This is fantastic, could we get longer tracks? I want to use this for generating music in our corporate phone system, right now you get a randomly chosen ambient track, and this could let us provide unique music for anyone who has the [dis?]pleasure of being stuck in our phone system. Maybe even a "press * to listen to a new song" option.

I think you're missing the whole point for "ShowHN", which IMHO is really valueable,worthy comments/opinions you should take into consideration.
Actually not. Here are the rules for Show HN: Be respectful. Anyone sharing work is making a contribution, however modest. Ask questions out of curiosity. Don't cross-examine. Instead of "you're doing it wrong", suggest alternatives. When someone is learning, help them learn more. When something isn't good, you needn't pretend that it is. But don't be gratuitously negative. Calling someone's startup "headed for the d…
It's still all in good faith and in a civil tone.

And "real producers/DJs/artists don't use Fruity Loops", yet some of them are making quite a lot of money from it... A "real" musician probably takes cues from other music, other sounds in the world. Why discriminate against algorithmically created sounds?
Firstly, I didn't mention FL Studio at all. Why do you attribute a notion to me without any sign of me thinking so? Secondly, there's a clear distinction between taking cues and reusing a harmony or a melody from another source. People have always done it and will do it more than ever, if they have the right tools. Of course, it only matters if we still think about music as more of an art form than a production of no…
I didn't attribute it to you, but your comment was analoguous to this common criticism of some popular artists today, and reminded me of them.
Similar ways of diminishing other people's work are used everywhere, but are typically a result of being more or less elitist. "Not a real X if you didn't do it in way Y or use tool Z."
For some, the process is more important than the outcome (or just as), but I think it's wrong to impose such opinions on everybody else. Just my opinion, of course.

That's a great idea - can I ask what you'd want to use the resulting MIDI for?
What @m1sta said... As a starting point for music production. Royalty free 100% original is a huge selling point if you know where is most needed. The market for a tool like this is decent sized, specially for Electronic Music. You could also bake the technology in a VSTi or AU (although the webapp a la beatport might be much better), or even license the technology to big players in the music production space, like A…
Hey @joeyspn - we might be able to get you the MIDI. Any chance you could email me at hello at [our company name] dot com?

Not OP but I second this request. For a composer generated music can be a fantastic starting place. I'd love to be contacted if/when such a feature was added.
Hey @m1sta_ - as I said to @joeyspn, we might be able to get you the MIDI! Could you email me at hello at [our company name] dot com?

I'm glad you like it on the scale of seconds! Higher-level structure is definitely a challenge, and is something we're working on.
Your electronic offerings are OK. While I'm skeptical about your business model, as it stands, one possible pivot would be to pitch it at musicians as a dynamic arrangement/compositional tool. I would very much like to try it with MIDI output, as I personally enjoy tweaking synths and effects more than the compositional tasks of harmonizing melodies etc.
Hey @anigbrowl - great to hear. We can get you the MIDI - could you email me at hello at [our company name] dot com?
