AI for the future of music: FlowMachines

Scientists at SONY CSL Research Lab have created the first-ever entire songs composed by Artificial Intelligence: "Daddy's Car" and "Mister Shadow". 

The researchers have developed FlowMachines, a system that learns music styles from a huge database of songs. Exploiting unique combinations of style transfer, optimization and interaction techniques, FlowMachines composes novel songs in many styles. 

"Daddy's Car" is composed in the style of The Beatles. French composer Benoît Carré arranged and produced the songs, and wrote the lyrics. 

"Daddy's Car"


“Mr Shadow”, an electro-experimental song in the style of American songwriters such as Irving Berlin, Duke Ellington, George Gershwin and Cole Porter:

"Mr. Shadow"
