I was recently introduced to this guy by a someone who is really big into music. At 1st I was unsure exactly what to think of the guy. I mean, you look at the guy and then see him in action and I just cannot help but to think of some sort of savant rain man aspect to the guy.

Give you a little background on the guy. From the looks of things, hes just dude in his living room with some good equipment and an absolute gift. He's mostly into hip-hop stuff and thats what he usually produces but he also works with some classical and even does his own interpretation of Johann Pachelbel's "Canon in D". He also has a video of him just jammin out with some Led Zeppelin.

And he does all of this on a keyboard. Just a keyboard and some software on his computer.

Here are some clips of him just doing typical YouTube Vlogs:

He begins most of his videos with the greeting, "Hello YouTubes"

Now check out his music.

I want you to check out the finished product of a few of songs before actually seeing the guy work.

He's got a ton of videos on there and with each one I watch, I am just amazed. Seeing some of the videos he put out before doing the actual music stuff and then seeing the musical ones is incredible. Such a contrast of worlds. Hes got a CD on iTunes. I scooped it because I thought it was incredible.
