Livecoding: Dreamy pianos - Study No 2 in B Minor


Hypnotic piano chords and melodies are layered and phased using cosine oscillators, creating an immersive, wave-like sonic space of infinite, shifting sound.

This piece is built upon multiple overlapping piano lines, meticulously phased out using cosine oscillators. The patterns of chords and melody interact to create a shimmering, wave-like effect, resembling constant fluctuations of sound rising and falling.

The core concept is the careful interplay of these phases, which produces an immersive, infinite sonic space designed to let the listener completely lose themselves in the subtle, yet powerful, acoustic motion.
