in reply to Rain - Musical Composition written with Perl

Soothing music. Sounds nice. Is the beat supposed to be natural/chaotic, or jazz?

Personally I'd be tempted to post the comositions into Perl Poetry, even though strictly speaking, the sounds aren't "composed of the Perl language". But they do sound like strings of pearls.

    My intent was to make the rhythms to sound as natural as possible. I love listening to the patterns the rain makes, and I made my best attempt to emulate these patterns. I used a simple chaos equation for choosing rhythms because I think it sounds more natural than the rand function. Chaos is also very motivic.

    If it sounds like jazz, it's probably because I went to jazz school for 4 years. :) Although I studied electronic music instead.
