How are things going with Sonic Pi?[1] I have lots of fond memories and don't remember there being many strongly popular alternatives some years ago... though maybe I was living under a rock (..and roll).
Feels like more and more of these sorts of things are popping up. For example there's TidalCycles which is a Haskell version of the idea, which also exists as https://strudel.cc/ which is I believe a webasm version of it.
Would be cool if I could somehow constrain a chord to a key then enumerate the scale degrees that I want so I can make some real funky sounds that don't fit the standard Chord Qualities.

Really appreciate the focus on education and a11y with sonic pi - a genuine differentiator
it's still going: https://github.com/samaaron/tau5
Reminded me of bytebeats (though I admit it's a different thing): https://bytebeat.demozoo.org/#t=0&e=0&s=44100&bb=5d00000100f...
This reminds me of streudal:
https://strudel.cc/
https://larkob.github.io/strudel/tutorial/
I've seen some cool demos on YouTube from SwitchAngel.
Both have a music domain specific language, but they differ in essential ways:
- Strudel, TidalCycles and FoxDot are temporal-first, designed for live performance, with code rewritten on the fly.
- Dogalog is a constraints-solving composition system, for offline use.
I haven't tried the demo but I love this idea!

Very neat. Would love to see events for each instrument laid out along a timeline!
Love this! Musically I’m a noob but this I can understand!
Was it vibe-coded or is it just the README? Not a critique, just a question.
Yes, it was vibe-coded, and the author says they still haven't learned Prolog yet. <https://www.reddit.com/r/livecoding/comments/1pmabwv/dogalog...>
I have absolutely no idea what to do with this but I'mma play around with it.
also just pops into my head https://dbs.informatik.uni-halle.de/microlog/ for an entirely unrelated and completely different project that welds time onto prolog
Looks great! But on latest Android Chrome here, the live demo plays two hits then silence.
Volume warning on that demo, lol
