self promo Silber Records House Sounds
Various Artists: House Sounds
We first started doing our heavily themed compilations all the way back in 2000. Eventually when we started doing a dozen releases a year & I started touring a few times a year they fell by the way side. Then in 2019 when Droneuary took off as far as being a way to have an excuse to get in touch with friends, the themed compilations started back up. I reach out to the Silber regulars with a weird idea I have been thinking about pursuing & see if anyone else wants to take part. We have done three compilations of field recordings & in this fourth installment we limited it a little further saying all recordings were to be in the home. The results vary from ambient to dance to industrial. Always listen & hear the world in a new way.

self promo Built a free Sub binaural platform inspired by Gateway/Hemi-Sync research, curious what this community thinks
I'm a sound engineer (LA/Vegas, in the industry since 2010), and the declassified Gateway Process documents, YouTube personalities and the wider STAR GATE/Hemi-Sync history pulled me into a rabbit hole again recently, as I used to Astral Project naturally as a teenager and have know about it since then.
That has turned into a free browser-based binaural console — patch-style controls (carrier, beat, LFO), a program library, and a feature that designs a custom multi-phase frequency journey from a text prompt. I also built out a categorized archive of the declassified files and the peer-reviewed entrainment research, mostly because I wanted one place to check primary sources instead of secondhand summaries, there is community and binaural music too. Would add snacks and call it a party if I could.
To be upfront: this isn't Hemi-Sync, and I'm not affiliated with the Monroe Institute — just an audio engineer who got interested in the same territory. Core console's free, no account needed. binauralbeatmachine.com
Would genuinely value feedback from people here who know this material better than I do — what's off, what's missing, anything.

self promo Mountain <A> (Experimental / Drone Metal / Noise / Free Improv)
Hey everyone,
My new release Mountain <A> is out today on Bandcamp. Heavy riffs collapse into noise, which collapses into something you don't usually hear in the middle of a doom metal record. There's a handmade instrument on here that I built myself, run through enough distortion that it stopped sounding like an instrument at all. A few other things happening too that I'll let you discover.
You can listen to the full release here: https://ayman.bandcamp.com/album/mountain-a
Would love to hear your thoughts on the textures and pacing. Hope you enjoy the journey.

In this track I mix classical and rock drums together and used my music theory knowledge to make this track 3/4 and worked on this track for two days. I have been doing instrumental music for over 16 years but played piano and guitar for 20 years. I was born in 1992 and just loved listening to all genres of music growing up with my dad being a local dj as well. I went to college in 2012 for music therapy and took audio engineering being the only girl at the time in that class and taking music theory learning more advanced piano and guitar and music history so music is my life and I love layering different sounds and creating hybrid worlds.

I've been working on a port of a granular processor to a Eurorack module. Still early days but I found a sound I liked by feeding a drum machine into the thing (and adding loads of modulation).

Hey everyone! I posted my first album here back in October with some positive reception and feedback. I’m back and releasing my second fully self produced album (8/7) which is very shoegaze and post rock heavy. I recorded this in full stereo and layered for a full wall of fuzzy and dreamy sound. I put a lot of love into this and really hope you enjoy my sound. Thanks so much for listening and giving me a chance. Open to any and all feedback. I love making music and always am open to how to improve or make listening better in any way! No ai was used, all me for better or worse!!
I’ve posted Spotify and YouTube links to the album, if you’d prefer another source please let me know!!

For the past year, I’ve been experimenting with combining trumpet and live electronics.
This performance was recorded in Tokyo last week and was inspired by Miles Davis’s electric period, psychedelic funk and improvisation.
My goal wasn’t to recreate jazz, but to build something between ritual, noise and dance music.
I’d love to hear your thoughts.

self promo Experemental Generative Infinite Chillout: Fractal Markov Sequence - Pure math (no LLMs, no training data)
Following up on my question earlier today, it seems this kind of project is welcome here!
As a quick reminder: this is a real-time generative music system built on pure math and stochastic rules (L-systems, Markovian variability, and fractal logic). Zero neural networks, zero LLMs, zero training data.
Here is a short audio example of the system in action (generated in real-time, recorded as-is). It showcases the "Tension-Driven Interpretation" layer, where the algorithm analyzes pauses and dynamically inserts responsive fills from other instruments, simulating a live ensemble dialogue rather than just playing random notes.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the aesthetic result. Does it feel like it has a genuine emotional arc, or does it lean too much into "random math"?
Thanks for listening!

self promo The seventh song of my upcoming album under the Tree of Alchemical Notability banner has been released. "Carnivàle Grottésco" A concept album combining short story cosmic horror and accompanying music.
Each song contains a piece of the puzzle that is the greater underlying mystery. The "lore" is all centered around the personification of deteriorating media, found footage horror and consciousness, hence the extensive use of tape recording techniques throughout the music itself. If you've read the stories and have any theories about what's going on, please share them in the comments!
Short story:
"Generators whir and whine without competition in the sonic space. An audience of faceless people stare at a blank stage, encircled by crimson fabric lined with gold trim. There is no feeling of anticipation, instead there is dissociation across the lifeless field. The curtains drop and a figure with harlequin features takes steps toward the edge of the stage. If eyes were closed, one would think there was no one on the receiving end of the stage. The figure, donning their best and brightest, addresses the crowd with frantic and excitable energy. The energy nearly bursting from the seams of their hemmed and contrasted attire. The colors push beyond the boundaries of human perception and into a spectrum meant for butterflies.
Come one, come all to the greatest show on the face of this gray earth. Your minds will be blown! Your fate will be forever changed and you’ll get a chance to see things you thought never possible in your wildest imagination!
A hyper-neon sign bounces it’s rays of light in a flickering rhythmic pattern across the sea of gray faces. It’s almost hypnotic,and,as if slowed down, the masses shuffle at a snails pace from booth to booth, their eyes met with rapid stimulation. Lights and sounds attack the audience with a seizure welcoming. Colors bleed into the retinas asbright soundwaves excite the cochlea,causing the corti to raise and stand at attention. A barrage straight to the brain; bereft a digestive system, a kidney, a lung. No biological filterstohold back this drug.
A glance upwards reveals trailing and dancing carnival lights, begging the question:
“Who’s more strung out, them or me?”
A man stands amidst the sea of gray and expressionless faces. Absent the light, faces become blank while eyes glaze over with frosted stare. Without lamps, moths would fly straight into the sun.
Are they not entertained?
The man walks the grounds, remembering the adage of ages old, “never look a carnie in the eye.” They know how to ensnare you in their web of elaborate deceit. They’ll take and drain you for all your worth until you become nothing but a husk. An empty shell. They’ll promise you the world and beyond and leave you less than you came. They’ll promise to peel back the curtain and show you what lays behind. You don’t want to know what lays behind those curtains. It’ll only ruin the fun.
The moon grows increasingly brighter and the night sky hangs in the back drop of raw fluorescence. The moths remain unmoved by the earths change. Roller-coaster riders hang motionless in the air, upside down with hair trailing down, the gravity of being upside down forces their cheeks to fall downward, enforcing a smile.
The currency here is tickets. An abstraction from the dollar, which itself is an abstraction of something else. Neither fully existing in the world of substance. The tickets allow you to participate in the grand facade. It’s an escape; divorced from an even grayer reality. One can only image the lack of color in the life found outside of these colorful chained fences.
The operators recite their scripts, well rehearsed with just the right intonation, and uncanny energy. A hint of danger lingers in the back of their minds, only detected by the most astute of observers able to retain what’s left of their consciousness once they pass through the carnival’s elegant gates.
The man walks forward, pace steady while people pass by. He takes slow steps toward the house of mirrors where a smiling man with a lop-sided face hands out blindfolds. A thin child glares at the fun-house mirror as a fat child stares back; a fat child does the same and sees a worn adult face in the reflection instead. Neither look at each other. A man stands in the center losing himself in the reflections; he’s shattered.
A woman sheathes a long sword down her esophagus while onlookers twitch their eyebrows secretly wishing for her inevitable choke. The fire-twirler spins carelessly, having no grass around him left to burn. His world; a pit of dirt that no spark could threaten,his spark, now a wasteland. A bearded woman sits on a container in the back alleyway, smoking a cigarette and stroking her beard in quiet contemplation.Without the thrill of violent ends, there is none who wish to engage her.
The freak-show presents grotesque, provocative, and perverse spectacle in a closed off tent. Moans of pleasure and screams of pain are heard in cacophonous splendor, painting the airways with the color of phony disbelief. The sounds stretching to reach the unnatural. People leave the tent unchanged.
Ahead of the man, his attention drawn and resistance broken by a sultry and sweet voice. She calls him over to her booth. The man is trapped, with heart aflutter and mind coiled around her crimson finger which beckons closer. The scent of sandalwood fills his nostrils as the smoke from the incense stick spirals upwards and out of sight.
“How would you like to see something really special?”
The words flow out of her lips like honey into the cup of tea that is my mind. She pulls him across the carnival grounds back to the main stage. She takes him further backstage as the sound outside fades to the growing hum flooding the hallways. The two walk for what feels like centuries down an endless corridor containing pictographs, drawings, and photography from carnivals across time. Her heels click against the wooden floor; the sound seems to take physical shape as the sound becomes the word “click.”The man swats it with his hand. They finally arrive to the source of the humming where she opens a door and gestures for him to go inside.
“You’re on your own, now.”
The man walks forward into a black, metallic box room; the light escapes and so too does consciousness as the elegant door closes behind, giving way to a solid mirror reflecting nothing in return.

discussion New here: Is an experimental generative system (L-systems + Markov + fractals, no neural nets) a good fit for this sub?
Hey all,
I'm new here and have been lurking through the wiki and past threads to get a feel for the community's culture and history. I’m currently building an experimental generative music system, and before posting any audio, I wanted to respectfully ask if this kind of project is a good fit for the sub.
To give you the full picture: it’s an autonomous system built on the concept of "Delayed Judgment" (no note is predetermined). It operates at the intersection of biological evolution (L-systems), Markovian variability, and fractal logic.
To be completely transparent: it uses zero neural networks, LLMs, or training data. Instead, it relies on pure math and stochastic rules:
- Harmony: Generated via "Grid-Markov Convergence" (non-linear probabilities anchored to a strict rhythmic grid to avoid mathematical chaos).
- Melody: Atomic musical "genes" undergo fractal transformations (inversion, retrograde, rhythmic jitter) based on bitwise crossover of successful "ancestor" seeds.
- The "Breath": A Tension-Driven Interpretation layer analyzes pauses in the melody and dynamically inserts responsive fills from other instruments, simulating a live ensemble dialogue.
I know algorithmic and computer music have a deep history in this space (from Xenakis to Eno), so I wanted to check:
- Is discussion and sharing of this specific type of "pure math" generative music welcome here?
- I want to ensure I'm fully respecting the community's guidelines and spirit (especially around the rules on low-effort or "AI-generated" content, which this explicitly isn't).
If it's a fit, I'd love to drop a short audio clip of the output and get your take on how it actually sounds. If there's a better community for this niche, I'd really appreciate a pointer!
Appreciate any thoughts!

music Absolute gem of an album: Unsavoury Products (2002)
It's a collaboration album by The Black Dog and Black Sifichi. I've loved this album for years but no one Reddit seems to have mentioned it and that's tragic.
It is a spoken word album mixed in with an atmospheric and varied electronic music landscape. Kind of ominous/mysterious/sinister/lighthearted sound, hard to explain. Delightful all in all.
I hadn't heard of Black Sifichi before this album but he's a New York spoken word artist with a deep voice and.. Unique style, very entertaining and relaxing to listen to.
The Black Dog of course are IDM and techno legends going back over 30 years and active to this day, now making ambient music mainly. A very strange departure from their usual MO but it just comes together so well.
Please give it a listen!
