eerrffuunn / music_gen

generates music (midi files) using a Tensorflow RNN

tensorflow-music-generator

generates music (midi files) using a Tensorflow RNN

Overview

Use TensorFlow to generate short sequences of music with a Restricted Boltzmann Machine.

Dependencies

• Tensorflow
• pandas
• numpy
• msgpack-python
• glob2
• tqdm
• python-midi

Use pip to install any missing dependencies (pip install --upgrade ... )

Dependencies on Windows with python3

    pip3 install pandas
    pip3 install msgpack-python
    pip3 install numpy
    pip3 install glob2
    pip3 install tqdm
    pip3 install py-midi

Basic Usage

To train the model and create music, simply clone this directory and run

python rbm_chords.py

The training data goes in the pop_music_midi folder. You have to use MIDI files. You can find some here. I have already added pop songs. Training will take 5-10 minutes on a modern laptop. The output will be a collection of midi files.
