Huge chords progressions dataset and chords texturing AI model

[asigalov61]

Hey @ldrolez and free-midi-chords community!

I wanted to invite all who are interested to check out my new chords progressions dataset and chords texturing AI model.

I think many of you will find it useful and interesting, especially if you are into MIR or chords progressions.

Here are the links:

Some info FYI:

1. The chords progressions dataset contains unique (aka de-duped) chords progressions without repeating chords and only if it matched the target lengths (i.e. 12 unique chords or 8 unique chords, etc.).

2. Chords texturing transformer AI model can be used for generating sketches/drafts of the composition based on its chords. Unfortunately, due to limitations of AI technology, it may not always produce good results so keep that in mind.

I am fascinated by chords and chords progressions among other musical elements because of its complexity and numerical size. By my estimates an 8-chord progression has 320^8 (over quintillion) possible combinations, which is mind boggling and very humbling IMHO. So even my dataset is a just a tiny drop in the ocean of music/chords.

Any feedback or suggestions would be very much appreciated :)

Sincerely,

Alex

Pretty incredible work, well done!

@ldrolez Thank you very much :)

Have you had a chance to look into intervals-to-free-midi-chords notation converter? I would be happy to assist in making one if you need help with that.

I found this and adopted it for my toolkit (maybe it will be useful):

I recently improved the rhythm generator of c2m.py to create chord progressions with more interesting rhythms. I want to enhance this rhythmic aspect in my chord pack, and it's possible that 'Texturing' it could add real value.

@ldrolez Sounds very interesting. I can actually make a custom texturing AI model for your free-midi-chords project. So let me know if you want to colab some time.
