Does everyone hear the same unique piece or is the generator client side and random per device?
It is generated client side, so each time you click play the music will be unique to that performance.
Would love to be able to save/replay/share sections that I really enjoyed (e.g. bookmark the seed(s) + offset/range).
Hey folks, I'm the creator of the site and the music on it. I'm happy people are enjoying the music. I see some people are having a rough time on mobile devices so I wanted to help with that. I have found that iOS Safari will mute the site if you have your iPhone in silent mode (there might be a way for me to fix this but I haven't explored it much yet). However, you'll probably find that many of the pieces snap crac…
This is why I don't see "endlessly unique" as something inherently good. It would be cool, however, to play it for 1h (or so), save it and then re-play it whenever.
Listening to this along with the clicking sounds of my coworker's keyboards makes me feel like I am in a rainy forest.

Agreed, and I think that speaks to the difficulty of being sufficiently grounded in both worlds — music and programming. To make generative music that is rich in detail and follows the thousands of conditioned expectations of listeners and that has a narrative arc ("global connectedness") at multiple time scales, you need that grounding, interesting & unexpected constraints, and a lot of practice. I make generative m…
Absolutely agree with all of this. The sonic part comes down to production values. The problem with most generative art is that it's treated as a programming exercise, not as a tool for producing the best and most polished work. It's fairly easy to hack together a music generating system, but producing tracks or output to a professional standard is a harder problem.
Recommend removing “never played” and using something like “popular” on more played. This way new content doesn’t look like no one likes it.
This is great, I paid for a lifetime membership to brain.fm but the app is still broken on iOS. If these can play for longer then 25 minutes (where brain.fm dies on mobile for me) then I’ve found my go-to.
Damn how'd you get that lifetime membership? Seems they don't offer that any more.
