2017–present

[edit]

In March 2017, Conro released the single "Chardonnay" which features vocalist Karra.[19][20][21] He also remixed the Martin Garrix song "Scared to Be Lonely".[22]

On May 17, 2017, he released a single titled "Lay Low" on Monstercat.[23] The song features vocalist David Benjamin, who met Conro at the Amsterdam Dance Event in 2016.[24][25][26] Conro released a single titled "Close",[27][28] which would be included as the second single in his debut EP, in July 2017.[29][30][31]

On August 9, 2017, Conro released his debut EP titled Connecting the Dots, featuring 5 songs.[32][33][34][35] On August 25, 2017, Conro collaborated with fellow future bass producers Anevo and Grant to release a single titled "Without You" on the Canadian record label Monstercat.[36][37] The song, which features vocals by Victoria Zaro, was included on the Monstercat compilation album Monstercat Uncaged Vol. 2 alongside three songs from Conro's debut EP.[33][38]

On June 30, 2017, he released on Martin Garrix's label Stmpd Rcrds, the song titled "Like You Love Me" as a collaboration with producer Disero and vocalist Alice France.[39]

In the December 9 week for the Billboard Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, Conro's song "Close" peaked at 31st.[40]

On February 13, 2018, he released the first of 4 singles that would be included on his 2nd EP, "All Eyes On Me", titled Take Me There". This would be followed by the releases of "Me" in March, "Fired Up" in June and "Trippin" in August. The EP would come out in October 2018 through the Monstercat label.

Conro would return in May the following year with the release of "Remember You". "All I Want" would follow a month later in June before the release of his 3rd EP another month after, entitled "Thrill of It". He would release the single "What's Love" in September of the same year.

In November 2019, Conro posted on Instagram that he was in the process of recording vocals for a "new album". This would be officially announced alongside the release of its first single, "Without Your Love" on January 24, 2020. "Fighters" would be the 2nd single off the album and with its release, Conro announced the album would be titled "Level Days". In March, the then unreleased song "Therapy" would appear in the opening credits of the popular video game Rocket League of which Conro had been featured before. He had contributed the song "All Me" to the first original soundtrack for Rocket League back in 2017. "Therapy" would serve as the song that users would hear upon opening the game and acted as the official song for the 9th season of RLCS (Rocket League Champion Series) which is the professional esports series for Rocket League. Although the song was not a single and would only feature on the album, the usage of it in the game and in promotional material for RLCS only increased the hype for Conro's upcoming debut album. The final single for the album, "The Small Things", would release later in March. "Level Days" would release on May 22, 2020 and with it the official release of "Therapy" as well as 8 more songs. To close out 2020, Conro released the single "You Gotta Be" in collaboration with German singer LissA. It was a cover of Des'ree's song of the same name.

On January 8, 2021, Conro would release "luv(drunk)" which included lyrics that refer to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent quarantines that were imposed around the world to limit the spread of the disease. In May, Conro would collaborate with fellow DJ Dyro on the single "Memory Bank" which has accumulated over 14 million Spotify streams as of July 2025.

After not releasing music for 7 months, Conro would return with the single "find u" on January 7, 2022. He would follow this up with another single in February titled "feeling". In late March, "just wanna luv" would release with Conro himself stating it was his "favourite song". On May 20, 2022, Conro would release the single "back2u". In August, Conro would collaborate with American singer Aviella on the single "Way Back". Conro would release his final single of 2022 in October, with the track "scars".

On January 31, Conro would release the first of 3 singles that would be included on his 4th EP, "Melodramatic", titled "Every Little Thing". In late March, the 2nd single "Tell Me" would release. On May 4, 2023, the final single from the EP, titled "Just Like You" would come out and features Canadian rapper Boslen. In June, "Melodramatic" would release and included new songs including "Hypnotized", "My Girl" and "Backseat Lovers". On November 30, 2023, Conro would release "Wastin Time".

In December of 2024, Conro would release a VIP remix of "Therapy". He would also be featured on the song "Carry Me Through" off of the Shallou EP '24,summer'.

2025 would see a big stylistic switch for Conro as he would transition from electronic pop to chill house, starting with the release of "by myself", a 2 song EP. Along with this, he would also announce a new side project called 'oncor' which is where he planned to release his chill house music. In April, he would release "where did you go", a 3 song EP which would continue the 'oncor' project. On May 20, 2025, Conro would release the single, "Let Go". In June of 2025, Conro would release a 2 song EP titled "how can i be myself/closer".
