24 alternatives to Catchy melodies made with a diffusion-based neural net assistant
I've created a diffusion-based neural net generative assistant that makes creating new melodies much easier, even for non-musicians like me. These are meant to be just the catchy "hook" parts of songs, so more work is required to make them into full songs, but this is already handled well by existing products (e.g. there are plugins that can suggest a few possible chord progressions based on the melody and there is even good singing software that I used without any tweaks to make the “voice” playlist: Synthesizer V Studio). This side project turned out to be quite challenging because of how…
This tool uses a diffusion-based neural network to generate catchy melodic hooks for songwriting, making melody creation accessible to non-musicians. The assistant produces short, hook-focused melodies that users can… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hey HN! I just shipped a project I’ve been working on called Maroofy: https://maroofy.com You can search for any song, and it’ll use the song’s audio to find other similar-sounding music. Demo: https://twitter.com/subby_tech/status/1621293770779287554 How does it work? I’ve indexed ~120M+ songs from the iTunes catalog with a custom AI audio model that I built for understanding music. My model analyzes raw music audio as input and produces embedding vectors as output. I then store the embedding vectors for all songs into a vector database, and use semantic…

Hey HN, My cofounder and I trained an AI music generation model and after a month of testing we're launching 1.0 today. Ours is interesting because it's a latent diffusion model instead of a language model, which makes it more controllable: https://sonauto.ai/ Others do music generation by training a Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoder like Descript Audio Codec (https://github.com/descriptinc/descript-audio-codec) to turn music into tokens, then training an LLM on those tokens. Instead, we ripped the tokenization part off and replaced it with a normal…

Hi all, I've spent some time working on music demixing or music source separation algorithms, which take in a mixed song and output estimates of isolated components (e.g. vocals, drums, bass, other). I took a popular PyTorch model with good performance (Open-Unmix, UMX-L weights), reimplemented the inference steps in C++, and compiled it to WebAssembly for a free client-side music demixer.

ElevenMusic▲102Hi HN! I could never find the right sample for my music, so we built Sounds. A collaborative catalog of free samples and loops, generated with our music model. Everything is free to browse and download, but the most fun part is to generate your own. Every generation joins the public library, so the catalog grows from what people couldn't find.
