Reply to Looking to make music

hi looking to get more in to making my own songs
i can do slow simple stuff like heres a video and song i made

but i want to get more in the style of electro/house

i listen to deadmau5 and his songs sound so simple
but i try to keep the same beat for a whole song it just sounds boring
but somehow he makes it sound good

just upgraded to ableton 8 as well so if anyone has tips on how to make my own electro house songs then that would be great.
