Wired Moth release note
It Is Indeed Swinging
Rangga Purnama Aji
A live-coded big band assembled from handmade flutes, toy gamelan, rubber bands and unstable probability. TidalCycles does not tidy the chaos; it gives the collisions somewhere to happen. Free jazz rebuilt as a runnable argument.
How the machine enters
Aji describes the album as an attempt to produce free- and avant-jazz through live coding in TidalCycles. Probabilistic patterns, changing tonal systems and improvised code organise samples he recorded from handmade and acoustic instruments; the Bandcamp edition also includes the full TidalCycles script. No machine-learning claim is made.
