I write in a variety of styles -- from classical to EDM to ambient to I don't know what to call it. :D I use (and recommend) DistroKid for distribution, so my music is in all the normal places -- YouTube, Spotify, Apple, ... https://open.spotify.com/artist/6OR0sCvSClo5DHkk7fEv72 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy5Wy1HJ8muFQM87g2ctUeg https://music.apple.com/au/artist/barryvan/1453603433 Excitingly, an indie game dev…

Would you happen to know, does DistroKid offer the same pro publishing services like CD baby etc? At a cursory glanse, I saw a limited list on the DistroKid website vs a longer royalties services list competitors have.

P.S. congratulations on the game relase! Spotify was asking me to login, so i think I found you on youtube, giving a listen. Perhaps consider updating your post by adding a non-spotify link?

A number of years ago a co-worker didn't believe that I could sing or play guitar, let alone at the same time! So I told him to pick a song and I would record it. He picked "Holding on For A Hero" by Bonnie Tyler.

I didn't think that song was very interesting and so I decided to choose one that was more my own liking. Taylor Swift's new album had just come out. Although I'm definitely not a Swifty I thought some of her songs were catchy, so I decided to have some fun with it. You can probably tell that I'm a huge Weird Al fan.

I'm a techno producer. I have a couple of demos on soundcloud:

I also have a couple of tracks on Spotify:

I've just finished writing a deep techno LP which should be getting released soon. I wish I could share that as I think it's much better than my work up till now but anyway! Deep Techno is a perfect style for background music to code to, similar in some ways to IDM but the repetitive 4/4 beat is great for focusing - well it is for me!

If you're interested in the style check out the deep techno playlist on my Spotify page, I cover all the well known artists of the subgenre.
