We've been enjoying Iftah Gabbai's instagram posts featuring deceptively simple musical patches, that he often provides as free downloads. We asked Iftah to create a couple of his Micro-music Made with Max MSP patches for us to share here. Iftah writes:

mmWmm stands for micro-music made with max msp. It was born sometime last year when I was knee deep in programming one of the most complex max for live devices I have ever worked on, working on very gray and bureaucratic parts of the code such as file browsers and preset management systems. after these long workdays i had a need for careless creative exorcism, or in other words just very dirty programming which prioritizes musical result over code elegance. After doing this for a while I realized that I'm actually making really nice music using just max, and it's also the first time (being a max user since 17 years) that I use it for strictly musical purposes - might seem obvious, but for me - a real revelation <3.

Be sure to check out Iftah's other work on Instagram and stay tuned for more featured patch downloads.

This stuff is so ****ing dope. Going through your patches, any part, is teaching me stuff.

I had no idea click~ could be preloaded with an output buffer of X samples. i can scan a given section of your patching for 3 seconds and something new is shoved at me. amazing job

a core feature of click~ when used in certain synthesis enviroments - and one of the many examples where something objectively important has been removed from a helpfile without good reason.
