Steve Hadfield

If you want a different take on ambient music / electronica for your live event, here's an example of my procedurally generated music based on a live game of chess

New single from No Slugs is out today. 'Do You See?' is an off-kilter electro missive on environmental collapse. open.spotify.com/album/5BVEZ2II…

First song from my new vocal project, No Slugs, is out. 'The No Slugs Spa' draws inspiration from a game I play with our eldest daughter where a spa's selling point is the (current) absence of slugs. And maybe a metaphor for certain political offerings. open.spotify.com/track/615EJnZk…

I've released my second collection of #Chess music for #BandcampFriday - two ambient pieces based on moves from a couple of @Kasparov63 games. Includes a video showing how the music evolves with the moves for the first track. stevehadfield.bandcamp.com/album/kasparov…

@TheBlackDog Very cool project, this. What's the underlying software? I've used Supercollider for generative music from games of chess but not explored more traditional composition using code.

@sulkrooms Our plum tree decided that June was winter, shed its leaves, and is now blossoming again 🫠

@Steve_Had_Music Not been a bad year for spuds. Everything else is terrible 😂

Grew some spuds. Boxed them up.

@journothornhill @werrafoxma I'd love to be involved again if there's space. This year's was brilliant

Any suggestions of electronic/experimental acts that I can add to the list for the electronic music festival I am working on for Derby - the new version of @Werrafoxma Central?

@sulkrooms Likewise

Quite a varied choice on who to vote for tomorrow (sarc), but I’m going for Green.

@BricolageG5 This is so good

Out today on Bricolage. Dark Fidelity Hi Fi “Formations” The evolution of DFHF continues with his most ambient and immersive work to date. Widescreen soundscapes, lush textures, intricate percussion and weightless atmospherics. Tape and digital ⬇️ bricolageglasgow.bandcamp.com/album/formatio…

@TheBlackDog Let me know if you want a fanzine contributor...

Been playing around with text and images, trying to get back into typography and writing. Wanted to do a fanzine/programmes for tBd. Album buff.ly/4dpohJJ or buff.ly/3UsWUFQ

@floatingshrine Second track here is piano-led ambient where the pianos are controlled my the moves of a game of chess stevehadfield.bandcamp.com/album/donald-b…

send me your bandcamp friday music! i'm looking for new tracks for an ambient mix.

@Meansmag Here's some electonica released last week where the moves of a game of chess are converted into midi to control various synths stevehadfield.bandcamp.com/album/donald-b…

It's #bandcampfriday again. Share your most experimental music with us and our community. All genres welcome⬇️

First proper #Chess music release is out today using my generative chess music program to convert the moves of Fischer's iconic game into midi to control synths. Each piece type controls a different synth as the game unfolds. open.spotify.com/album/1oYhGlIO…

@ChessProblem Reckon Martin Short would be a great Yasser

don’t really care who they cast to play magnus or hans but it’s obvious that yasser must play himself
