This track is one of the coolest tracks that came out of this entire experience. I knew some of the modes had some songs that I had been using my keyboard (as in the one I type on) for the piano parts. On this one, I hooked up my actual keyboard and really applied myself to the track. You can hear the groove from the very start. I imagined the Infinity Triplets, always thinking of the next loop and sample in the line up. Building with synths and guitar rhythms over a very real sounding drum landscape. That track builds you up, lets you climb, and then removes the ground to see if you have wings. With the proper mindset, you can kick into a cool mental overview of an infinite landscape that somehow received an addition. You remember when you were a kid and said "infinity plus one"? Well this is the plus one. Everything the app needed, with one more looper ready to pop you up and down a sine wave that never ends. Right at the end of Infinity, the bassist reminds you, "There's more...we're always adding it."

Put down your guitar, this track is Stoopid and Electro. I'm always looking for sounds I've never heard before. This is, admittedly, a former Kadeshavara track! Which means it is a JPS Grooves track too! So even though it wasn't created for SnowCone MathFest, I gave it a really nice remaster treatment and knew that it would fit in just perfect with neon electric SnowCone MathFest vibe I've been looking for. You can find it in Infinity Lake on the app, or the Jukebox there as well. As usual, you have to put up with my exposition for a little bit before you get to the cool solos and good stuff; give it a minute, let it breathe and you'll hear some pretty cool Stoopid Electro.

Digifest community hub 2025: how do communities help us adapt?

NEW ALBUM RELEASING SOON! (January 1, 2026) — stream JPS Grooves on all platforms or dive into fresh sketches here on SoundCloud. Even more music also under Kadeshavara.

I rebranded back to JPS Grooves because it’s simple — and because I love making music. This page is my sketch board: not every track is “perfect,” but they’re all for you. If one hits your soul or opens a new door, that’s the win.

Miles said, “It takes a selfish person to be original.”
So for you, I’m being selfish — chasing the sound all the way through. Enjoy it. 🙏

More: jpsgrooves.com • Also: yes, I write books and make musical math games (SnowCone MathFest). 🍧 Stay tuned!
