#23Many thanks for this joyous thing. I tried a few different prompts and always got something weird and interesting, but never quite what I wanted:
Firstly, with temperature set to 2:
“Amen break with a bag of spanners” (140 bpm): If the amen break is in there, I can’t tell. There does seem to be a kind of harp/bell thing doing the melody, though.
“John Bonham with kettle drums” (90 bpm): Lots of guitar, subdued drums, but could definitely be late-period Zeppelin. Variation 2 is the exception: Zep at the start and end, long pause in the middle so John can drag his sticks along a LEGO oil tanker.
“John Bonham with kettle drums and angry cat” (90 bpm): We are now inside the oil tanker.
Now setting the temperature to 1:
“Hardfloor in Luton Primark” (90 bpm): The bpm setting was an accidental leftover from the previous experiment, and the result sounds much more Primark than Hardfloor.
“Portishead at cheezy funfair” (110 bpm): It’s a very folk-y funfair. Accordions? Organs? What the hell?
Hours of fun! Again, many thanks!

Ahaha... granted. Upvoting this even though I still groove to old Phuture tracks.
I could see where it would be much more simple for an "AI" to generate a techno sound compared to something more melodic. I tried getting it to make things, and just had no luck with anything that sounded close to what was being requested. Some of it had a beat, but I don't think I could dance to it (can't tell since it's not actually loopable), so I gave it a 2

#25Yep... Everything I tried didn't work.... Only altered the BPM and text prompt...
Perhaps it's getting hugged to death...
