In August 2011, The Algorithm released his compilation called "Method_" on which the songs of two previous demos were compiled which were also for free download.

An appearance followed in October 2011 at the Euroblast Festival in Cologne, where The Algorithm featured alongside bands such as Textures, TesseracT and Vildhjarta.

A month later Mike Malyan, drummer for the band Monuments, uploaded a drum cover of the song "Isometry" on YouTube.

After seeing this, Gallego was convinced that it would be possible to play his songs on a real drum set and Malyan was presented as an accompaniment during live performances.

"Before he put his Isometry drum cover online, one year ago, I had no idea that someone could ever play my drum programmings with such dedication, musicality and tightness.
He was really thrilled to play live with me and so we decided to make it happen.
I can’t be more happy to work with such a great friend/musician."

In the same month, The Algorithm signed a record deal with the British label Basick Records.
