruss as a trio back in 2013. At the beginning they were making music using their computers only.
Working in Bangladesh
[edit]After 'Bijoyer Shopno' Apeiruss started their journey in the local music industry. They would later work with many prominent Bangladeshi artists as music composer and producer. Some of their notable Bangladeshi songs are 'Cholona Harai' with Tahsan, 'Leelabali' with Mala & Uptown lokolz, 'Shudhu Amar' with SHUNNO, 'Obosheshe' featuring Naumi, 'Ami Tumi' featuring Elita Karim, Hotaath with Balam etc.

Back in 2015 Apeiruss's then manager Tanzil Rahman sent some of their demos to various artists, managers and labels. However one day a Bollywood playback singer Armaan Malik checked out their music and showed interest to work with them. Then he introduced Apeiruss with his brother Amaal Mallik. Amaal offered Apeiruss to produce a track he was composing for Atif Aslam. Apeiruss worked on that track as an additional programmer. The song became a massive hit. Through this song they started their Bollywood journey. They would later produce more songs of Amaal Mallik including 'Sau Aasman', 'Buddhu Sa Mann' etc. Amaal introduced Apeiruss with Arko Pravo Mukherjee with whom they did couple more songs. In 2017 Apeiruss asked Armaan Malik to sing a Bengali Song. Together they made 'Tor Karone' which was sung by Armaan Malik and composed by Apeiruss. It was the first Bangladeshi song for Armaan Malik. In 2019 Apeiruss composed 'Ishqam' with Bollywood playback singer Mika Singh and Ali Quli Mirza. The song was released from Navrattan Music in October 2019. "Ishqam became one of their massive hits till date generating views more than 230 million worldwide.
