"randomized chords" Im all about the experimentation. Chords I personally feel have "trapped" us from evolving. <
Most music discussed on 313 stays within the same key for the whole track. If you have music within the same key then you are inevitably going to go through a circle of chords within that key whether thay are played explicitly by one instrument (say a piano sound) or hinted at by a combination of bass and lead lines. Even if key changes occur constantly within a piece (as in Be-Bop, for example) interaction between Bass and say, trumpet still suggests a chord line, as you can hear, for example when a Pianist joins in with a Be-Bop trio of Bass, Trumpet and Drums. Basically, if you have 3 different notes together, whatever those notes are you have a chord. Even 2 notes together are enough to suggest a chord. So trying to get rid of chords from your music will be pretty hard unless you start making 'Music Concrete' or other experimental stuff. Matt.
