About

Design & Development & Ideas.

Astereo is the portfolio of Andrew Clemente, a 20 year old college student, music fan, and freelance designer–developer from Rhode Island along the east coast of the United States.

Introductions can be boring, so let me take a second to sum up the past 8 years as quickly as possible. I put together my first ever site when I was twelve for my little league team. A year later I was behind a music-inspired website project called Soundvolume which was eventually bought out by Unborn Media Inc. (owners of Purevolume, Virb, etc) for $250 simply to get this annoying thirteen year old off their back.

Throughout the next few years I continued to experiment with Photoshop, html, css, and php and eventually began teaching myself the basics of code. In January 2005 I finally decided it would make the most sense to operate under one universal name, and with that Astereo was born. In 2006 I launched a online design resource called Devlounge which grew quickly and helped make a name for myself throughout the design and tech community. In 2008 I pioneered the premium WordPress theme ecommerce system Market Theme, which saw over 300 copies sold in just under 6 months. In September 2008 I sold off the project to focus on college.
