[@MrPolGonzalez]

Soooo... no human is pressing a key hear? Only the machine generate the notes? Can you explain me that? Thanks

[@joyusachoobarb]

@@MrPolGonzalez it's modular synthesis. Look it up

[@bricelory9534]

@@MrPolGonzalez being modular synthesis, there are different modules (sort of a synth equivalent to a guitar pedal) that either generate waves to create sound or are used to modify those sound waves - either through telling when to start or stop the sound, change the nature of it's sound, and so on. One of the features of a big system like this is that you can have various stages in the whole process be randomized (either totally or in a range you specify), so it generates the changes on its own. If you're familiar with the idea of procedural generation in video games, it is a lot like that but for sound. So the human involvement was setting up the parameters and controls, having each device affect others in specific ways and once it has been set up, it will continue to generate sound based on those settings until a human comes in and either shuts it down or changes the settings. In this video, no one is pressing a key or thing like that to make the notes. It's all been programmed, basically, and he is letting the program run for the full video.

[@mk1st]

The machines may be generating the music unattended but it still requires a talented human to assemble them.

[@EP65]

Lot of people still think electronic (dance) music is just 'pushing some buttons'. Ok, being a maestro on a piano or a violin or whatever instrument requires some other skills, but creating atmosphere is something different. Love this stuff. And I know it is not done 'just like that'.

Today I learned: there is a critical mass of patch cables that you can connect to sound mixers so that sentience will spontaneously emerge and it will start generating its own music.

*LaMDA8 has entered the chat* . 🤖

[@Neavris]

I'm pretty sure those are RCA cables, not rj45.

[@desdenova1]

@@Neavris True, but they essentially serve the same purpose as patch cables: signal routing. EDIT: did some research just to be sure, RCA cables are indeed considered patch cables. Pretty much any wire that transmits data or signals (and not exclusively power) can be considered a patch cable. Specifically short cords used with patch panels, those mixers and signal processors being a good example.

[@Neavris]

@@desdenova1 Makes sense since patch cables were used for telephony before the telephone networks moved to digital and optical signals. Have a nice one.

[@shadowflash705]

@@Neavris not before digital signals but before automatic dialing. It's a huge difference. When you don't have to ask a lady to connect you to some number but roll the disc or push the buttons - it's automatic dialing. Can be electromechanical or electronic.

On the 1st of January, fireworks scared my dog off. We got a call from the local shelter two days later saying they'd picked him up that very same day but just didn't have the time to check his microchip and call us. When we got him back, he just wasn't the same. He spent the following weeks deteriorating, not eating, lethargic. He was so energetic just one month ago. I took him to the veterinarian two days ago because that's the earliest I could get an appointment anywhere. They found cancer everywhere. I don't know how he maintained so much energy but I know that I'm grateful for the 13 years I got to spend with him. I don't think I'll ever be the same without him, and that's a good thing. Even now without him, I continue learning lessons in life, love, and what it means to be healthy and happy. This session reminds me the sunrise that day and how excited he was to eat some new food I'd gotten him, while he wore the new neon vest I'd gotten him. I'm still teary-eyed but now have a smile on my face. Thank you.

Hey man I just wanna say I literally have no idea how many times this has rocked me to sleep since streamed last year.

Everything fits so perfectly for such a calm relaxing sleep. I've checked hundreds of other ambient/sleeping/meditation/whatever and literally nothing compares to this specifically here. Other ones fill me with doubt, or other negative emotions but this is the perfect feeling of hopefulness, mixed with a content calm.

After listening to this way too many times, I've finally bought the lossless version on bandcamp. And I gotta say, there are *so many* , so many tiny little details that are lost here on KZbin. Stuff like the sirens, railway sounds, the wind, it goes on. Since I was a little kid, I've been mesmerized by this kind of music. Jean Michel Jarre, Schiller, Pink Floyd, Vangelis - you've earned your place right beside them for me. Please keep up your stellar work! :)

[@emiljordanov]

Не става само с ''bandcamp'', необходим е компресор + лимитер; кросоувър за разделяне на честотите, пасивен и активен; EQ - за допълнително разделяне на честотите, без да модулираш входящия сигнал, фейдърите да бъдат на 0 децибела; филтър за захранване (AH connektor); външно линейно захранване за всяко устройство с мощни тороидални трансформатори и колкото се може по-мощен усилвател клас А. Има евтини клас А усилватели от Китай на Nelson Pass. Използвай колкото се може по-малко интегрални схеми в електронните устройства. Ако може - никакви. Преминавайки през интегралната схема сигналът силно се повлиява от електромагнитни смущения. Слабото звено във всяко устройство са бушоните, защото кабелът на бушона е много тънък. Затова е добре кабелът на бушона да е от злато или позлатен, защото златото има най- висока електропроводимост. Но не използвай сребро, защото излъчва предимно високи честоти. Затова в интегралните схеми се използват златни кабели, защото са много тънки, по-тънки от този в бушона. Може да използваш злато на всички контакти, против контактно съпротивление и окиси. Но никога не използвай OFC, Occ кабели. Слабо пречистената мед е по-добре, защото не звучи плоско и излъчва всички честоти, които са необходими. Ако използваш 99, 999999% Cu, ще умреш. „Steely Dan`s'' използват 99, 999999% чистота на Cu и много страдат.

Don't be so dismissive guys. What are "feelings"? Isn't it ultimately just a term we give the emergent awareness that arises from our brains working? A complex network of neurons firing electrical impulses? And aren't computers doing the same? Now sure.. it's not the exact same thing. Human brains are different from computers. But it's absolutely in the realm of reality to assume that machines can have something you could call feelings or conciousnes as an emerget property. I'm not claiming that his synths have feelings. But it's also not such an unthinkable idea as one might think. We humans aren't that special. Our brains aren't unique. Conciousness and feelings are not exclusive to us.

I’ll play a guitar (less notes the better) through the pedal board and jam over it (Big sky involved) It puts me in the right headspace , vibe. It’s like having a drink before djing at a party It gets you in the mood. Thank you sir. Snow drift is another one ☝️

This is beautiful. Almost an awareness to it all even though you know there isn't. I know this has been explained before by some industry professionals on a documentary or something, but even from this video you can start to feel it speak.

[@NeoStoicism]

We may be surprised to learn about the nature of emergent awareness.

I've watched/listened to this over a period of a week whilst writing and have enjoyed it very much. A very informative use of drone to its fullest effect. What intrigues me is how you can be sucked into just staring at this static object and its magical forest of lights. Fascinating to watch you consider how to close it down in real-time with live commentary throughout. I'd happily sit in a cinema and watch this on 4K for 4 hours. Maybe your next project?! And now it's finished I'll sync it up again.

[@stateazure]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed this. I hope to get around to doing another long session of one of these at some point in the near future!

[@darrenelkins5923]

same here!

[@israelsanchez5779]

I didnt know my soul wanted this. This grounds me,stops me, motionless, it keeps me in the now . Blissfull, for a busy life i got. Thank you for this.

[@airstrike5062]

Amazing. Unreal. Congrats on making beautiful music and thank you for sharing it with us!

[@stateazure]

Thanks for listening!

[@ebrainv]

after so many years of listening to music, i have understood that if I come back to a track/album etc is because it is giving me that something. and yeah - Folding Space - is really giving me the feelings to come back again and again. State Azure bravo man, you breath really fresh air to sounds that are so legendary. the performance of your patch is tremendous.

[@DigitalBard1]

Wow thats quite a setup. All those cables feeding the machines together. I'd love to know what's its all doing. Beautiful sounds as well. Exquisite, I think I'm gonna fall asleep to this one now. Thankyou

[@peltomaanrakettitiede]

Beautiful! Started my analog journey around week ago with small devices, dreaming to have similar setup someday :)

[@aidang4509]

I have absolutely no idea what’s going on here, or how this was all set up, but it’s absolutely incredible. I’ve never heard something that transports me to another place as much as this does. I think ambience of it, and assurance that the soundscape isn’t going to rapidly change like a song does makes it so immersive, really feels like I’m in some alternate world where this plays constantly

[@Lupo9]

I read the description but still can not begin to understand how this works. It looks crazy. Very impressed. I dont even know what a patch is. I just like synthy ambient. But if you were to make a video explaining the setup, I bet that would be super interesting to watch.

[@stateazure]

Thank you :) Unfortunately I don't own this system anymore, I use a much smaller modular system that's a bit more fun and easier to patch. This larger system was quite a headache sometimes!

[@illhorse]

Since I discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago I have created a playlist with about 8 of your longest videos and I've been falling asleep to it with it playing all night 💙 I've done this with loads of vids in the past but yours are easily the best I've found. I love how there's so much going on and it changes so much over time but you hardly notice. I find a lot of other ambient vids are just the same over and over for hours. Yours are a journey. I'd love to spend a day and night with u and ur equipment to see and understand how the magic works. Sorry for rambling on. Lol. But thanks so much for your videos. I love them.

[@shadesofambience7305]

Very deep atmosphere and colur of sounds, I like to listen to this track with field recording sounds of nature in the background, the whole thing takes on an even deeper dimension. Thanks for the pleasure of listening to your recordings. Greetings!

[@GustavoRodriguez-sd3ml]

wow! that's a great idea! taking it to the next level!

[@paulcrisp9861]

When you've found state azure you've found the gateway to a paradise universe. An epic journey through space time continuum so beautiful you would not want to return. Music this powerful could change the world for an eternity. Thank you for sharing this with the world, what an incredible experience. Dec 2020 🙏❤🙏❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@DjShuryUretzMusic]

It's a good format, I really like it! Especially after the board that you designed and wrote the software for the chip starts to sound! Thanks!

[@DarthVader-mx9rm]

I have a supremely hard time staying on task when plowing through mundane math problems for college. My mind constantly wants to jump to anything else and I find myself procrastinating. It can be exasperating to see yourself waste time that you could be using to study. I find this music solves that for me as it helps clear my mind of distractions and focus on the work at hand. Overall has helped me greatly in my studies and i will most definitely be checking out your other work.

[@drkooler1]

i'm just starting a Physics degree and am preparing for the maths module haha. Possible ADHD, cannot focus on many things, especially maths. 43 years od :P

[@YourLovelyMan]

Not to brag, but I listened to this all the way through. And every moment was dope

[@nixtc]

Your pieces are becoming the background music for my house lol (no i don't live in space). This and "fragments" have literally been playing for 4 days or more while i'm studying for network/sysadmin degree and i've been sleeping like a baby. May millions of playlists be created in honor of this great channel :)!

[@stateazure]

That's nice to know! Glad it's helping :)

[@patircksalter]

Listened to this for like 3 minutes and immediately wanted to watch Blade Runner.

[@RCAvhstape]

On a good rainy Sunday with nothing to do I like to put on Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 and just sink into the zone for a few hours.

[@MrCyrilGraf]

I had a same feeling but to play "X Beyond the Frontier".

[@galaxytraveler5779]

Fist thing i thought of was Alien, but probably Blade Runner if i watched it.

[@AldoSchmedack]

The machine makes the perfect beats, but the man designs the beats together. Man>Machine

[@Jazio_VT]

Comfy cozy in an aesthetic I can appreciate 😌 Thank you for the details on how this was achieved. It's very powerful and creative in the efforts of all the gadgets used here. I love it.

[@stateazure]

Thank you so much!
