Born RICHARD ALEXANDER CARABALLO in New York City, minusbaby focuses primarily on software-based composition using lo-fi electronic synthesis and old keyboards to create polyphonic, rhythm-driven electronic music. Ass-shakingly.
Since 1999, he has come to prominence in the chip music scene, with a foundation in New York City and the 8bitpeoples, of which he is a longtime member. minusbaby has performed extensively, having been featured in London's DMZ Media Arts Festival, the International Chiptune Resistance, Blip Festival 2007 and 2008, multiple Pulsewave nights, headlining the premiere of The Tank's "Less Than Three" and Philadelphia's only monthly chip music event, 8static at Studio34.
Recently, he completed a seven show, month-long European tour playing Bleep London and Chipfest IV in England, Blip Festival Europe in Denmark, Bang! in Portugal, two sets at Era New Horizons in Poland and Budapest Micro 2 in Hungary.
In addition to three solo releases, "Monkey Patch" [8bitpeoples], "Strong Arctic Winds Take Terns" [Rappers I Know Records] and his most recent, "Saudade for Beginners" [8bitpeoples], he has been featured on the first Micromusic and Soulseek CD compilations, the influential "8BP050" [8bitpeoples/The Tank] as musician and designer and War Child's "Yesmamma" [Ninja Tune/Magex] compilation alongside Coldcut and Amon Tobin.
Inspired by a residency in Brazil, minusbaby recouped his technique and scope to prepare and produce a new mission: the propagation of a unique brand of chip music largely informed by 1960s samba and boogaloo, 1970s krautrock and Música Popular Brasileira, 1980s no wave, hip-hop and electro, and 1990s shoegaze and post-techno along with a superabundance of collaborators including, but not limited to, Definitive Jux's DJ Big Wiz, OxygenStar, Balún, Max ZT, glomag and Neil Voss.
