# Signal Music, an Introduction
Signal Music is a series of articles about exploring how signal processing and procedural techniques can be used in music.
If you're interested, check out the first post in the series, where I show [[Signal Music II, Beat and Rhythm|how to create a procedural rhythm section]].

## What is Procedural Music?
What is procedural music? Procedural music is played by a computer following a process created by a human. Something like a Rube Goldberg machine.
I've been interested in procedural music for awhile, but finally have made some headway in making procedural music of my own. I want to share what worked for me, and some of my process.
I will be starting with a series of articles about creating signal music. In other words, procedural music fully sequenced and synthesized using signals.
