Honestly, I spent a good amount of time on it trying to think how to create a video that matched the music I was 'creating.' I also saw myself creating a long song just to play in the background. Cool stuff.

Thanks - really interesting idea. We can already make the exact duration and number of beats work, so it would be a question of lining that up with various points in the video.
You could ask for a naming convention in Premiere -- so that various clips or chapters are tagged with #dark or #exciting in their title, and then Jukedeck would play the appropriate type of music at the right time. If you can't get it lined up perfectly, you should transition the music before the video cut, not after. The start time for a clip is much more important than the end time, so you should adjust the cutoff…
No need to search soundcloud or google for background music for your youtube vlog or intros. It's kind of nice that you can even slice to size right off of the bat. This does seem like a time saver for that market. Either way cool idea!
How does Jukedeck's output differ from Koan > Noatikl ?

Thanks for this - just to check, which demo are you talking about? Do you mean when you create a track straight from the homepage? Because if so, that's not curated!
Yeah, the demo on the front page where you get to choose from a couple of parameters. From a UX standpoint, there's no reason those samples need to be live -generated. A random pick from a large number of pre-generated samples (i.e. a large-ish pool of static samples, for each parameterized setting) will have the same effect, and give the user a much quicker response.
This is a business I know well. Jukedeck is an example of how founders and investors do not conduct appropriate market research. There is a limited market demand for low-cost royalty-free music for videos. One could argue there is an oversupply* of royalty-free music relative to buyers. The quality is not good enough to disrupt the billion dollar Production music industry that is top heavy, a relative small amount of…
I really don't agree. I like the interface and it's simple. I make indie games, but I suck at music creation. As of today I'm a paying member, just bought some menu music.
why didn't you go for one of those sources?
honest question, as gf is having the same problem sourcing music for her channel

What happens if write a program to generate all data in the world? 000000 000001 000010 000011 000100 Do I own every file?
You'd run out of disk space before you even generated "Hello, World". Assuming ASCII only, that's 96 bits. In order to save every possible character combination you'd need about 9903 yottabytes [1] of storage. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yottabyte

At the moment the per-unit cost of per film is constant. But it's not. There's considerable spread in the price of music depending on the quality, specificity, popularity, and licensability* of what you want to buy. * up to a particular number of copies made, or with restrictions on sublicensing or other contractual factors.
per-unit = per-film in this case. You make a new film (which includes the entire range of things from Hollywood films, to pro-Youtubers to films you share with a couple of people). For music you can 1) Get custom music written specifically for your film. This is usually expensive (unless you do it yourself, or know someone to do it for you) but has the advantage (if done well) of matching exactly what you want for yo…
Notes: I'm an ambient electronic music maker (and software maker too). I saw a lot of similar projects since Brian Eno's generative music project. I have been also interested in making algorithmic music (using some AI/artificial neural network schemas), using amazing Supercollider, for a while. I never achieved interesting results, in terms of "deep energy" instead "embedded" when music is made by "special" humans (so called "artists"). Full stop.
Experimenting soundscapes CREATION, in recent years I was back to what I call (along with Steve Roach): "analogic approach": sonic seeds as analogic waves (electro-acoustic) -> (digital) elaborations made by human(s) artist. No MIDI. No "samples" usage as-is. No presets.
I could call the musical secret as a case of human intelligence: "search and discovery" of unknown. Because, this is the point, music is discoveryng of mistery.
BTW, I do not want to enter in the loyality-free / real-time composition topic. So long discussed for so many years among electronic music communities! Good music, is like science inventions: come from "singularities".
That said, an interesting point, for me, is the fact Artificial Intelligence could help musicians to make music. Ok, but this is another story, another vision of what music is, for humans, for machines

that's weird, there's plenty musician out there creating real pieces, with movements and all, and putting them online as CC-SA why didn't you go for one of those sources? honest question, as gf is having the same problem sourcing music for her channel
Maybe it's not good enough for the final product but it could be good enough for testing and development.
