Plenty has been said about the perceived threat of AI to musicians, but the potential benefits are often ignored. Enter Seeds by Lemonaide, a new platform that can generates chords and melodies as MIDI data via what it calls “ethical AI”.
Rather than create a track for you, Seeds is designed to help producers at the composing stage. Select a key or mood and it will use its big ol’ brain to create a combination of chords and a melody, just chords or just a melody. It then immediately spits out multiple musical ideas, which are displayed in and can be edited via the built-in piano roll. Once you’ve got something you’re happy with, just drag it into your DAW and do with it what you will.
