The First Conception is (in this case) the name of a music project co-founded by Thomas Conway (acoustic guitar) and Rogerio Ferreira (drums, percussion and glockenspiel) who play free style instrumental music mostly but also Early Music, European Folk, Easy Listening, World Music, as well as making jazz, blues and traditional Irish and English Folk arrangements.
Jaki Alden (flute, mandolin, clarinet, violin, and woodwind) recorded the first two albums with the project and joins in from time to time for gigs. Other musicians are invited when necessary.

This music project’s instrumental soundscapes create a symbiotic relationship of dreamy labyrinthine sounds and a sparse rendering of musical arrangements which aim to take their listeners on imaginary musical trips.

The project have developed a unique style comprising a blend of their influences.

"We try to create a certain atmosphere within each piece of music we play." - Rogerio.

"We also believe in keeping it sparse." - Tom.

"There's a mystical journey one goes on when listening to your music. It sounds very spiritual and mysterious." - Judy, a fan.

"Have you contacted the BBC? Your music's good for television documentaries." - Mark, a friend.
