minusbaby, born Richard Alexander Caraballo in New York City, is a musician, designer, photographer, and wandering, beat-collecting international vagabond, whose finely-crafted blips and bleeps are as eclectic as the broad range of music and culture he draws inspiration from. Focusing primarily on software-based composition, minusbaby uses lo-fi electronic synthesis to create chip music that defies genre classification. One song could be a micromusic lullaby inspired by 17th Century Spanish architecture, while the next may be reggaeton for a cymbal-clapping robotic monkey, composed with an ear for fine hip-hop beats and debuted for an Australian Cattle Dog in Sao Paulo, Brazil. With minusbaby, 60s-70s Brazilian pop can meet mid-80s New York b-boy jams cut with Santeria percussive patterns, everything filtered through the ears and fingers of a musician looking to push what chip music can display stylistically, and what people will experience when they hear it themselves
