Night Drive 9

My first DnB set and it's a corker (in a gentle, melodic, vocal kind of way)

String Theory

One of several tracks I made in the late 1990s with Cubase, a Roland Alpha Juno 1 and an Akai sampler. Remastered with a free online tool I found -> https://app.bakuage.com

Sorry about the lazy AI cover art, and the minute of beats at the end.

1904

Late-night radio sampling mayhem from The First Album (1999) - remastered for 2025.

Apols again for the AI art.

Rather Like the Texture of a Cake

DarwinTunes medley at 3000 generations

This medley repeats each loop 4 times, rather than the usual 2.  More relaxing...

Don't forget you can take part and steer the evolution of DarwinTunes here:

DarwinTunes medley at 3060 generations

We're very grateful for the generosity of Imperial College London for hosting the servers that breed your DarwinTunes and generate their audio. Sadly this arrangement may soon come to an end and we will be closing down the game (http://game.darwintunes.org), taking a break and hopefully coming back with something bigger and better.

Thank you so much for your support. Now is the time to breed more loops, download them and make beautiful weird music before we pull the plug! Keep in touch via Twitter and Facebook. Our sister site Evolectronica.com is still running with the ancestor of DarwinTunes - check it out!

So, here are 200 loops and 49 minutes of recent DarwinTunes magic, thanks to the 116 players listed below (in order of appearance - some appear multiple times)

AutoDarwinTrack 2016-11-29 bye for now...

Dr Bob MacCallum from Imperial College London describes the DarwinTunes experiment and its results delivered in classic Open University style.

DarwinTunes - evolution of music commentary

Here we have a selection of the latest loops from http://darwintunes.org/evolve-music

DarwinTunes medley at 3520 generations

DarwinTunes medley at 3630 generations

The latest from http://darwintunes.org/evolve-music 

DarwinTunes medley at 4155 generations

Interesting new loops from http://darwintunes.org/evolve-music

DarwinTunes medley at 4432 generations

Latest and greatest from http://darwintunes.org/evolve-music

DarwinTunes medley at 4704 generations

Sorry for the long wait - here is the latest from http://darwintunes.org/evolve-music

DarwinTunes medley at 6828 generations

For the first time we have made a medley completely automatically (previously, loops were picked by Bob for the medleys).  For each 100 generation period a consistently highly rated loop (across multiple raters) is chosen by a simple confidence interval-based statistic.  Most loops scored more than 4 (I like it) on average.  Reply to the timed comments if you would like more detailed statistics for particular loops.  Homologous recombination was enabled from around 3300 generations.

DarwinTunes - the first 7200 generations

The final chapter of the original DarwinTunes experiment.  Here are some randomly selected loops from the final population.

DarwinTunes-medley-at-8700-generations

Bob is a human who loves music and has been doing live mixes on a lockdown radio station he set up with friends. Most are on Mixcloud (https://www.mixcloud.com/Glastonauts_Live/) but he'll start putting them here too.

DarwinTunes (2009-2016) was an experiment to see what kind of music we get as a result of evolution by natural selection applied to a computer-generated four bar loop.  The "synth patches" are evolved also - using additive synthesis (just sine waves).  The only human input was the choice of tempo, time signature, effects rack and few other minor things.
