Boyinaband and I tried to fake each other out between obscure music genres and completely weird ones that we made up. See how many you get right!
I'm also in the midst of working on a few collabs with Cuckoo, the first of which is this little jam w...

It's hard to sum up everything about this week's videos in the title 'cause they're pretty jam packed with fun stuff! I'm really proud of both of them though for the music in them, the video editing, the entertainment value, pushing forward my agenda of staying very well hydrated...
Another slightly late post, sorry - I just got back from Playlist Live!
Had the chance to work with some much bigger channels, not to mention really kind wonderful humans!
Here's a rendition of "You're Welcome" from Moana that I did with Peter Hollens, using only our voices, pineapples, coconuts, seashells, a canoe, and ...

Howdy howdy!
This week's videos were a whole bunch of music-making fun.
I wanted to finally use a bunch of the music apps I've downloaded to make solid tracks, rather than just messing around in them for ten minutes at a time and having nothing to show for it. Two different approaches to that in 2017-04-29 01:02:19 +0000 UTC View Post
Well folks, I'm a silly billy, I started making this post for last week's videos and never got it out of draft mode until now as I'm working on THIS WEEK's post. Forgive the weird timing!
First up, I made a bunch of fun mini-tracks using my OP-1 through a basic loop pedal, just as a way of going 100% on creativity and not doin...

Hey everyone! We recently reached the GET A DRONE Patreon goal and that's what today's video is all about! Obviously the first thing I had to do with it was sample it. Watch here and get the music 2017-04-14 03:13:05 +0000 UTC View Post
It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Adventure Time, and this week when we played Vote On What Music Andrew Should Work On we ended up in a folder of music inspired by the show (with a little bit of general video game influence thrown in as well).

I think we have a fun new format! I posted screenshots of my work-in-progress hard drive on Twitter, and everyone voted on what song I should finish based on just the titles. I really enjoyed making this video and I hope you'll enjoy it too! ...

Not sure how to explain this one, and in fact it's probably better if I don't and just let you experience this MUSICAL ILLUSION that I came across a while back!

I thought I would try out a video that pulled from my back catalog to blaze through a ton of genres . There aren't a lot of ways to succinctly get across the range of music I love! Let me know what you think!

If you didn't already catch the GLORIOUS MIDI UNICORN, this got shared around quite a lot this week and I'm glad to have contributed to the MIDI drawing trend!

I don't even know what to call Monday's video but it's kind of an all-over-the-place music-packed vlog from New York!
Also, not all the music that I shared in it was finished, but you can download the working versions 2017-02-16 23:05:56 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey!
Sorry for the delay in posting this week; I've been in New York working on a *:･ﾟ✧ SECRET PROJECT ✧ : ･ﾟ*
More on that later. Here are this week's videos:
I started this week sharing a thought that turned out to generate a lot more interest than I thought it would! What does it sound like when we invert all the notes in a piece of music from top to bottom? I did it with Beethoven, but if you search the #midiflip tag on YouTube, SoundCloud, and Twitter, you can find all kinds of ot...

Hey everyone!
This week's videos were very analysis-based while I hope still feeling pretty fun and fresh.
First, I noticed a parallel between the Chainsmokers hit "Closer" and the nursery rhyme "Mary Had A Little Lamb" so I did a bit of an experiment combining them in different ways to learn more about What Makes ...

Hey team! I just realized this post has been sitting as a draft for a couple days - sorry about that!
My year-end medley of some of 2016's biggest songs played using household items is here, and I tried to take the production value up a notch this time around.
Molly and I met at this year's Buffer Festival and as she's always looking to share about the blind community and I'm always trying to find unique ways to make music, we thought this would be a great collab!

This is a post that should've gone up last week! Just had a bit of a hectic weekend seeing family out of town. Thought I may as well include the video that's going up later today in which I make music with some RAVEN samples! Watch here. 2016-12-19 20:43:44 +0000 UTC View Post

I know normally I post to Patreon at the end of the week, but I'm really excited about this video and want as many eyeballs as possible on it while it's brand new. This is the music video for "Every Night I Dream Of Dancing", from my 2012 eighties-homage album Love & Desolation.
