How music is created is getting smarter! We all love music and have been making music forever. How we can make great music is getting smarter.
“Smart” often means that technology has been added to something that previously did not have it.
With ‘music’, the term ‘digital’ has been used for the distribution of consumer music in a ‘ digital form ‘ — Audio-CD, mini-discs, DAT and later the revolution of online distribution through the iTunes Music Store.

What makes Song Rhythm Tracks special?

Decentralised Systems are attractive due to their absence of that central authority which controls and profits from a system. The bitcoin network is one such. As a currency, it has soared in value.

One such, ethereum, built on the decentralised network concept to create its platform for smart contracts which have applications in areas such as supply chain management.
Increasing options
Sometimes a new computing architecture is so radical, so compelling, it is hard to see it’s value and roadmap from the start. Think of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) — “in their data centre, not yours” albeit virtualized, and also Platform as a Service (PaaS), similarly with greater abstraction, and significantly, easier scalability. The value, from the start, was business value: Business has driven the adoption of IaaS and PaaS.
SaaS — Off the virtual shelf
The pinnacle from the business viewpoint has been Software as a Service (SaaS): Why run your own email, calendar and office services if a vendor will do that at a…

It often comes as surprise to folk, perhaps because of the widespread familiarity they have with ‘Drum Machines‘ which don’t satisfy in the same way as Song Rhythm Tracks. Midi Drum Machines and Song Rhythm Tracks are two very different products, summarised in the Comparison Section below.
