But I spent a considerable amount of time tweaking the random process until I found something that was musically satisfactory. This is just mind blowing to me. The music is actually really good, I've been playing it on repeat and I just wish it could be longer.

if you like that kind of thing (algorithmic chiptunes), you might enjoy the emerging school of live coding: http://mixmag.net/feature/algorave https://youtu.be/KJPdbp1An2s?t=31m29s

I find there's something fundamental about small sized demos. Trying to craft something as diverse as possible with as few symbols as possible means you have to encode chaos and order at the same time.
