Melodies don&amp;#x27;t get repeated. They all just meander along.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve been playing around with it for a few days now. While I agree that it seems impossible to create songs with a more &amp;quot;sophisticated structure&amp;quot; (for lack of a better word off the top of my head), you still can get better results by fine-tuning, as is always the case.&lt;p&gt;If you just request &amp;quot;rock music&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;jazz&amp;quot;, you get very dull, generic variants of the requested style. But on a second thought, isn&amp;#x27;t that exactly what should happen? You throw all the rock music on this planet in a blender, turn it on, and what you get is the most average rock music there is.&lt;p&gt;If you spend some time spicing up your prompt with flowery language or just a bunch of adjectives, you can get a sound that seems less bland. When you supply lyrics, using square brackets to denote verses, chorus and bridges can also result in a somewhat more structured song, but I found that the AI is pretty lackluster in that regard and you often need several attempts until it follows these inline orders.&lt;p&gt;So yes, in its current form it has mostly a novelty factor, this is Stable Diffusion for music, but I can easily see this being useful for a small indie gamedev who needs some BGM, or an alternative to the YouTube music library. Instrumental sounds fine, it&amp;#x27;s mostly vocals that have this clear digital distortion if you pay attention. It&amp;#x27;s surprisingly good, but still bad.</text></comment>
