minimalist music,

194502

194518

Other examples:

194555

Time to min/max

194558

This seems funny to me because you can do a lot with a little or a little with a lot or a lot with a lot or a little with a little...there sure is a lot to minimalism

194565

ryoji ikeda - data matrix

also there's plenty of yt tutorials out there along the lines of "how to sound like ryoji ikeda" so that's good for newcomers

194580

Pet Shop Boys - Minimal
is ironically not a good example of minimalism! (I kinda love it though)

194665

electric counterpoint is beautiful but music for 18 musicians is oh so long oh lawd

194690

Is the Minecraft
theme modern electronic minimalism?

195291

wait r we gonna get more formats
(yes ik its minimalism but just curious)

195302

no

195314

Tacking on another example:
J.S. Bach - Trias Harmonica (BWV 1072)

195316

if we're talking Bach's canons, Canon a 7 (BWV 1078)
feels fitting as well. crazy how it doesn't sound out of place next to the actual minimalist movement stuff made in the past 50-60 years.

195347

Is it possible to get mod04k in this batol? for the lulz?

edit: i see kleeder's response but my request stands

195375

no more formats, sorry to disappoint! nothing stopping you from making a minuscule module & submitting its render to allgear though. that would definitely be in the spirit of the battle!!

196062
