A short breakcore IDM mix, over top a Yo Gabba Gabba tune.  If you have kids or know someone who does, you probably know this.

I have to say, Yo Gabba Gabba has some amazing music.  Introducing youngsters to chiptune and electro at such a young age is pure brilliance.

I make a range of music from electronica to playing acoustic guitar and keyboard.  The higher the number, the more recent the track.  My genre often seems to be running into classical trippiness lately.  A lot of the tracks I enjoy making and listening to have an increasing level of complexity, I hope hah, that is making the mixing like a puzzle to figure out for me, but flow much more smoothly.  I started making music in SoCal in 2011, as my campus was cool enough to offer an Electronic Music 1 class.  It was six hours every Saturday, and I felt like the teacher talked to much because I just wanted to make music.  I didn't have the knowledge of how to mix down tracks yet to keep them, so some of the earliest stuff I that I made, I recorded directly back into the computer will recording a video really fast, which was wise, as five years later, I've never fully converted all those protools tracks.  From there, I started using a computer lab at a school I didn't go to that was near where I lived.  Thanks to headphones, my age, and the lack of a login, I could make tracks until I had to return to property (don't ask).  I wound up failing the class, because I never studied the terms, I was too interested in making music. For a while, the tracks I made had a time limit, because I'd always have to leave before I'd be satisfied with the mixing, and it would come out very minimalistic.  Eventually, when I got posession of my own computer once more, they started increasing in complexity.  Protools sessions - Fall 2011 Garageband - 2011-2014 Mixcraft 2014 to present Ableton (just learning)

To be able to see the notes in front of me gave me a sort of visual aid that I'd never really had before making music.  Sometimes, I just liked playing in order to make notes that were in patterns I liked, but I eventually realized that I could push into further abstractness, and although I do some simple tracks sometimes still, I've mostly moved into a more serious kind of direction.. improvising, but being able to listen back to it and feel happy (after a long while of editing, usually)  I'm just now realizing how much I've missed from not recording audio as much as midi, so I'm starting to put vocals and weird vocal noises back in, slowly but surely.  Either way, if you don't know where to start, go to my best of playlist.. it's just over an hours worth of tracks ranging from 2011 to the present.
One of the most brilliant things about making music, is that I can do it almost no matter how badly my pain issues get... although my wrists hurt a lot now from driving stickshift (and when the weather turns cold), there is nothing sweeter than bringing something new into existence where there was formally nothing.  A new noise.  A nice noise.  A noisey noise.

You may find random acaplela covers I've recorded on here too, or maybe a few comedy related things too, since I do stand-up comedy (mainly open mics) as well, a lot less consistent than my music though, because I can only do one whenever I'm in my bed.  I've not found anyone strong enough to bring my bed to the stage yet.  Maybe then, I'll perform with the consistancy that i record.
