Searcy (LP) Inspired by “composition techniques used in Baroque music and Serialism,” Fugue Machine is an app that can best be described as ‘Bach in a box’. Including classics such as Bach’s canons and fugues, and Schoenberg’s twelve-tone methods, Fugue Machine can help any aspiring iPad artist create mesmerizing, hypnotic music using these tried-and-true techniques.


Fugue Machine focuses on loops, the foundation of any music you’d care to listen to. Fugue Machine seperates itself from the competition by allowing the user to work with four separate playheads instead of just one, with each playhead going off in the own direction.


The author of Fugue Machine provides a free album composed in the app to showcase it’s potential, as well as 38 loops users can explore and manipulate, in order to help users better understand Fugue Machine and the music it can make.


Finally, as icing on top of the cake, Fugue Machine supports background audio, such as GarageBand.


If music speaks to you, and if you secretly wish that Bach would return to us as some sort of time traveling cyborg compositioner, then Fugue Machine is for you.
