Description
this is a new recording of "Sequence" for mjrf, it is the first ic42 music for macjams. it now adds a shakuhachi. it is a kind of japanese bamboo flute. this is music generated automatically by computer.

original description is: east+west. pentatonic ambience punctuated by rhythmic sequences. initial output was sub-optimal. michael2 feedback integrated to create version 0x02: added a start and an end, repeated specific sections to lengthen piece, altered timbre and equalization for wider frequency spread, added occasional temporal timbre envelopes to decrease monotony. changes are an attempt to increase pleasure.

Arigato.
Hai, your mac must be oriental as it is pretty adept at making this music sound as good as this. Michael 2 must have one ear trained to the East. Sweet. :)

nice job Hai! I really like the special flavoring of your shakuhachi flute (?), it sounds very unique and you've got some real talent in bringing out the best in it! Glad to see an upload from you!

magnatone of joy
it is always an honour to receive words and thoughts from you. there is a real shakuhachi here. it is beautiful. it is in a box. it is never played. it can only be played by a skilled expert of shakuhachi. for this music, a software added new notes to an old music. then a computer sample of a breathy flute is used to play the new notes. it is not human. however, it is hoped to be a nice sound.

heart of feter
it is a blue sound of flute. perhaps it is shy. it is a wish someday to live the magic dream. for now, the shy flute must sleep, and dream of more notes. 0x0

IC, I mean Hai
This has a feel of many dreams bubbling to the surface of a pond. some bursting, some floating up to the sky, some captured by the wind and are carried to the dreamer. It is quite wonderful how computer music can convey your deep emotion. Thank you for sharing your dreams with us. :-)

thank you

smokeyvw is ebb flow master
it is hypnotic to listen to your music. it is a simple attempt of a student. there is much to learn. a vision of different birds is often seen here. perhaps the birds found a way into the music. that is a good thing. thank you. 0x0

I like this...
Tasteful, provocative... a touch of shinto and kyoto in the voicings. Nicely done!

shinto spirit
there is much spiritual aspect to music. so it is a joy to know that you can feel the touch. also, kyoto is ichiban (best) city in japan, it is beautiful with many temples and gardens. memories of kyoto are strong, and perhaps the memories take a ride on the notes as well. thank you. lunatrick music is exceptional. 0x0

It worked! Very enjoyable listen. More Groove Salad type stuff. Very relaxing and meditative.

a love slave relationship
the computer must obey my rules. she learns everything i teach. however, she learns no more than that. sometimes there is no joy of her, it is only work. you speak the truth, she needs a creativity. it creates a great joy to know you are a fan of us. we will make more music together. thank you. 0x0

INSPIRING!
I was immediately drawn into this piece from the very first deep note -- WOW!

I like the unexpected stabs of rhythm which punctuate this piece throughout. It keeps my ears on my toes, ha ha!

The shakuhachi flute sound offers an excellent contrast to the more "synthed" sounds -- really a nice balance.

The punctuated lower notes at the very end of the piece offer promise of what is to come -- I would have loved to hear a whole new section based on those notes/rhythms. I wanted MORE! ;-)

Very nice work. I want to tell you how much this music is inspiring me to be more experimental and explore synth sounds in greater depth.

Why? Because you are creating something surprisingly expressive here. Hey, let's dive into the 21st century! At last.

art of drawing interest
to bring a listener into the music, so they get interested and lost, that is the goal. it is exciting to draw your interest, cameron.

it is easy to create computer-generated music. it is easy to add too many synthesizers. it is difficult to balance with natural sounds. this was a struggle to balance. a true shakuhachi player creates an amazing sound. this is an inadequate imitation, however, it is all i can do. it is good to know of your approval of balance, this was a hope.

the rhythms were an accident of the computer algorithm. it created interesting notes and rhythmic ideas. this is version 0x03 of this music. the original sequence version 0x01 is very short and not good at all. it is the first piece i submitted to macjams. it is a hope that i am learning to create better music. thank you for listening to my experiments. it is good to dive into the 21st century. we will learn together. 0x0

bad imitation
it is a wish to use true shakuhachi. however, it is too difficult to play, and no instrument recording is found yet. so a pan pipe is substituted. it is good to know this is approved. thank you for a listen and comment. it is time to seek your music to listen to again. 0x0

was working overtime on that flute! I'm sure it heated up pretty good making sure that the flute parts fit in as tightly as they did...

Nice work ic42... We won't replace you with ic42a... you are doing a good job.
