Disorder in the Orchestra

A few weeks back I did Muzakal Flourish where I mentioned using a random automator to choose instruments, so naturally the next logical step would be to use a random automator to change instruments. So I did. It's interesting, like having an orchestra of a great many members each playing at most two notes or so. It'll also sound completely different every time you record it.
I also added a piano track with what I'm starting to feel is my sorta thing, a kind of mix between black midi and genuine piano play; sort of like Conlon Nancarrow, but more structured (I might get more into that at some point). So gray midi, not quite filling the staff with notes, but definitely something you'd need a computer or at least two people to play (see also MMM).
So I guess look out for more of that, I might explain in music theoretical reasons why I dig it.
