Automated music composition and generation system supporting automated generation of musical kernels for use in replicating future music compositions and production environments

Abstract

An automated music composition and generation system provided with a system user interface enabling system users to review, select and provide one or more musical experience descriptors as well as time and/or space parameters, to an automated music composition and generation engine, operably connected to the system user interface. The automated music composition and generation engine includes a musical kernel generation subsystem for automatically analyzing and saving musical kernel elements automatically abstracted from the digital piece of music. The abstracted musical kernel elements distinguish the digital piece of music from any other digital piece of music automatically composed and generated by the automated music composition and generation system, and serve as a music kernel definition of the digital piece of composed music, which can be subsequently used during future automated music composition and generation processes, and in future music production environments, to replicate the digital piece of composed music at a later time, either with complete or incomplete accuracy, as required or desired by the system user.
