I'm working on a tool that could generate all possible melodies. It's just a fun side project to improve my skills, but if I ever complete it I will put it online. It creates a unique id for Every Melody, but only generates and plays it when the corresponding page is accessed. So I wont generate a huge library of mp3's or something.

The unique id for each and every monophonic melody (in the diatonic scale) is determined with the following pseudo-regexp: ([A-G][b#]?[0-9]/[1-9][0-9]*-)+.

This[0] is a video by Adam Neely, who frequently talks about the cluster f*ck that is copyright law with regards to music, interviewing two guys having done this (within some constraints). This[1] is the website linking to the dataset and code that was used to generate it.
