Basically, algorithmically generated music is the new hotness. On the one hand, I really enjoy off-putting computer music, so the idea of being able to just sing and have a program turn it into fully-accompanied music is very interesting. On the other hand, I’ve spent a lot of time learning music theory and how to (sort of) play instruments. If anybody can just do it, what’s the point? Weighty stuff. Even the least advanced program on that list is pretty impressive, really. Sure it makes stuff like this.

But it also makes stuff like this, an arguable improvement on a modern-day lesbian classic.
