Jingle-Gen
What it does
Creates a cool random jingle in your favorite (limited) modes and keys!
Motivation
Music theory is kind of difficult. Ear training is even moreso. This aims to provide a tool to help students identify a variety of modes. Or... create a cool jingle!
Obstacles I encountered
Although a front end was written for this project, I ran into issues when attempting to bind script execution to front end button events. I have included the html/css if you are interested in what the UI would look like!
Future Development
Beyond the scope of a hackathon, I'd like to properly write a front end UI. Additionally, I'd like to expand on this to generate songs with chords and logical progressions, potentially implemented with a probabilistic markov model based on frequencies of chord progressions in actual music.
How to use it
Clone the repository and navigate to the directory. Then, run
python soundgen.py [key] [mode]
Where [key] and [mode] are chosen from:
keys = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g"]
modes = ["ionian", "dorian", "mixolydian", "locrian"]
