Procedural music


Recommended Posts

Do you like it? Stuff like Autechre. I use a program called mixtikl to make this stuff. It's pretty basic, but interesting and cool. My band camp has 5 Procedural tracks lined up. I also have a sound clud with all kinds of music. My bandcamp has various other kinds of music too.

I was super interested in the program used to make it (I love procedural generation) until I saw it's limitations on Windows.

Was it Wotja? I use an older predecessor program called mixtikl. There's tons of ways to make procedural music.

Mixtlkl, or whatever it is. Do tell me, I know on that crazy website that lets you make MIDIs.

There's a lot of room left to explore in procedurally generated music. I remember back in the day most of it was to generate MIDI notes or utilized pre-existing loops. Do newer ones generate custom synthesizer sounds as well (that is the instrument is procedural changed)? On the synthesis side, I programmed my own using MATLAB (not friendly for the general market) to generate creepy sounds that I use in music.

Mixtikl and wotja does a lot more than just rearrange notes. It's really hard to describe. Generative music now is really complex and one of the most esoteric ways i've ever ever tried to make music. I mostly use synthesizers and drum machines for my music

It can also be frustrating for some people I think. I can spend an hour working on something and save it and when i load it, everything is slightly different. The software does what it wants to do.
