Music is one of the Gardner's intelligences in his theory of multiple
intelligences. How humans perceive and understand music is still being studied
and is crucial to develop artificial intelligence models that imitate such
processes. Music generation with Artificial Intelligence is an emerging field
that is gaining much attention in the recent years. In this paper, we describe
how humans compose music and how new AI systems could imitate such process by
comparing past and recent advances in the field with music composition
techniques. To understand how AI models and algorithms generate music and the
potential applications that might appear in the future, we explore, analyze and
describe the agents that take part of the music generation process: the
datasets, models, interfaces, the users and the generated music. We mention
possible applications that might benefit from this field and we also propose
new trends and future research directions that could be explored in the future.
