Letterage
A lot of SynthEdit MIDI trickery to Machinedrum here. Recording random MIDI signals into patterns, thus making them quantised. Wouldn't be a bad MD demo really if the softsynths (not many of them either) were removed.

this is well produced and it sounds like you know what buttons youre pressing on your box of tricks. next time id like something more poppy with one of those catchy melodies that you can hum all day long and a four part harmony to make my heart melt please.

Yeah like mentioned above, a lot of nice tricks but as a song it's not the grandest, very nice though :)

And about 10 years too late for this sort of guff to pass as experimental.

It's good, maybe a couple minutes too long. I love the alien sounding kick.

Thanks! It's up then hehe... it's a shame you can't listen to it using their new program thing, I've been trying for a while to access my own music through that and it never works.

Programming and nonlinearity/guided randomness is interesting. I liked it a lot more before the more repetitive overlay came over the top. Actually I only really like the 1st 16 seconds, but there is quite a shortage of tracks that use algorithms well which is why autechre stays on top. What did you program it with? I want to try music experiments in actionscript eventually if that's even suitable to do so.

I suggest you try getting some really shitty speakers and composing through them. This limitation forces you to work with the more important striking properties of the sound rather than subtle things like panning and sound quality that is mostly only obviously present on headphones.

I have heard 1 or 2 of your previous tracks on both headphones and speakers. In both cases the former sounded nice, and superior to the latter which sounded farty in comparison, like some sort of surround sound or rich lushness of some sort was one of the main aesthetic aspects but only recognizable on headphones. I only listened to this recent one on speakers but suspect it has the same property. On speakers it was kinda flat and repetitious without much too it.

On pevious tracks I remember it sounded quite nice and rich rather than 'there', but only on headphones for me at least.
