I posted this link, some days ago:

Coding Trance Music from Scratch (Again) [video]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iu5rnQkfO6M

It´s a well done programming and music performance





A slightly older Switch Angel trance video is how I learned about Strudel/TidalCycles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWXCCBsOMSg. Her narration over top makes it the perfect trance track. "More chaos brings more power. More power brings more control." I desperately want a clean sample of that.

Exact same here. I watched that video about ten times in a row.

I learned it's more important to know how the big sound pieces fit together and what you can do by tweaking them. Have many, many different versions of the big pieces doesn't really matter.

I also came away wishing that Bitwig had a strudel mode. Every time anyone does anything in the grid, they'd be better off with a strudel equivalent. I think.


Yea I have been asking around for such a feature on their subreddit

+1 Switch Angels performances

Increase the duck attack!

"The key... the key... it has to be... G... (minor)."

this is awesome. The only code instruction video instructions that I have watched that doubled as a song. At first I thought it was the Euro dance hall lyrics and then I realized it was actually the code instructions.

Tangent, but...is that her real/natural voice? It's like studio-level female vocals for Hardstyle without even trying. I am mesmerized.

Edit: it looks like she has a filter on. I'm an audio noob so I can't tell.


Connie Mitchell has an OG EDM voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHlnXrZk-T8

She did a lot of live EDM parties during the peak Mallorca et al party island times.


This is an excellent example. It also highlights how if I tried this it would sound terrible as I lack have vocabulary to describe what I want, and how that relates to the code.

Yeah, thanks for both posts. I love the narration with the live coding (like a conversation with voice and code). If I can get to that level, I'll die a happy man.

Is this real library/editor/programming-language ?? I don’t see anything on how it’s made?

Yes, it's Strudel.

It is!

She is using https://strudel.cc/


Every time I watch one of her performances, I smile when she says "... with the scope."
