Friends! As most of you know, I’m very into generative music. Generative music is exciting to me because it allows us to do things that would be almost unimaginable with conventional instruments, but it does so without getting rid of the excitement of live performance: it is truly technological music. But getting a consistent live setup for my generative sets has been tough, since it has to fulfill two criteria: Maximum control over musically pertinent parameters and enough randomness to make new things possible. But after months and months in the lab (my bedroom), I’ve been able to whittle the setup down to what I demonstrate in this video. I’m really happy to share this with y’all because it incorporates several different MIDI instruments and demonstrates some cool routing techniques. Enjoy!
