A Song I Made

You don't follow any sort of mode or scale at all, there aren't any phrases, and there's just little bits of dissonance and weirdness thrown in that are too random to actually come off like avant-garde music.
If you're interested in composition, don't give up though. I recommend learning more about scales, modes, cadences, and chord structure, and then you should be able to write a simple song with a theme and harmony.

Yeah. I never really tried to stick with being in C major *cough cough* extra half steps *cough cough* but otherwise just found 1-3-5, 1-5, 1-4-7 chords and so on really boring.

Chords are dum
I never unsderstood the use of them
I just memorize every key and I can play just fine.

Chord structure is important if you want to write music or do piano comping. Apart from classical piano music, most genres just write out piano chords and you're expected to know the notes and voice leading by memory.

Oh
Well I dont write music so it doesnt really matter
OT: the song sounds like a mess tbh.

Honestly it's not too bad, I enjoy the rhythm you establish from 0:13 to 0:21. I'd like to hear you develop your ideas into larger themes though.
also for future reference this should go in the music megathread or have its own thread in creativity, the users there spend most of their time giving feedback and sharing new music.
