Awesome idea and execution, quite jealous I didn't think of this!

Agree. Here's an Ambient Sparse one (generated before I saw this one)

I'm specifically curious how much variation there is between tracks -- perhaps we can get more HNers to post?

#4It sounds like one of those recursive ANN things. On the scale of seconds, it's quite good. But there's no higher-level structure. For "folk", this is obvious; for ambient, you'd probably never notice.
The goal for this technology is to beat the two guys who write most popular music.[1] Another few years.

#5According to their pricing page ( https://www.jukedeck.com/pricing ), you can use the track free of royalty, but if you want to actually own it, you have to pay $199.
But this falls kind of in a gray area. If the AI created the tracks, why does the company own the copyright (and thus, have the right to sell it)? In December 2014, the United States Copyright Office stated that works created by a non-human are not subject to U.S. copyright (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_selfie#Copyright_issues ). So, in theory, AI could also own copyright.
Moreover, do they actually check every newly generated track to make sure its not too similar to previously-sold tracks?

Uh, do you think there's a sentient being here? Its just a relatively simple algorithm here (at least compared to sci-fi style AI), the same kind of thing that decides how to autofix colors in photos or do a transform in photoshop.
Dynamic music generation has been a thing since at least the 80s. I think I had an Apple// program that did this.
>works created by a non-human are not subject to U.S. copyright
I'd like to see you prove some silly music generator is on the equal footing of a living and intelligent animal to any court. I can't imagine you not being laughed out of courtroom.

#9The output is interesting... decent enough for an ambient background track! An interesting Version 2 would be a way to construct a song for a particular video (perhaps ingesting the Adobe Premiere project file)... Making sure the downbeats are synchronized to visual cuts, being able to switch moods when the video calls for it, and perhaps even tweaking the video timing to match the rhythm (a Premiere plugin could allow the editor to specify an approximate end time for a clip, and Jukedeck could tweak the length to be an exact number of beats).

#10Brilliant execution! Congratulations!
My Folk song sounded pretty cool, and couldn't help but imagine some video game action that would fit the music.
