Free Windows Music Software: Synthgeek has introduced a free glitch music plugin for Windows, sg-glitchgate.
Description:
SG-Glitchgate is basically a rhythmic gate, but not set up in the standard way. There are two periodic gates which can be used for anything from regular rhythmic chopping to random rhythmic manipulations and strange dropouts.
The gates are followed by a delay unit designed to enhance the glitchiness- it does not sync to tempo, and the delay time and gain can be randomized. There are 5 LFOs to add to the fun.
Several presets are included to give you an idea of how things work.
If you give SG-Glitchgate a try, leave a comment with your thoughts!
Could you score a piece of music with 140 characters or less?
Supercollider 140 is a free album of Twitter music – audio pieces composed of Twitter-sized snippets of SuperCollider code.
It started as a curious project, when live coding enthusiast and Toplap member Dan Stowell started tweeting tiny snippets of musical code using SuperCollider. Pleasantly surprised by the reaction, and “not wanting this stuff to vanish into the ether” he has recently collated the best pieces into a special download for The Wire’s online readership here.
Many of these pieces are actually generative, so if you re-run the source code (the track titles) you get a new piece of music.
The compositions are self-referentially named, with titles like:
{LocalOut.ar(a=CombN.ar(BPF.ar(LocalIn.ar(2)
*7.5+Saw.ar([32,33],0.2),2**LFNoise0.kr(4/3,4)*
300,0.1).distort,2,2,40));a}.play//#supercollider
Tweet that and put it in your SuperCollider!
You can preview the album below, or download it at the Internet Archive:
Detailed artist biographies for the composers are available at The Wire.

Modeselektor – Deboutonner
Bruno Levy took thousands of photographs in Patan, Nepal over the course of a week using flashlights and long exposures.
After getting the nod from Modeselektor and BPtich Control, he created a stop-motion narrative synched to Deboutonner.
