title: Procedural music generation?
body: <p>Anyone have good book / article recommendation for procedural generation of background music? (No vocals, just instruments).</p>
  
  <p>I'm not interested in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>How do I generate the sound of a particular note on a particular instrument
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm interested in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>How do I generate the melody / score for the music.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the reference to Brian Eno. I'm definitely looking into the ambient/user can ignore type of music. I.e. think the background music of a game. It's there to provide some basic mood, but the focus is the game.</p>
