    Re-Compose

    Music holds the power to reach and activate listeners on their deepest emotional level. The radical wavefront of accelerating digitalization has brought about a major paradigm shift in music production and consumption, with loop-based, bass-driven electronic formats undergoing an unstoppable boom. The I2C8 software, with its AI-driven kernel logic and idiosyncratic user interface, is among the first of a new generation of creativity-supporting and -enhancing tools seamlessly blending into this emerging development.
