When I started Headstash Music I was happily surprised to see this playlist become the most well-liked. Today's young composers are taking classical music in a whole new direction, using more effects on their instruments, looping and adding subtle electronic textures to the production. I wanted to respect the original sound as well, so there is also quite a bit of music on here that follows a more standard format....enjoy
