Instead of calling out the obvious low-effort AI prose and project, I'll take this opportunity to recommend checking out hooktheory for some actual interesting analysis of music theory and songs.
Always amusing seeing software people treating music creation as some algo problem to solve. It’s always the same basic 12 tone, equal temperament stuff (“aha, THE FIX”), strict on the grid, with no awareness of rhythm, modes or socio-cultural background behind the use of them. Their “theory” articles are equally bad.
Am I crazy or is there no way to actually hear wtf this is supposed to be selling??? "Audition stems" goes to a tone wheel but nothing actually does anything??
God I hate this.
Vibe-Coded App About a Topic I Just Learned About, by AI, for AI.
Vibe Theory replaces real ideas with a chatgpt conversation I had for 5 minutes. Access confusing buzzwords, sticky lingo parroted by LLMs, and adaptable blorg zorgations crafted for immediate, slopworthy internet points.
Below the tone wheel should be a "Synthesize Stems" button which generates a list of midi examples, each with an "Audition" button that plays the midi.
Whatever they're doing with snapping scrolling on this site on mobile is driving me insane
Pretty bad on my desktop too.

Gosh, this site wants to charge me 84 cents for some terrible algorithmic music. It would be a hard sell at no cost already.

I'm just waiting for an Agentic AI to hit a writers-block and whip out a deck of Brian Eno’s Oblique Strategies.
Obvious next stage after embracing the whole Rick Rubin’s zen shtick
