In 2025 I want to:

- Learn to scratch like Hip-Hop DJs.

- Make one techno track that could pass off as something that a local DJ in some random city would play and that the people in that room would enjoy.

I have previously taken in-person piano lessons, and I've spent quite a bit of time in Ableton and with MPC X, and with a few different keyboards and a drum machine. I have a mid-range DJ controller at home, the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3.

Music is a hobby for me, and I cannot dedicate anywhere near full time to it in 2025. But if I can do these two things, then 2025 would be a great year in terms of my music hobby.
