The first Quantum Computer Music Release! 

Premiere @Moskalus 

QUBISM features compositions created with quantum computers. It results from Miranda’s research into harnessing emergent quantum computing technology to compose.

EDUARDO RECK MIRANDA'S INTRODUCTION TO QUBISM
While having learned classical musical instruments since childhood, my preferred tool for composing is the computer. I have been delving into Artificial Intelligence (AI) and innovative computing methods for composition for some time now. An intelligently programmed computer can collaborate in the creative process, offering fresh insights and ideas beyond my own.

Lumina Grooves 1, 2 and 3 are three renderings of a multifaceted piece commissioned for the festival Komplementārās pretrunas (Complementary Contradictions, in English), which took place in Riga, Latvia, in 2023.
I developed with my team a piece of software for a photonic quantum computer to deconstruct a given piece of music and deduce algorithms to reconstruct it from its bare bones. To begin with, I wrote a short composition scored for a chamber ensemble. It was in a minimalist style, inspired by the work of American composer Philip Glass. Then, I inputted the piece into the photonic software for processing.
Every time I ask the photonic computer to produce a new composition, the results will always be distinct. This is due to the statistical nature of the deduced algorithms and the inherent stochasticity of quantum computers. Metaphorically, it is as if Lumina Grooves lives in a multiverse with many observable versions.

Eight years since their inaugural release, Mexico City-based record label Discos Sentimiento issue 'Atlas' LP from Pedro Ceñal Murga, better known as superplasticfantastic...Our pick from the album is ‘Kabur‘. Spanning over 6-minutes, the track unfolds as a beguiling journey across the planet's edge, melding the pulse of neo-dancehall rhythms with a spectral wash of distant echoes and mind-warping arpeggios. The midsection provides a momentary reprieve, a serene interlude that anchors the listener before dissolving into a cloud of ultra-filtered, dub-inflected atmospheres. This tension gradually builds, crescendoing into a surging vortex of psyched-out oscillations, sending waves of sonic disarray rippling like astroparticles.

Dublin-based imprint Reasons To Dance prepare to release 'Lyra Pad' from London-based producer St. Amp...Our premiere pick is Will Hofbauer's reimagining of 'Lyra Pad', a 5-minute cruise gliding through shimmering avenues of digital harps, seamlessly blending in a carnival of Reggaeton influenced drum patterns and bubbling soundscapes. The track evokes the image of glinting conkers scattered across barren land, where the interplay of rhythmic tension and atmospheric depth creates a beguiling sense of both movement and stillness. With its ethereal yet grounded qualities, this version is a must-listen for fans of the slow-mo pulse of RAMZi and DJ Python.

Prague-based producer Täino returns with 'Street Tales', his third solo outing, self-released with a bold yet intimate sense of independence...Standout track, 'Miss Regrets', pulls listeners into a percussive labyrinth of multi-layered polyrhythms, evoking the sounds of a neon-drenched cityscape at dusk. A seaside-tinged ambient soundscape unfurls beneath the track’s dense, undulating frequencies, cinematic monologues and murky basslines winding together to create a texture of smoky introspection. The track’s glitch-laden rhythm is a slow burn, unfolding with each percussive shift, calling for reflection on the often fragile boundaries of the human psyche, and the fleeting moments of clarity that emerge from the chaos.
