f(t)2 / 35Brazilian phonk
E(7,16)
Spread 7 hits across 16 steps as evenly as you can. This is the formula that does it.
The equation
x(i) = ⌊(7i + 2)/16⌋ − ⌊(7(i − 1) + 2)/16⌋
What the equation decides
Every cowbell note lands on one of those 7 hits, with gaps of 2-3-2-2-3-2-2. That is the hook from the first second, and the 808 joins the same pattern in its home sections.
What was composed
Hook pitches, the rest of the 808 line, drums and form.
