• Title: Setting the rhythm scene: deep learning-based drum loop generation from arbitrary language cues
• Authors: Ignacio J. Tripodi
• Abstract summary: We present a novel method that generates 2 compasses of a 4-piece drum pattern that embodies the "mood" of a language cue. We envision this tool as composition aid for electronic music and audiovisual soundtrack production, or an improvisation tool for live performance. In order to produce the training samples for this model, besides manual annotation of the "scene" or "mood" terms, we have designed a novel method to extract the consensus drum track of any song.

• Abstract: Generative artificial intelligence models can be a valuable aid to music composition and live performance, both to aid the professional musician and to help democratize the music creation process for hobbyists. Here we present a novel method that, given an English word or phrase, generates 2 compasses of a 4-piece drum pattern that embodies the "mood" of the given language cue, or that could be used for an audiovisual scene described by the language cue. We envision this tool as composition aid for electronic music and audiovisual soundtrack production, or an improvisation tool for live performance. In order to produce the training samples for this model, besides manual annotation of the "scene" or "mood" terms, we have designed a novel method to extract the consensus drum track of any song. This consists of a 2-bar, 4-piece drum pattern that represents the main percussive motif of a song, which could be imported into any music loop device or live looping software. These two key components (drum pattern generation from a generalizable input, and consensus percussion extraction) present a novel approach to computer-aided composition and provide a stepping stone for more comprehensive rhythm generation.

  We present Subtractive Training, a method for synthesizing individual musical instrument stems given other instruments as context. Our results demonstrate Subtractive Training's efficacy in creating authentic drum stems that seamlessly blend with the existing tracks. We extend this technique to MIDI formats, successfully generating compatible bass, drum, and guitar parts for incomplete arrangements.

  We are inspired by how musicians compose music not just from a movie script, but also through visualizations. We propose MeLFusion, a model that can effectively use cues from a textual description and the corresponding image to synthesize music. Our exhaustive experimental evaluation suggests that adding visual information to the music synthesis pipeline significantly improves the quality of generated music.

  We propose a method for generating high-quality lyrics without training on any aligned melody-lyric data. We leverage the segmentation and rhythm alignment between melody and lyrics to compile the given melody into decoding constraints. Our model can generate high-quality lyrics that are more on-topic, singable, intelligible, and coherent than strong baselines.

  We introduce Noise2Music, where a series of diffusion models is trained to generate high-quality 30-second music clips from text prompts. We find that the generated audio is not only able to faithfully reflect key elements of the text prompt such as genre, tempo, instruments, mood, and era. Pretrained large language models play a key role in this story -- they are used to generate paired text for the audio of the training set and to extract embeddings of the text prompts ingested by the diffusion models.

  We study the feasibility of automatic instrumentation -- dynamically assigning instruments to notes in solo music during performance. In addition to the online, real-time-capable setting for performative use cases, automatic instrumentation can also find applications in assistive composing tools in an offline setting. We frame the task of part separation as a sequential multi-class classification problem and adopt machine learning to map sequences of notes into sequences of part labels.
