Our latest interviewee, Carl Bergstrøm-Nielsen, is an #improviser of #intuitiveMusic, and #composer of #experimentalMusic.

You can ask Carl questions on the topic of both #music and #games for our crowdsourced #interview:

The photo of #KarlheinzStockhausen's intuitive music group (and #moog #synth) is by Lene Duus ("educational usage", please, etc.), @carlintuitive is in the middle.

The concert night inside my installation at KW with @kmru and Okkyung Lee was wonderful. I am grateful to them for participating. It’s always extremely moving to see how music can be such a powerful communal force when the audience becomes one big organism. That’s what I’m doing it for, really. But the last month has been so full of projects that my body and brain have just been hurting these last few days. 😵

I’m curious if any of you out there have recommendations for things to watch that are both entertaining and not too demanding, yet still good and interesting? 😴📺

Just discovered my new favorite compilation of 2025 this week (so far).

Women in Electronic

It's a great mix of Dark Ambient, Musique concrète, electronica. Good stuff, Maynard!

Looking forward to diving into these artist's catalogs a bit deeper.

(OK, it was originally released in 2017; but, I'm a bit slow on the uptake and my musical backlog is looooong(~10k+ tracks?).)

A couple of months ago Discipline Mag published an interview with Andrew Nolan, a hip-hop/noise/industrial/dub artist who recently collaborated with Full of Hell and The Body (under the Intensive Care moniker). With this kind of music I find it always interesting to read how the artists themselves describe what they are doing.

Extending a look at some reusable solutions in #musicGames.

This one is extremely rule-light, and usually to find within #experimentalMusic. Examples include #Signs and #Images by #PeterBrotzmann, or #Etudes by #SharonGal.

There is even a relatively famous adopted child of this category: #ObliqueStrategies, a card deck which was not designed or intended for live musical #performance, but many times have been used like that.
