About
Joel Chadabe and Jan Williams collaborated on experimental electronic music that merged computational processes with live percussion. Their 1981 release Rhythms For Computer And Percussion, issued on the avant-garde Lovely Music label, exemplifies their pioneering approach to human-machine interaction in composition. The work represents an early exploration of algorithmic music and real-time performance techniques within the experimental electronic music avant-garde.
