Black Holes Blues instrument

"Black Holes Blues" is a simple sensor-based music instrument, which allows you to play spacey blues music by holding down and releasing black holes while tilting your phone up and down.

Each of the four black holes creates a different tone from the blues scale, and tilting the device transposes the tones, while maintaining the blues harmonics.


FEATURES & INSTRUCTIONS

♬ Hold down one or more black holes to play its corresponding note, all notes are in the blues scale.

♬ While holding down the notes, tilt the device up and down to alter the pitch.
Tilting upward (towards the user) raises the pitch, while tilting downwards (away from the user) lowers the pitch.

Notice the interval between two tones may change, but they always remain part of the blues scale.

♬ The sound created is a synthesized theremin-like sin wave.

♬ Tilt the device sideways to change the volume.
Tilting to the right lowers the volume of the notes on the left, while tilting left lowers the volume of the notes on the right.

♬ No music knowledge whatsoever is needed to create something that sounds nice.

♬ Very simple and intuitive one-screen interface allows you to open the app and start playing immediately.

♬ This is a full-featured version with no in-app purchases, no freemium, and no intrusive ads (only a small banner ad at the bottom of the screen).
