Howdy folks, I just wanted to drop by to say hello and to keep you in the loop on Generative.fm stuff.
The first thing I wanted to tell you is that I've been working on a new piece that will be released before the end of the month.

2020-02-19 03:33:30 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone, as I mentioned before, I'm getting started on redesigning Generative.fm. I want to give everyone here an opportunity to share anything you think I should include in the next version. Is there anything you wish you could do with Gener...
2020-02-09 17:27:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello again!
I have two things to share today:
1. I just released a new piece on Generative.fm called "420hz Gamma Waves for Big Brain."
2. I'm in the early early early stages of a complete redesign and rewrite of the site.
Hello again. Just wanted to share the current status of Generative.fm accounts.
If you read my previous post, you might remember I was planning on having this done before the end of 2019. Unfortunately, adding accounts to Generative.fm prove...
2020-01-05 23:04:19 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, Generative.fm accounts are coming along! But I'm considering two different options for logging in to Generative.fm and I wanted to see which you prefer.
Option 1: Traditional Username/Password
This would wor...
2019-12-17 21:30:46 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, this might get long so I'll start with a summary in case you don't want to read everything:
In case you didn't see it, user accounts with data sync won the last work poll, so that's what I'll be focusing on next for Generative.fm. I'll keep you updated about the status of that work. I'm not sure what the timeline will be like, nor do I h...

User Accounts with Data Sync
This would let you log in to the site, so your data would be saved and synced across all your devices.

2019-10-17 02:51:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, it's time again for a suggestion thread.
If you could add/remove/change something about Generative.fm, what would it be?
We can discuss your ideas here a bit and if I think they're feasible, we'll throw them...
2019-10-10 01:37:13 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, I just wanted to let you know that the new sortings based on global data are now on Generative.fm v1.15.0.
Rather than making one "popularity" sorting which would calculate a piece's popularity as some function of play time and fa...
2019-10-06 22:53:34 +0000 UTC View PostYou might remember from my previous post that I've been collecting some listening data over the last week. I spent the morning looking through it and have some fun stats to share.
Total Playtime
Just under 12,140 hours

Hey folks. I've got play time and favorites data collection ready to go with the next release, which is step one for enabling me to calculate a piece's popularity. The next step will be to integrate this data into the site so you can see which pie...
2019-09-13 18:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy folks. Since the last work priority poll was a tie between adding user accounts and collecting global data for better sorting, I just sorta picked the one I thought would be more fun -- global data collection and piece sorting by popularity....

User Accounts with data sync
This would add a way for you to register for an account which would track the pieces you favorite and your liste...

2019-08-09 20:51:03 +0000 UTC View PostNow that I have a better idea of what's ready to be worked on, it's time to vote on how I should be spending my time.
Option 1 is to add user accounts so you can actually register and log in to the site. Your data (like play time and favorit...
2019-07-26 02:28:23 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for deleting the last priority poll - shortly after posting it, I realized that Google Cast support and streaming were actually separate topics, and in researching the Google Cast implementation I got so excited about it that I just finished...

I mentioned this in a previous post, but I'll be adding Patron names to the site on the About tab and making it a Patron reward. Since those of you who are already here didn't explicitly sign up for this, I wanted to give you a chance to opt-out i...

I'm sharing this a little earlier in the process than I normally do, so things might change a bit. Either way, the end result will be very similar. Hope you like it!
2019-07-04 00:23:18 +0000 UTC View PostI just wanted to express my gratitude to you after an important milestone. Last month's hosting costs were about $15 and were more than covered by the funding here on Patreon.

Here's a new piece I'll be publishing on Sunday, and a nice long excerpt for you to enjoy.
2019-06-28 20:37:21 +0000 UTC View PostI've been working on a project called Corruption Loops. It's a site which generates a unique 10-second recording of music and then slowly corrupts the data while it plays over and over. You can try it at 2019-06-28 04:28:53 +0000 UTC View Post

Here's another screenshot of the new UI as it stands currently. Sorting and filtering is in, which you can see at the top. Clicking the grey labels will open dropdowns to change the selected filter/sorting. Current sorting options are "release dat...

My next piece changes based on the time of day, with the most extreme differences occurring at noon and midnight and a gradual shift between those times. This is how it sounds at midnight. Hope you enjoy!

2019-06-14 16:04:16 +0000 UTC View PostI took a first swing at figuring out some tags for each piece, and I wanted to send them your way to see what you think:
"A Viable System" - pensive, piano, strings, acoustic
"aisatsana (generative remix)" - calm, piano, acoustic
Hey folks, I wanted to see if you had any feedback on this early work for the new UI. What do you think?
A few things to note:
- I'm not actually going to change the colors of the art for any old pieces, but once the new UI is released...
