"IN'T'STELLAAA" - (Album Preview)

Generative music made using TidalCycles. Algorave is the future.

The code that generates this music looks something like this:

d1 $ stack [
   sound " ~ XTRL1_Closed_Hats:27 ~ XTRL1_Closed_Hats:24 ~ XTRL1_Closed_Hats:27 ~ XTRL1_Closed_Hats:24 " # gain 0.9,
    brak $ sound "XTRL1_Bassdrums:5 [~ XTRL1_Bassdrums:5] ~  XTRL1_Bassdrums:5" # gain 1.2,
    sound "[ XTRL1_Closed_Hats:1*16 ]" # n ( choose [ 1 .. 100] ),
    slow 16 $ chop 64 $ sound "~ XTRL2_Special_Loops:16   ~ XTRL2_Special_Loops:16" # n ( choose  [17 ] ),
    brak $ sound "~ [ ~ XTRL1_Claps_n_Snares:16]    ~ [ ~ XTRL1_Claps_n_Snares:16] " # n ( choose  [1 .. 100] ),
    sound "~ XTRL1__Shots" # n ( choose  [ 100 ] ) # gain 0.6 # up (run 16) # pan sine1,
    iter 4 $ every 2 (rev) $ sound " ~ [ ~  XTRL1__Shots*4]" # n ( choose  [ 64 .. 99 ] ) # gain 0.9 ,
    iter 4 $ every 2 (rev) $ sound " XTRL1__Shots*16" # n ( choose  [ 64 .. 99 ] ) # gain 0.9 # up (run (choose [8 , 16]))
