On: Using machine learning to compose drum rhythms

[dharma1]

Nice stuff, the soundcloud clips sounded OK.

I have been taking tabla lessons from my neighbour, he has played for 30 years - will ask him what he thinks of these!

BTW - Does anyone know of CNN software to train a network for suggesting follow up chord(s) to a progression started by a human composer? Maybe even midi based so that it includes chord voicings?

Any generative model can be used to generate a follow up chord. Of course, you need to learn it on a significant amount of data.

There has been some generative modelling of CNNs but I'm not sure if there's generative ability in any of the existing frameworks.
