I love the beautiful simplicity of this. The liquid Fender Rhodes and the acoustic bass. The sax is so restrained and comes in at just the right times. The subtle key changes starting at 4:29 are really nice.
Thank you. Would you believe I didn’t write or perform this, but I wrote the code that did?
That’s cool. I was a software developer for many years and I just recently started making music. I would be most interested in the process.
Essentially it’s a set of 8 software LFOs that provide values that can be combined in different ways to control the pitch, duration and velocity of notes on up to 4 MIDI outputs, plus the duration of rests and longer gaps in each stream of notes. The LFOs can be configured with waveshape, frequency, amplitude and bias and there’s separate control over tempo and base pulse division, with the whole lot passing through a variable scale filter and key transposer before being output to the MIDI channels.
Very nice. Reminded me a bit of Ooda/Riffer generated music in place but there seems more to this piece, especially when the sax comes in. I enjoyed it.
I think it betrays its origins, largely because there are no stylistic cliches in the sax playing…
I would be chuffed if I’d written sw to produce this, it’s an enjoyable meander. The key change is sweetly dropped. Wonder what it would sound like if the midi was sent to, say, borsta and skaka? 🤔
I have neither.
I’m now thinking of ways in which to guide the meandering in directions that follow human musical expectations.
Things to address:
There is no thematic material
There is no harmonic progression or cadencial resolutions
If I solve those issues, then the current code can be adjusted to drive variations in the themes and harmonic progression.
Sort of variable thematic recursion based around variable scale positions?
Music (imo) is an expression of feeling, the intention of an improvisational player also has it’s own adsr envelope, each expressed ‘chunk’ of a piece being it’s own wavelet of communication, much of this being as tonal and dynamic as it is harmonic, thematic and rhythmic, and the overall piece somehow expressing the sum of all these ‘wavelet chunks’.
And of course, the less you notice the player’s mechanism, the more effective the conveyance of feeling.
Interested to hear what you come out with though, very difficult to reduce musical experience to algorithmic data.
Nice bit of coding… interesting to see where you go with this project 👍
Nice coding for a nice output.
Very interesting. I hope you continue and share its evolution.
