A bit late to the party, but I wrote a generator for a project last year running on vanilla JS with a simple HTML front end. There is no recording feature, but I'm sure you could just record the playback externally.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

We deliver a demo first. Clients can then request any changes before we lock it in as final. Clients can also send links to music they like and we try to achieve a similar sound. It's a good point though - we work on a small scale now. We haven't thought through all the details once we start taking new clients. One free revision seems like our most likely approach.

If you have to employ composers, why do you need AI? I’m guessing you can hire 3 composers for the salary of a single ML engineer.

I'll hazard it's because they can produce more volume if they're just doing corrections and syncing

at the suggestion of another user, I changed hosts to github pages, rather than a shady web-host.

Hi HN. There is cool app that lets you do just that, it's called Lonofi. They are currently in open Beta test and you can check them out here on https://home.lonofi.com

It works sligtly differently than the other AI music website:instead of just choosing a style an pressing play to get random music, here you actually choose the sounds and instruments you want to hear, and an AI mix them together intelligently to create an ambiance that play forever without repeating itself.

Given it's AI, it's all royalty free. The download function isn't available now, but if you create a scene and want to download it, just ask the guys, they will let you do it for free at the moment (in exchange for a good review) .

What you want is a plain old music generator app. Search for "generative music". Drop the Ai, it's overkill. Also with the amazing tech these days anyone can be a musician. It's basically push-botton. Bloom on the iOs app store. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bloom/id292792586 Someone's cloned Bloom: https://github.com/generative-music/blossom Wotja too maybe. Here's their FAQ about rights: https://intermorphic.com/wo…

>Also with the amazing tech these days anyone can be a musician. If they’re musicians, George Jetson ran a factory.

I understand your point. Yes, push button music is a scourge ;)

Though, let's draw a line between someone who can make music for unobtrusive background applications (like OP) and someone who can make music for entertaining lots of people, perform it in person, and do both for decades while keeping a high level of quality (like Bruce Springsteen or Björk).
