Functional Programming

Matthias Derer — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 15:45:54 +0000

Lambda calculus was designed to investigate problems related to calculation. Functional programming, therefore, primarily deals with calculation, and, surprisingly, uses functions to do so.

Very nice article to dive into the concepts of functional programing.

Wiedermal Spaß mit Reason gehabt

Matthias Derer — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 22:32:36 +0000

“Back to the roots!” dachte ich mir heute und habe mich mal wieder an Reason gesetzt, um einen Track allein mit den Mitteln, die Reason bietet, zu produzieren. Nach zwei Stunden Spaß kam folgendes heraus. Enjoy.

Unicode – Transmission

Matthias Derer — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 10:24:41 +0000

The new Unicode release is done! \o/

“Transmission” is a story told in 5 parts. All Tracks were originally composed as one track. It is advised to either download the album in a format supporting gapless playback (flac/ogg) or to use a player, that supports gapless playback for mp3-files (like iTunes). This way you can fully experience the progression of the tracks as it was meant to be heard when it was created.

You can get the album either at Bandcamp or on the Tonstube Website. A Jamendo download will follow soon.

Enjoy. Feedback appreciated.
