Here’s an opera music generator from the same site that I’ve spent an embarrassingly large amount of time playing with: https://experiments.withgoogle.com/blob-opera

The results sound a lot like the techno that Wishmountain (aka Matthew Herbert) was making with household objects a few years back

Doesn't seem to have a lot of … drums?
No hi hat, no tom tom. No "taiko" drums which I realize is a bit broad. "Cymbals" nets me three "percussion finger bells" (okay, technically, I suppose?) and one "percussion drums".
Some snare and timpani…

What do you suppose they mean when they call it "infinite"?
I'm not seeing much description of what the concept behind the project is supposed to be.

I think it's supposed to be some kind of latent vector space where the coordinate maps to the sounds' timbre. So in theory, you can move seamlessly between sounds. But I seem to only be able to snap to nearest sound. Edit: they use t-SNE for the embedding so that is why it is discrete. But if they used something like an autoencoder, then you could have a smooth continuum and interpolate between say a dog bark and a billiards clack.

That's neat. I found a tune that works for me within seconds.
How do I share it?

There's no way to increase the row column count.

Nice! Has anyone figured out a good way to export the sounds and the MIDI?
