Electronic music with a human rhythm

New product called Human Plugins by Mixed In Key is based on Max Planck and Harvard research. James Holden, electronic musician and M.A. Mathematics © Laura Lewis - Electronically generated rhythms are often perceived as too artificial. New software now allows producers to make rhythms sound more natural in computer-produced music. Research at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization and at Harvard University forms the basis for new and patented methods of electronically generated rhythms according to patterns of musicians following fractal statistical laws. The process, which produces natural-sounding rhythms, has now been licensed to Mixed In Key LLC, whose music software is used worldwide by leading music producers and internationally renowned DJs. A product called "Human Plugins", which uses this technology, has now been launched. Nowadays, music is often produced electronically, i.e. without acoustic instruments.
