Abstract
Computer-based systems, devices, and methods for generating musical compositions are described. A population of musical compositions stored in digital media are each segmented to produce abridged samples. The samples are analyzed to identify 'parent' compositions that best exhibit or evoke a particular desired quality. The parent compositions are cross-bred to generate a set of child compositions which are similarly segmented and analyzed. The child compositions that best exhibit or evoke the particular desired quality are re-cast as parent compositions from which another generation of child compositions are bred. Mutations in the form of musical variations are inserted in at least some iterations and the process is repeated until at least one child composition that satisfies some exit criterion is returned.
