hey so if anyones interested n reading some interviews with some c64 legends, theres a feature called "c64 legends interview" in issue 200 of computer music...

its got MARTIN GALWAY, BEN DALGLISH, and ROB HUBBARD, surely the 3 most legendary c64 legends of all, and some great insights like

<rob hubbard> compared to the c64, the spectrum was a piece of garbage

and

<martin galway> any man who says the spectrum is better than the c64 is being rather foolhardy

im not gonna scan it because setting up the scanner is a bunch of effort, but you can get the magazine if youre interested, i guess its either in shops now or just about to hit shops (wh smith would stock it) for £6.25 or you can get the ipad/android issue for £2.99 but they do a free 1 month trial so you could get  just this  issue for free if youve got one of them tablet things

theres also a feature called "a brief history of computer music" which covers some of the pre-chip stuff you might find interesting and ofc a bunch of other stuff

well thats it... just a heads up if you want to read an interview with c64 legends

happy new years 2k14 ok

i made this midi compiler
its like a programming language for midi files
and it uses the ~industry standard~ Tcl programming language so if you learn how to use it youll literally be more employable

http://8bitcollective.biz/$/software/mi … anual.html

idk theres a lot of stuff like supercollider and max but in the end i think they are really focused on synthesis andwe've had powerfull tools for synthesizing new sounds for ages

so this is just pure midi and its all about ---algorithmic composition--- aka computer aided composition or what not.

like in 10 lines you can make a program that plays every note on every instrumet...or whatever, you know its pretty hacker

i dont think its hard to use and its kind of unique in what it is i think although i didnt spend much time lookin

anyway i love hyping up my stuff and none of you are gonna care LOL but anyway happy new year have a great one :-)

xxx
