TLDR: Look at https://github.com/jinpark/something-sunshine/edit/gh-pages/_posts/2015-01-28-Something-About-Recapping-2014.markdown as an example and copy paste it into a new file, keeping the same naming convention. Change everything there that looks like you should change. Bam, new post

is the space separated list of categories that we can later use for filteringsoundcloud_id
is the track id from soundcloud. There is no simple way to get it but currently, the easiest way is to go to the share -> embed on the track and it will copy something like
<iframe width="100%" height="450" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/42618806&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true"></iframe>
...tracks/TRACKID&auto_play=false...
is where the track ID is. If this is not added on the post, there will be an error on the soundcloud embed.
The rest of the post will be in markdown format. It is a fairly simple (this post was written in markdown!) markup language. Github does a much better job than me in explaining it
