The Fifth Door Slides

THIRI supplied the harmonic seed. MusicAPI.ai generated the song, stems, MIDI, WAV, aligned lyrics, BPM analysis, and artwork. This page gathers the public artifacts from that run.

THIRI + MusicAPI.ai

What was tested

The run tested whether a THIRI reharmonization brief could steer a MusicAPI.ai generation, then whether MusicAPI.ai MIDI could be reduced back into chords for THIRI post-analysis.

The requested progression was Cmaj9 | E7#9 | Am9 | D7#11 | Dm9 | G13 | Cmaj9 | Db7#11 , seeded from THIRI ideas including chain-of-dominants, secondary dominants, and a tritone turnaround. MusicAPI.ai did not follow the chart exactly, but it preserved the color world: extended harmony, rootless electric keys, borrowed dominant motion, and modal mixture.

Generated artwork for vocals stem A

Stem A

Vocals

The first returned stem record. Its MIDI produced 323 notes and a prototype reduction including F6, F13, Am7, Fmaj7, and Dm9.

Generated artwork for instrumental stem A

Stem B

Instrumental

Instrumental stem returned from the selected source clip. This is the production-preferred branch for future chord reduction.

Generated artwork for vocals stem B

Stem C

Vocals

Second vocals stem record from the live stem task. The live task returned four succeeded records, not the two described in the docs.

Generated artwork for instrumental stem B

Stem D

Instrumental

Second instrumental stem record. Future implementation should select by stem title or type before running MIDI and chord reduction.

Symbolic layer

MIDI and metadata

The experiment proved the useful loop: MusicAPI.ai audio can be pulled back into MIDI, reduced into candidate chords, and sent through THIRI for harmonic analysis.
