    A melody-writing duo published (on the Internet Archive) and released into the public domain 2TB of recorded audio that includes all 8-note melodies. This is something people have mused about for some time, it's nice to see it becoming real.

    It seems they could save space by leaving out pure keyshifts, and to really make the point a future version should include the sheet music // offer an easy way to index into a melody + play it back at normal speeds.
