Short after the band formed, they locked themselves in a studio at Tivoli Productions in Ljubljana together with producer Dejan Radičevič and set to work, trying to distil the vigour and energy of their live act into a digital format. In April 2004 CPZ, in co-operation with Nika Records, published the band's first album, entitled Numedia. It was well received by the Slovene audience; still, the turning point in naio ssaion's music career was an international band competition held at the Club Orpheum in Austria. They beat over 70 other bands to win the Best Newcomer 2004 award, which led to them playing a concert with superstars P!nk in Piberstein, Austria.
In 2005 they supported Lenny Kravitz in Ljubljana and later the same year also signed a contract with the Austrian label Napalm Records. They released a record called Out Loud, which partly builds on songs from the previous album, now sung in English, but has also got some new material.
In their career so far, they also collaborated with Rožmarinke, Big Foot Mama and (besides the aforementioned Lenny Kravitz and P!nk) played alongside Apocalyptica, Ill Nino and In Extremo. Their song The Mirror was featured on a compilation released by the Metal Hammer magazine. Since 2006, they had a few years pause and only started playing live again in 2011, while the new album is scheduled for 2012.
