I've played classical guitar since the 8th grade, and it has been one of the greatest joys of my life to be able to learn and play challenging pieces and to perform classical and contemporary hits for family and friends. When I came to Bloomington in 2017, I hadn't played much classical guitar since 2013 , but playing in the Bloomington Classical Guitar Ensemble reinvigorated my appreciation for the instrument and its lore, which had been pushed to the wayside while I was living in Berkeley. Each year we play a hodgepodge of Christmas concerts around town and usually play the final show of the Bloomington Classical Guitar Festival, a real treat.
I've produced and written some beats and songs which I post mainly on my soundcloud. (Warning: the mixing is not great on any of these so I apologize).
I think these two house songs are pretty fun : soundcloud.com/incaugnito/sets/cityofdreams
I tried to make some lo-fi stuff too and this is my favorite from that era:

and a beat very much inspired by Tyler the Creator's Igor:

My first one I did with Ableton and tried to replicate the Age of Mythology soundtrack for the Egyptian part of the campaign:

A couple of songs I worked on with some friends, a project which I unfortunately didn't carry on for too long.
A band I formed with a few other astronomy graduate students while at IU: Zack Maas, Jeff Gerber, and Justin Kader. Our mascot was Jerry the cat we played primarily in a basement, hence the name.
We recorded properly a few songs and these are on our soundcloud but I'll link them in order of my favorite:
High school band with Rob King, Radek Nabrzyski, and Alex Jones.
The link is to our performance of our lone completed original "The Final Show".
When I was a wee lad (~15) I published a song on CD Baby and then a couple of years ago a cousin of mine asked me if this song was by me. From the ancient archies of CD Baby to Spotify I have come a long way.
My buddy Seamus and I spun this up on a Saturday night in our freshman year of high school.
