This is what happens when I try and make happy music. Too many notes!

Happy is sounds good on you, nice. RE: electronic, when you're composing, do actually input note by note (song in head) or do you record live sections and use magic tools to time and sequence them? I know, I'm total electro-noob, and trying to learn anything.

tehloki, I really want to see you make a song with as many notes as you have favorites.

snsranch: In all of the tracks I've submitted here, I've programmed every single note in before rendering, and then done knob-tweaks and fades live. This is excluding the few songs I specified were "live", where I used arpeggiation or just played simple melodies on one take and then did the modulation on the next take.
Usually I'm perfectly capable of playing most of the parts in my songs, but not up to speed or in perfect time. I usually figure them out on a keyboard and then input then in the step seq/piano roll after they're solidly interesting, adding notes and increasing complexity and polyphony as needed.

This makes me want to dance on a cloud surrounded by robots!

Thanks tehloki. I'm in the process of learning and that's really helpful/useful info.
