Practising doesn’t always need a goal.
Sometimes it just needs a starting point.
Musician’s Dice are tactile music-practice and composition tools that use structured randomness to spark creativity, deepen musical understanding, and make practice feel fresh again.
🖥️ No screens.
🛠️ No setup.
🎶 Just play.
Practice doesn’t have to be rigid to be effective.
Sometimes all you need is a small nudge in a new direction.
Musician’s Dice gives you that nudge — one roll at a time.
Designed for musicians - from beginners to professionals
Used by music students, teachers, hobbyists, performers, and composers to break out of repetitive practice, explore new ideas, and turn theory into something playable.
Musician’s Dice exist to reduce pressure, remove friction, and encourage real musical decision-making through play.
>> Guitar Edition includes guided instruction from JustinGuitar
Stuck playing the same things every time you practice?
Most musicians don’t lack motivation, they lack direction.
You sit down to play and ask:
- What should I practice today?
- How do I make this interesting again?
- How do I turn theory into something practical?
Musician’s Dice replaces indecision with action: Roll. Play. Discover.
Practice through structured randomness
Each roll gives you a musically meaningful prompt; a note, chord, progression, or practice focus. Designed to push you just outside your comfort zone.
You don’t plan.
You don’t overthink.
You just play.
That’s where learning and creativity happen.
How it works
- Roll one or more dice
- Read the musical prompt
- Play for 5 minutes (or longer)
- Repeat
Use it for:
- Warm-ups
- Improvisation
- Songwriting
- Composing
- Teaching
- Breaking creative blocks
