An idea. A program that can create unique melodies by itself. You basically give it information of what note combinations sound good (CCGG, DDCC, AAG, EDDC) and also tell it what notes don't sound good together. After enough information is given it will generate a string of notes that have to sound good because they are built off the data that tells them what notes sound good.
Anonymousi’ve actually tried that experiment twice :
- song generator i made a few years ago which always ends up sounding a bit samey but it’s kinda nice maybe
- really quick crappy prototype with predefined chords and chord links i made recently (the beat randomization makes everything sounds frankly awful)
i don’t actually know anything about music theory pls be gentle
I made some of these sort of song making things in Processing 3 for a class and really it isn’t hard. You need like, Highschool Music Theory, audio maker libraries for whatever you code in, and RNG to the max.
