We’ve created an application to generate by brute force all mathematically possible melodies and write them to MIDI files. We provided the application with various parameters to mathematically exhaust every popular melody that has ever been — and are mathematically possible.

When those MIDI files were written to disk, they were copyrighted automatically. We have also designated all newly created files (to which we have legal rights) to the Creative Commons CC0.

As such, we think that this likely leaves those melodies open for other songwriters to use without fear of being sued.
