77 million songs

is the thing you're playing the music out of just a speaker for the i pods? how do you link all the i pods together?

[LogChopping]

It is an ipod speaker but has a jack input at the back. I bought 3 of those headphone (male to female) splitter things, plugged the first into the speaker then the other 2 into that. Thus I have 4 sockets, which I plug male to male leads into, to go into the ipods. Make sense ?

[robhayley]

where do you get one of those?

[LogChopping]

I can send you all the mp3 files if you like, but then you need either 3 (or 4) mp3 players or a 4 track recording system.

So it's not really a single device at all. But it could be if you knew how to have 4 versions of Windows Media Player running at the same time from random playlists.

I like that washy ambient sound.

If you want all the basic files, let me know. Then you can become a Random Ambient pioneer.

Wow man, that's pretty sweet. Nice idea there. Like theillusivemind said - a brilliant way to create excellent ambience without the need for an artist (Brian Eno indeed!). And 77 million combinations! What ambient tracks did you use?

[LogChopping]

I recorded 30 second segments of music of one note from my synth. No copyright theft involved !

[MafiaGuy76]

Ah, I see.  Well cool. I think you could make a decent amount of money off of this idea, you know.

[LogChopping]

That would be nice - there's currently a bunch of musicians on CCMUXTER sending me their samples.

[theillusivemind]

Ah this is wicked, I love the concept. Remove the hand of the artist in creating the work. Brilliant.

[LogChopping]

We have just become Brian Eno
