(Instrumental) «Digital Core» — Цифровое Ядро

“Algorithm Blues” is lo-fi political rap with conscious hip-hop DNA — part blues, part scroll fatigue. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt drowned out by the algorithm, still trying to make something real in a feed full of filters.

Algorithm Blues

Gates of Hope

Lucid Dream

New piece, back to more energetic and intricate. In 28edo tuning (28 equal steps per octave), and in 28/16 meter. Mostly in counterpoint with melodic lines interwoven or "tangled up" right on top of each other. Plus pads and drums.

Semi-generative in that the "chaotic groove sequencer" program I made in Max generated a lot of the "raw notes", building blocks which I then edited, arranged, and tweaked in many ways. The generative Max program takes a lot of work to set up, organize parameters and parameter presets, and "play". And then a lot more work to edit and change things in an effort to make it sound more "alive". Pretty much every generated note has been tweaked for velocity and duration, and often pitch and rhythm too. Lots of notes were added or deleted as well. The instrumentation, FX, etc, are all done "by hand". The generative stuff is the foundation of the "melodic" voices, which I tried to edit and arrange such that melodies emerge from multiple voices interwoven together. I like the idea of melodies constantly shifting between voices. The drums and pads were added "by hand".

The program generates notes by several methods. Perhaps the most interesting is the "logistic map" equation from chaos math: next-x = r * cur-x (1.0 - cur-x). Depending on the value of the r parameter the output can range from single values repeating to chaos, with islands of interest along the "edge of chaos". I try to find places in the logistic map where there's an ever-changing yet "self-similar" fractal-like feeling. The equation output values between 0-1, which I have Max map to a changing list of pitches in MIDI.

Another interesting method used in Max is having a voice "arpeggiate" though its pitch set—the pitch sets are made from the current scale, transposition, and pitch range, all set by hand and saved in presets per voice. When the number of pitches in the pitch set and/or the arpeggiating sequence pattern is different from the number of notes per 28-step rhythmic loop, the pitches can end up shifting around the rhythm as it loops. When multiple voices do that in different ways the result can be quite complicated and feel somewhat unpredictable.

Being in 28edo tuning, of course I had to use 28/16 meter. An interesting meter as it can just be 7/4 or a whole bunch of more complicated metric patterns, like 7/8 twice per loop, or 7/16 four times per loop, or a bunch of other patterns.

Scales used, with various modulations, in order use use: Tetrawood 4L4s (4 equally large steps and four equally small steps) mode 43434343 (steps of 28edo), Diasem 5L2m2s RH mode 414434143 (diasem is chiral so has "right-handed" and "left-handed" forms), Diasem LH mode 441434143, Diasem RH mode 414434143, "Minor" (5254345), Dietic Minor 4L3m3s mode 4134413413, Omnidiatonic 2L3m2s RH mode 4642642 (another chiral scale form), Diasem mode 143414434, "Minor".

Or more simply put: The track uses scales of 28edo known as Tetrawood, Diasem, "Minor", Dietic Minor, and Omnidiatonic. The scale called "minor" is, as far as I know, basically 28edo's best approximation of "normal" diatonic. Except it uses four different step sizes. Still it seems to sound pretty much like normal 12edo diatonic, at least on this track. Funny how my ear can't really tell there are extra step sizes compared to 12edo diatonic.

Sonic Fauna is a new app designed for experimental electronic music production & sound design through algorithmic and generative creation. With Sonic Fauna you can assemble digital instruments through a super intuitive U.I. and build custom configurations of sequencers, synthesizers, drum machines and effects. The goal of Sonic Fauna is to be both a highly compelling tool for creating interesting sound & music and to be the center of a community of enthusiasts that help guide the direction of the project. The app is currently in a private alpha and is planned to enter a public alpha in the coming months.

Here, I post mainly my experiments in algorithmic/electronic music with programming languages, mainly strudel and sonic pi (check Radio Dulu on YouTube for the live coding). In reposts and likes, 4 main areas of interest: 1) Afro-tropical rhythms, afrobeat; 2) retro 80s pop; 3) electronic, retro videogame music, chiptunes; 4) Turkish psychedelic, Balkan folk. 💛

A human voice, a vintage drum machine, and the soul of the city. I explore cinematic soundscapes with a blend of lo-fi electronica, psychedelia, and raw urban textures. Music for moments of solitude. 🎧
