    How did you get started doing this? Have you always been musically-inclined?

      I really don't know how I got started. I was originally introduced to EDM by a friend who showed me deadmau5, but I don't know quite why I wanted to start making it myself. I have always had a feel for music too, so that made it easier since things like theory came naturally.

        Thanks for answering. If I may ask a follow-up question, do you also know how to play any musical instrument, and do you feel that having the skill to play one helps in producing electronic music?

          I play trombone, a bit of guitar, and I'm learning piano. I feel like messing around on the guitar when I was little helped with the idea of music in general, but I don't have enough skill on anything to really use it (however I'm learning piano for the sole reason of playing for my own songs)

            That's awesome. Good luck on your piano lessons! As an amateur pianist myself, I can definitely say it's helped me gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of music in general. Thanks for the answers!
