The use of Interactive Evolutionary Computation(IEC) is suitable to the development of art-creation aid system for beginners. This is because of important features of IEC, like the ability of optimizing with ambiguous evaluation measures, and not requiring special knowledge about art-creation. With the popularity of Consumer Generated Media, many beginners in term of art-creation are interested in creating their own original art works. Thus developing of useful IEC system for musical creation is an urgent task. However, user-assist functions for IEC proposed in past works decrease the possibility of getting good unexpected results, which is an important feature of art-creation with IEC. In this paper, we propose a new IEC evaluation process named ``Shopping Basket'' flow IEC. In the process, an user-assit function called Similarity-Based Reasoning allows for natural evaluation by the user. The function reduces user's burden without reducing the possibility of unexpected results.
