Ever sit down to play and draw a blank?
You have the instrument.
You have the time.
But not the spark.
Musician's Dice gives you a starting point β without telling you what to do next.
Practice through structured randomness
Each roll gives you a note, a chord quality, or both, chosen by chance β but grounded in real musical logic.
There's no lesson plan.
No right or wrong answer.
Just a prompt, and the freedom to explore it.
What's in the pack
π² 12-sided Notes Die
All 12 chromatic notes β equally at home in any key, style, or instrument.
π² 12-sided Chord Qualities Die
A broad range of chord types to inspire harmony, colour, and progression.
π΅ How to Use Guide
A simple leaflet giving you the basics to start with.
That's it.
Everything else comes from you.
How it works
Roll one die for a simple idea.
Roll both for a deeper prompt.
Play for five minutes. Roll again.
Or follow an idea wherever it leads, for as long as it takes.
There's no correct outcome β only sound.
