    Forces 
    Algorithmic ambiance set 2004-2024

    Constantly mutating rhythms and sharp digital textures shape the sound of Forces. Forces is the electronic music project of Finnish interdisciplinary artist Joonas Siren. Different live-coding and processing techniques are used to make dense atomized swirls; electronic and sometimes chaotic abstract oceans of sound. Their music has been released on mappa, Infinite Machine, Gin & Platonic, Genot Centre, Conditional and Bio Future Laboratory, and has also been played in mixes by experimental producers like Aphex Twin, Daniel Ruane and ZULI.

    For the cable factory set, Forces will make a special set utilizing the SuperCollider sound programming language and 20 years of recorded ambient/drone tracks on their different old external hard drives. The program will mix these different tracks together in a completely random manner, hopefully achieving serendipitous and interesting moments.
