  • the first time i heard this kind of music i thought to myself "Hey! I could do this easy!" i never realized this isnt just random banging on a piano until i really started getting into the music

  • Oh my god.

    This is Beautiful! The last few bars are sheer genius. No random generator could create this, at least without external influences.

  • i just got a ad before singing she looks like sex

  • Webern and Hindemith

    ,bad music for these convinced

    followers of nazi ideology.

  • I don't get it

  • That's the great challenge isn't it? Creating music "like" this using some semi-random algorithm... its possible but extremely hard I think but I think you can approach something like this.

  • @00eddie0

    Exactly!

  • @StevenGomezMusic This piece sounds good.

  • i thought id look into noise and ambient metal and rock more and i historically tracked back to this form and mostly anton. i love this work so much i can barely blink

  • @StevenGomezMusic You might like the music of Alban Berg, he and Webern were indeed students of Schoenberg, but the sound of Berg’s music has many tonal-like qualities, which usually makes it a little easier for some to listen to.

    p.s. only fool would say that Webern’s music was strange academic crap, thats like saying ‘New Kids on The Block’ is creative and edgy...

  • @StevenGomezMusic As a matter of fact, there is. Schoenberg and Skalkottas are two composers that use twelve tone that I consider very, very skilled. Skalkottas is among my favorite composers, up there with Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, and Shostakovich. To me, Webern is some strange, academic bullcrap that has no feeling or soul in it. He mastered Schoenberg's twelve tone method and became his best student - yay. Good for him, but it still sounds like shit.

  • is there any twelve tone music that sounds good?
