How fascinating. I guess this opens the old question "What is music?"
This is all definitely generated algorithmically using a really common chord progression in western music. (Think Pachebel's canon).
So a person (or group of people?) is creating generatively created music that is designed to be as pleasing to the ear of a human so that Spotify ranks it higher in automatically generated playlists which means more plays, which means more money.
It's crappy and spammy but also really kinda clever.
