This paper Fridge Crisper Bin describes the theory and implementation of a digital audio workstation plug-in for chord sequence generation.The plug-in is intended to encourage and inspire a composer of electronic dance music to explore loops through chord sequence pattern definition, position locking and generation into unlocked positions.A basic cyclic first-order statistical model is extended with latent diatonicity variables which permits sequences to depart from a specified key.Degrees Gooseneck Pot of diatonicity of generated sequences can be explored and parameters for voicing the sequences can be manipulated.Feedback on the concepts, interface, and usability was given by a small focus group of musicians and music producers.
