Drum and Rap

Keirzo is able to rap for any length of time with humans of any musical skill level, from professional rappers to non-musicians. Responding back to input phrases, rap, or just single words, Keirzo produces an original rap in real-time along with a groove. Check out the demo below.

One of Keirzo’s current features is to generate a 1 minute composition - a bass line, chords, harmony lines and lyrics - and then play and rap the new composition.

A human inputs three words, in the video below it was ‘music’, ‘drums’ and ‘future’. Audio files are then given to the musicians (or played back through speakers).

Keirzo has rapped and drummed live at multiple performances including:

• Australasian Computer Music Conference, October 2023, Parramatta: Lunchtime interactions with conference attendees.
• Parramatta Lanes Festival, October 2023: Four nights of rapping and drumming with general audience participation.
