Black screen for me with a lot of "Cross-Origin Request Blocked" for resources from domain madeonwmas.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

Edit: seems this was caused by HTTPS Everywhere. Works with it turned off.

makes sense, unfortunately we wanted decent caching of the audio samples so are using http rather than https for the audio files

Very cool! I love Madeon. How did you end up getting this gig?

we do a lot of stuff in music: http://wemakeawesomesh.it/make

As someone with little music production interest, from first seeing the novation launchpad in Madeon's Pop Culture youtube video, I always thought there must be some unrelated uses. The art installation your team did looks great, the first application shows how they could be useful for demonstrating cellular automata.

yeah standing novation was cool... I love how the launchpad is basically just a "dumb" device. And i like lights, and I like buttons... Launchpad FTW

Is there any intention of building this out into a broader music-making tool? I can think of a lot of ways this could be a great way for introducing people to music production in a simple, intuitive manner. It also helps that Madeon is behind this and his music is arguably some of the most creative and well thought out since the likes of Daft Punk

It's called Ableton Live... they didn't invent the idea, but they're easily the most popular software for building and playing layered loops.

Lots of artistry goes into authoring the loops themselves before you ever get to the point of sequencing them into a song. The Adventure Machine lets you enjoy the fruits of Madeon's work in building some loops that work together well.
