Browse piano sheets by TheFatRat on Zen Virtual Piano. TheFatRat is the producer Christian Büttner from Göttingen, a small university town in Germany. He has said, “I grew up making music and learned it like a language, starting when I was two years old, sitting on my mom’s lap when she was playing piano. I was hitting random keys while my mom played.” A producer who describes music as a language learned from a parent’s piano links his craft to ordinary family life. As a teenager he wanted to become a conductor but finally figured out it was not creative enough for him, so he chose music producer instead, and he invested all the money he had saved for a car into a studio. He has said he asked himself what the equivalent of a conductor today would be, and that he had been a music producer for other artists for ten years. A would-be conductor who put money saved for a car into a studio treats production as a kind of conducting for a new age. His music ranges from euphoric progressive house to orchestral trap, melodic glitch-hop and K-pop, with a heavy influence of video game music, according to Digital Journal. He calls “Monody” his song with a completely crazy structure, over five minutes long, connecting epic orchestral elements with electronic elements. A single track that joins orchestral and electronic ideas fits a producer who once wanted to become a conductor. He has said, “For the first ten years of my career, I followed what everybody told me I should do. Until one day, I said, ‘I have to trust my own tastes, my own judgment, and my own feelings.’” His music is free to use for creators on social media platforms like YouTube, he makes all stems of his music public so people can get creative with it, and he has said that one important decision he made was not to copyright protect his songs on social media. Letting others use and rework his stems in public suggests a producer who treats music as shared material. His album Parallax has ten songs, and every song has its own pixel-art artwork; together the songs and artworks tell one story, which ends with the last song, “Let Love Win.” Free music, public stems and an album that tells one story show two kinds of sharing: tools for other creators and a story for listeners.
