Alright guys. There it is. Djent has been done. It was all leading to this. This is the genre's apex. Congrats on the success of this momentous experiment, @Dennis Martensson
@ippos_khloros Disagree with the destruction of previous recordings. They must stand as a testament against the folly of mankind to think that we could even begin to comprehend the incomprehensible mind of the god within the code that delivers us this immaculate brutality. Also, gfy. :D
You can make fun of the fact that this is basically indistinguishable from "real" Djent all you want but I also think that it shows that the artists that helped to craft and popularize this sound achieved exactly what they were aiming for. This music is supposed to sound alien, mathematical and like it is beyond the scope of human songwriting. In a way, generating it through an elaborate algorithm fits the (general) artistic vision of the genre more than it diminishes it and this is a fantastic project to show that AI can be a great tool in art if used correctly.
@@axlh.1827 the only thing it says is how mathematical and procedural music is. Those 10 hours play it pretty safe and standard, which is why it's consistently good-sounding. But the purpose of artists is to not play it safe, but make more risky music and expand the limits of the genres. Which is why most music sucks - most experiments fail.
I came here expecting it to be a joke: a random string of 1s and 0s with a snare in 4/4 slapped over it. I was not prepared. I was not expecting every single track to be a banger. But every single track is a banger nonetheless. This is incredible.
Haha, actually it started out as just that, just a joke. Just a generator of infinite 1s and 0s. Then I wanted melodies, then I wanted drum fills, then I wanted ambiances etc.. And here we are : D Glad you like it!
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial Man! I'm actually jealous you've done that! I was too lazy to start worknig on this. That was an idea I had for a programming project since college, when our teacher showed us a music progarm he made using his arduino. Seeing the code, I just asked him, can you add a loop that plays random notes? He did so and said and when we heard the result, he said "wow that sounds like free Jazz!" Though I have zero musical knowledge, I wanted this to be a learning experience, both programming and music theory. Some of my friends are jazz/metal musicians, so they probably would have helped me for the music theory part. I planned to start simple, just a random string of notes, then improve slowly from there haha.
This is how it starts. First you teach an AI to djent. Next thing you know, djentinators are being sent from the future to palm mute humanity with thirteen string guitars in the 40Hz range.
Ahhhh I heard a part at 37:10 where it's a two-four snare but with ghost notes on the 16ths before AND AFTER the 2 and 4, that's pretty unrealistic. The only thing like that I could find tho, tbh.
@@chrispysaid Well, tbh with good technique that part isnt very difficult at all. Listen to some AAL, its very similar in style and Matt Garstka does insane stuff such as that, especially in songs from the Madness of Many album.
@GrapeSkoda @bruhbruh Yeah I know it's physically possible to play, but not something a drummer would naturally do. Kinda goes against the groove, a drummer would need to intentionally work on it to pull it off and it doesn't add enough of an impact to be worth the effort imo.

@Muck jeez, you can ask a question without being nasty. Why are you even on this video if you don't like it? And yes, I do feel much emotion: joy, exhilaration, triumph, inspiration, sadness (in some of the slower parts), to name a few. Have you even given it a chance, Muck?
7:21:25 hands down the best rhythm and lead combination, loving everything about this. I'm super excited for where this goes, and just how far you or someone else working on similar stuff can push the prog-ness while still sounding like music
Guys, if it takes 100ms to generate a song... Imagine that in future you hold only "music generators" per genre on your phone and when you want to listen to some genre, you just open the generator and it will create a UNIQUE playlist for given genre... That's insane!
imagine living in a world where you are forced to compete for millions of hours with a system that already did that a million times over in a second. its easy to see after 2020 the humans don't have their own thoughts or this world would've been burnt down its like earth is a prison for some living being
You should monetize it, 100%. Create a PLUGIN for DAWs and sell it. I am sure many companies would love to work with you and promote it. This is truly great work. You deserve reward for this kind of work!!!
The tiredest drummer, after skeletal reconstruction of his feet and applying life saving burn treatment to his hands, awaking from his exhaustion induced coma says in his dehydration damaged voice "yeah nah that was pretty dope man ahha whens rehearsal?"
This has made me question so many things about music, emotions and maybe reality haha. This is insane on so many different levels! This is what happens when passion, skill and genius coincide. Kudos!
Music is mathematical, life itself is a mathematical reality. Your very passion and emotions exist as information in a certain frequency range. All existence is nothing more than a frequency hologram generated through perfect geometry and mathematics. The person still shows who they are and what moves them through their unique life experience and stimulus no matter what. Just tapping into yet another frequency range.
@@tmmmedia731 mathematics is just a system made by people to help them understand the world better. it works for sure, but its flawed. its just a concept. methematics is evolution, we all use it everyday of course, but i think our lifes are actually more than that
7:14:26 ended up here by skipping through some of it, daaaamn thats a nice and colourful breakdown. Tbh this really shines when it modulates keys or just avoids that open E for a while. And in any case this is such a fantastic songwriting tool man
How to get over writers block: Make your computer do all the writing for you. I can't imagine how much time you have into setting this all up... This is AMAZING and I'm only 5 minutes in!
Yeah, dude. It's sick but also, I'm kinda glad I never elected to go down the really djenty route now, more the old Common Man's Collapse/melodic metalcore route. xD
Ignore this comment, just marking my place in the video while i work on my history essay. 1:08:26 2:05:26 5:55:03 i have finished my essay, but i dig this so I'm leaving it here for the next essay i write. Thanks OP.
3:17:02 My favorite after picking random songs for about an hour. It mixes some more "standard" metal ideas with the djent, making a great balance for someone like me who doesn't want it too technical.
"14. Melancholic Ghosts" from this video and "33. Everlasting Weakness"/"135. Ending Melancholy" from the previous video have almost the same riff - probably due to the same input data which emerged in the output.
3:59:31 why is this too good, damn man this is the third day ive been listening to this i legit cant stop. What an insane work this is. Do let us know how is this makings possible
This stuff is in no way worse than any generic “djent” band heard on Spotify. I am pretty much impressed. The amount of dedication, effort, and skill one needs to sacrifice to be able to do anything like that is stunning. This fucking robot makes better music than me in general, that's pretty fascinating. Try playing with classical genres also, there are them fugues, baroque orchestral pieces (typical power metal arpeggio sequence soloing is from there), and all that other repetitive crap, a perfect fit for procedural music experiments if you want to do something really interesting. You could also try procedural blues, theory behind this kind of music is pretty simplistic, and most harmonies (chord progressions) are just outright standard stuff all bluesmen agreed on back in the day.
Thanks a lot! Worked hard on the humanization. (: I'm looking into it! Will probably make a video about it if and when I decide to put it up for sale! (:
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial Would 100% buy. It's got that really meticulously edited note-by-note Within The Ruins/Rings of Saturn sound without sounding like a shitty MIDI guitar. Name your price once it's there my dude.

I belive the point of that theory is AI singularity, in that it would connect itself to all information flow through internet. So, it could intergrate this programme if it was online and make a djenty playlist for itself if it so chose. looool
Some of the licks and transitions in here are seriously tasty Definitely always felt like this genre is the one of the most "mechanized" that exists, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that it all sounds good
i can tell you are way too humble to accept what youve done here, but let me tell you this is amazing. not to be dramatic but this could be the future for music. even if it is just strings of code and mathematical formulas you really did something incredible here. not only do they all sound amazing, but they also sound very unique from eachother, each of them with different feelings and vibes. the work you put into this must have been monstrous but you have created something absolutely incredible. great job man and your talent, not to mention humility, is inspiring.
This part in The Realities 2:23:33 is fucking sick. I mean, this whole thing is fucking sick. All of my achievements are meaningless in the face of this
Only in the third track, Defeat, and already the timing is unbelievable in how unpredictable it is yet how masterfully it works together. My hat is tipped to the true Guardian of Djent, your circuitboard
Wow this is so impressive. Apart from the overall composition which is amazing, there are so many small guitar-playing intricacies that the algorithm faithfully observes to make the parts sound fluid and human-like, it's just mind blowing to me.
"Melancholic Ghosts" is tech death all the way! Man... I don't know what to say. As a musician-programmer as well, I salute your work as it is truly breathtaking. Think about publishing the generator in a paper or something in the future, because the job it does is incredible! Edit: You’ve actually posted the video explanation already… You’re definitely a ledjent
Dunno, man. But I'm revisiting this one and I've come to realization that I definitely need to drop acid and embark on these 10 hours and embrace them before I die.

5:37 is genuinely one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard.
Glad you like it!
Sound a bit like straws pulled at random for a sec. But the name makes sense finally lol.
@@genericname9875 oh yeaah, first thought popped into my mind when I heard that piece
@@genericname9875absolutely sounds like the end part, youre right
Guys, if it takes 100ms to generate a song... Imagine that in future you hold only "music generators" per genre on your phone and when you want to listen to some genre, you just open the generator and it will create a UNIQUE playlist for given genre... That's insane!
imagine living in a world where you are forced to compete for millions of hours with a system that already did that a million times over in a second. its easy to see after 2020 the humans don't have their own thoughts or this world would've been burnt down
its like earth is a prison for some living being
That would be quite insane : D
@@ShawnJonesHellion I HATE TRANSHUMANISM I HATE TRANSHUMANISM
but these tracks are fire tho
What about the people who don’t want to only listen to instrumental tracks?
@@endocann give it time
This is the most mind blowing thing I’ve seen and heard all year. Can’t believe you coded 10 hours of incredible djent
Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it!
Ih
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial ùY
You should monetize it, 100%. Create a PLUGIN for DAWs and sell it. I am sure many companies would love to work with you and promote it. This is truly great work. You deserve reward for this kind of work!!!
Me. I’d buy it.
Listening to Erra I felt that djent is the soundtrack for our distopian cyberpunk future. Now it has been confirmed.
Haha! : D
Meshuggah: "Mother of God what have we done... "
Hahaha x'D
Some people listen to classical music to study and read, others DJENT. This is the best music ever made for study. It has a brain-opening effect.
Haha, glad you think so!
kind of like DMT
dude how is there so much variety in this, insane
Worked hard on making it more varied than the first version, so thanks for that!
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial I appreciate your work very much!!
Shit is better than the Dadabots death metal machine learning channel
The breakdown then blast beat at 7:08:28 is pretty mind blowing. Can’t get over how good the drum beats and layered tracks are. God damn.
Glad you like it! : D
50:53 So anyways, I started blasting
DEAD
hahahaha yes.
when you accidentally complete the Djent genre. It's over.
Hahaha x'D
loool!!!!!
The tiredest drummer, after skeletal reconstruction of his feet and applying life saving burn treatment to his hands, awaking from his exhaustion induced coma says in his dehydration damaged voice "yeah nah that was pretty dope man ahha whens rehearsal?"
hahaha omfg this comment killed me
A year has passed, and this is still my best background music to code while at work. Thx Dennis!
This has made me question so many things about music, emotions and maybe reality haha. This is insane on so many different levels! This is what happens when passion, skill and genius coincide. Kudos!
Haha, thanks a whole lot! Really glad you like it!
Every song takes around ~100 milliseconds to generate. fook me
Music is mathematical, life itself is a mathematical reality. Your very passion and emotions exist as information in a certain frequency range. All existence is nothing more than a frequency hologram generated through perfect geometry and mathematics.
The person still shows who they are and what moves them through their unique life experience and stimulus no matter what. Just tapping into yet another frequency range.
@@tmmmedia731 what a boring reductionist view of the world. Nobody knows what's going on...
@@tmmmedia731 mathematics is just a system made by people to help them understand the world better. it works for sure, but its flawed. its just a concept. methematics is evolution, we all use it everyday of course, but i think our lifes are actually more than that
This is one of the absolute coolest applications of procedurally generated music I've ever heard. Sounds so natural and composed, too.
Thanks a lot!
7:14:26 ended up here by skipping through some of it, daaaamn thats a nice and colourful breakdown. Tbh this really shines when it modulates keys or just avoids that open E for a while. And in any case this is such a fantastic songwriting tool man
How to get over writers block: Make your computer do all the writing for you. I can't imagine how much time you have into setting this all up...
This is AMAZING and I'm only 5 minutes in!
Haha, exactly. x'D Very roundabout way to cure writer's block though. : D Thanks a lot!
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial actually, you did what all efficient/lazy people do: you automated repetitive tasks lol
bro this actually sounds so good. which makes me VERY SAD HOLY SHIT
Glad you like it! : D
Yeah, dude. It's sick but also, I'm kinda glad I never elected to go down the really djenty route now, more the old Common Man's Collapse/melodic metalcore route. xD
Ignore this comment, just marking my place in the video while i work on my history essay.
1:08:26
2:05:26
5:55:03
i have finished my essay, but i dig this so I'm leaving it here for the next essay i write. Thanks OP.
3:36:08 absolute magic, love those chords and the way the riff progresses
Good find!
yo that’s like a straight up Plini riff
3:17:02 My favorite after picking random songs for about an hour. It mixes some more "standard" metal ideas with the djent, making a great balance for someone like me who doesn't want it too technical.
you're right, it's amazing
Also one of my favorite parts.
"14. Melancholic Ghosts" from this video and "33. Everlasting Weakness"/"135. Ending Melancholy" from the previous video have almost the same riff - probably due to the same input data which emerged in the output.
How the ever-living fuck does an algorithm write such smooth transitions?! What black magic have you channeled to create such djenty goodness?
Many hours coding : D
This is the perfect playlist for 8 hours of answering emails.
Hahaha, glad you like it!
This new Anup Sastry album sounds killer.
Haha, Anup Sastry is god tier, so I have no problem with tha comparison!
This sounds fucking incredible.
3:59:31 why is this too good, damn man this is the third day ive been listening to this i legit cant stop. What an insane work this is. Do let us know how is this makings possible
also subbed btw love ur content
Glad you like it! : D
Sounds like Bleed a bit
What the shit this part slaps
yoo what this part goes so hard
This stuff is in no way worse than any generic “djent” band heard on Spotify. I am pretty much impressed. The amount of dedication, effort, and skill one needs to sacrifice to be able to do anything like that is stunning. This fucking robot makes better music than me in general, that's pretty fascinating. Try playing with classical genres also, there are them fugues, baroque orchestral pieces (typical power metal arpeggio sequence soloing is from there), and all that other repetitive crap, a perfect fit for procedural music experiments if you want to do something really interesting. You could also try procedural blues, theory behind this kind of music is pretty simplistic, and most harmonies (chord progressions) are just outright standard stuff all bluesmen agreed on back in the day.
Glad you liked it! Definitely wanna play around a bit with different genres whenever I have the time! : D
Finally, background music I enjoy but also feel comfortable calling background music!
Nice! Glad you like it!
Man you should sell the guitar library. Sounds better and more natural than any pro library out there right now.
Thanks a lot! Worked hard on the humanization. (: I'm looking into it! Will probably make a video about it if and when I decide to put it up for sale! (:
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial Would 100% buy. It's got that really meticulously edited note-by-note Within The Ruins/Rings of Saturn sound without sounding like a shitty MIDI guitar. Name your price once it's there my dude.
@@DennisMartenssonOfficial I'm an expert marketer and I'll help you market and sell your work for free. Long live the djont machine
Man, how the fuck is this so good? Everything just works. Lots of good harmonies, sick drums, insane guitars. How is it so cohesive. Love it!
Thanks a lot! Glad you like it!
All the talent with zero ego. 👏🏼
BROOOOOO, As a brother of computer science and also djentelman, we would absolutely be honored if you share your process!
Working on it! Life has come in the way this last week, but I'll share some of my process soon! In the meantime, I did add a quick explanation in the comments section of this video; ua-cam.com/video/nBVwveVXkWs/v-deo.html
So good! Would love if you could explain how you did it
AI Djent Generator + The Algorithm = BOOM
Working on an explanation video, in the meantime I posted a quick explanation in the comments section of my previous video; ua-cam.com/video/nBVwveVXkWs/v-deo.html
Also, listened to your music for a long time, glad to see you here! : D
Wow, what a coincidence seeing y’all here
oui
Got a couple of new vids out now that goes into some of the concepts of the program!
As soon as the calculated polyrhythms and formulae eviscerated my hearing, i knew the weakness of my flesh. 🤖
Man, this AI would prolly have a single word plural as its artist name. Calculators.
Meese.
Hahaha x'D
Track #8: The Weak Sorrows intro 23:24 = Bleed
But I like it
Definitely bears a resemblance to Bleed. (: Glad you like it!
the ai became meshuggah for a split second there, i also thought it sounded like bleed
Definitely Bleed all day, but dammit it's hard.
You are an angel
This has to be one of the most fascinating things I've seen so far and I've seen a lot in this place that is the internet...
maann its siccccc
Thanks a lot!
Holy smokes I've never heard such high-quality auto-generated music! Definitely reached the creativity of thought of the typical djent composer
Thanks a lot!
Bruh my face looked like I ate the world's most sour lemon throughout the entire thing. This was absolutely FILTHY!!!!!
If an AI is going to take over humanity, please let it be this one 💜
Haha, agreed : D
I belive the point of that theory is AI singularity, in that it would connect itself to all information flow through internet. So, it could intergrate this programme if it was online and make a djenty playlist for itself if it so chose. looool
Some of the licks and transitions in here are seriously tasty
Definitely always felt like this genre is the one of the most "mechanized" that exists, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that it all sounds good
Glad you like it! : D
i can tell you are way too humble to accept what youve done here, but let me tell you this is amazing. not to be dramatic but this could be the future for music. even if it is just strings of code and mathematical formulas you really did something incredible here. not only do they all sound amazing, but they also sound very unique from eachother, each of them with different feelings and vibes. the work you put into this must have been monstrous but you have created something absolutely incredible. great job man and your talent, not to mention humility, is inspiring.
Thanks a lot for the kind words! Really means a lot to me! The hours I've put into this is definitely a lot, haha. A lot more to come as well! (:
Couldn’t disagree more about them all sounding unique and different rom each other. There are some dope riffs-no doubt-but this is all super similar.
I'm about to cross the 5hr mark. In it for the long haul! Can't wait to hear the next one. I'm loving this project.
That's awesome to hear! Glad you like it!
Gonna play this video while driving my tank, greetings from Russia
Hahaha x'D
3:28:54 human musicians are actually so done. This actually slaps
Wow. This is really incredible. I guess it makes sense that djent would be about the friendliest genre for this kind of thing.
Thanks a lot! And yeah, Djent is really suitable for this kind of thing. (:
This part in The Realities 2:23:33 is fucking sick. I mean, this whole thing is fucking sick. All of my achievements are meaningless in the face of this
Haha glad you like it : D
Don't fear becoming a mere mortal among the machine gods. The next generation will grow up with gods their teachers.
@@hardwareful and we'll be the same as God's when we transcend the flesh and become augmented
Djent always sounded like computer music, and now I guess it really is.
machine music! made by machines we are machineeessss!!;D
feels like listening to all my fav djent bands at once
Awesome : D
The fact this exists is impressive on its own. Let alone how good it is.
Glad you like it!
This is the ChatGPT of Djent. I love it.
ChatDjentPT
Only in the third track, Defeat, and already the timing is unbelievable in how unpredictable it is yet how masterfully it works together. My hat is tipped to the true Guardian of Djent, your circuitboard
Wow this is so impressive. Apart from the overall composition which is amazing, there are so many small guitar-playing intricacies that the algorithm faithfully observes to make the parts sound fluid and human-like, it's just mind blowing to me.
Thanks a lot!
18:40 this is fucking monstrous
"Melancholic Ghosts" is tech death all the way!
Man... I don't know what to say. As a musician-programmer as well, I salute your work as it is truly breathtaking. Think about publishing the generator in a paper or something in the future, because the job it does is incredible!
Edit:
You’ve actually posted the video explanation already… You’re definitely a ledjent
At which timestamp is it?
Dunno, man. But I'm revisiting this one and I've come to realization that I definitely need to drop acid and embark on these 10 hours and embrace them before I die.
This is high key fucking amazing
4:22:24 for example just slaps.
I bow before the machine. Holy shit.
Fuck, this is so great! I love the live stream channel as well!!
I'm glad to hear! : D
This is ridiculously impressive. Can you do an explainer video? I am SO interested to hear about the process!
Thanks! Yeah, looking into doing an explanation video currently. WIll take some time to put together though! (:
