It's really interesting how it does sort of manage to converge on something approximating the instruments you asked for.  Really interesting process!

My 30 minutes compo track from last week since I forgot, whoops.

Summer Dive 95 (Luna Festa 07/17/2022)

Hi! I've been quietly and skeptically studying machine learning for a few years, and this is my first result worth sharing.

What you're hearing is not AI-composed, it's a cover of my own chiptune, created by Riffusion, a spectrogram-finetuned ML model based on Stable Diffusion. No external samples, effects, or synths were used, just the original unaltered NES chip track (https://virt.bandcamp.com/track/the-buzz-in-the-grotto-troupple-pond) and the following text prompt:

"A rocking latin jazz fusion track, recorded 1960, big brass sections, muted trumpet, acoustic guitar, piano montuno, flourishes and high energy throughout, salsa pop dance, it's time to party yeah boiii"

To create a stereo effect, I incremented the seed and the denoising value a tiny bit to create a slightly different mix, and panned these left and right. I suspect the reason it works is that the chiptune was already written to imitate "live instruments" in chip form. The model is eerily good at inferring the same timbre and performance techniques that I was actually trying to go for. 

In other words, you can now write a chiptune as an "MSpaint scaffolding version" and then turn it into amazing future sounds. I named the technique neurochip, and I'd love to hear other people trying it out!

I'll post a guide as soon as I can get some good screenshots of my process and maybe get in touch with the people working on Riffusion.

Neurochip 01 - Buzz in the Grotto

I'm exploring ML arrangements with more than just chiptune music! I'm sharing this one out of the handful I did tonight because it went past "holy shiiit" and actually made me tear up a little.

The source song was a SNES-style MIDI piece from my Boot Hill Heroes soundtrack - basically the same notes, but with basic synth sounds. I used it unaltered as input, and wrote a prompt: "1972 soundtrack for a beloved italian wild west film about a mysterious stranger, harmonica over orchestra with (baritone guitar) and abundant choirs".

(Yes there are new notes in there. I like them too, and it took a lot of tweaking numbers and specific words to get them to do that, but it will get easier and better soon!)

Doc's Theme (MIDI) - Neural Arrangement

Original composition! I used a MIDI keyboard to play a text-to-speech with random syllables, then processed it through neural synthesis, layering over the separately-processed General MIDI backing track.

Yesterday I figured out how to make Riffusion sing on purpose and consistently, by using a free text-to-speech VST plugin, AlterEgo, as the guiding outline for the model to do its work. The same "realism enhancing" effect Riffusion has on chiptunes can be used on regular MIDI files or even text-to-speech voice. 

That is, we can now make vocaloid-type synthetic singers sound more "alive" in artistically interesting ways.

I have a video on my YT channel explaining a bit more about what I'm up to with all this, in case you're curious. Things are moving quickly!

Flashbeat2 (soulful robot voice)

violin: riya lakshman

scored to & based off of a contemporary dance performance; this piece was written as a 'reverse-choreography' challenge, where normally dance routines would be choreographed to a piece of music, I wanted to instead turn that around and try and 'score'  it while making it still be a good standalone piece of music.
