Musicians and non-musicians seeking a solution to generate 4-minute musical compositions
About MuseNet
We’ve created MuseNet, a deep neural network that can generate 4-minute musical compositions with 10 different instruments and can combine styles from country to Mozart to the Beatles. MuseNet was not explicitly programmed with our understanding of music, but instead discovered patterns of harmony, rhythm, and style by learning to predict the next token in hundreds of thousands of MIDI files. MuseNet uses the same general-purpose unsupervised technology as GPT-2, a large-scale transformer model trained to predict the next token in a sequence, whether audio or text. Since MuseNet knows many different styles, we can blend generations in novel ways. We’re excited to see how musicians and non-musicians alike will use MuseNet to create new compositions! Choose a composer or style, an optional start of a famous piece, and start generating. This lets you explore the variety of musical styles the model can create.
