This is super cool! Thanks for the hard work you've clearly put into this. My dream product in this space (...that I didn't know existed until I discovered your site about 10 minutes ago LOL): I listen to music when I work/code, and I used to loooooove Spotify Playlist Radio (a feature the reason for which they killed I will never understand) because it helped me discover new music in the style of music I already enj…
On one hand this is impressive, and I've been wondering when something like this would appear. On the other hand, I am -- like others here have expressed -- saddened by the impact this has on real musicians. Music is human, music theory is deeply mathematical and fascinating -- "solving" it with a big hammer like generative AI is rather unsatisfying. The other very real aspect here is "training data" has to come from…
The reason is greed. They jump on the bandwagon to get rich, not to bring art. They don't care about long term effects on creativity. If it means that it kills motivation to create new music, or even learn how to play an instrument, that's fine by these people. As long as they get their money.
Interesting that Suno et al miss out on the obvious problem that actual musicians need extra musicians for their own projects. For instance a guitarist will have a track they wish they had vocals for(and lyrics) for and if they could pay for that they would. Literally if you could highlight a tune section in your DAW, prompt it, and vocals + lyrics were generated, possibly different version or harmonies for existing…
i've been occasionally trying to get some usable ambience tracks from these various models, but none of them seem to be able to produce looping tracks based on results so far it also looks like more flexible approach to ai generation would be to generate set of stems/samples based on user description and let them to actually compose instead of producing complete audio (maybe this is already happening somewhere) - in…
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> I can't concieve even the flimsiest of reasons why anyone would ever listen to (or license/sync/track/ ) any of those generated songs once the novelty of "music made by the AI" is gone. Easy: Independent/single-dev operations needing some quick background music for a project (game, whatever)
Also: People (especially kids, students, etc) who want to make music but don't have the technical expertise to (yet?). Obviously these tools don't do everything necessary to make great music, but the barrier of entry to making music is being lowered, and the quality floor is being raised -- and that'll result in a lot more would-be "musicians"[0] creating music that wouldn't otherwise exist[1]. [0] I leave the argume…

I don't see any contact info in your profile, but I have an email in mine. I am interested in hearing more about your process and if you have music for sale anywhere, I like to support electronic artists doing interesting stuff.
I really wish this trend of prompting gen AI models with text would stop. It's really meaningless. Musicians need gen AI they can prompt with a melody on their keyboard. Or a bit of whistling into the microphone. Or a beat they can tap on the table. That is what allows humans to unleash their creativity. Not AI generating random bits that fit a distribution of training data. English language is not the right input fo…
I'm not going to comment on the technical side of things, which is way beyond my technical comprehensions skills, and I'm sure it required a considerable amount of brain, time and energy to reach similar results. But music production and distribution is (actually, was ) my home turf, so here's my two cents on the topic: I've already heard music qualitatively on par with the tracks available on your demo page. I've he…
The benefit of AI generated music is that you can make it for yourself. The goal shouldn't be to get other people to listen to it. It's very personal and that should be the end goal.
Getting it from a service like this is the equivalent of buying an already assembled lego kit. Putting aside ethical concerns (we're talking about the music industry after all, there were none even before AI arrived) is there a viable business in it?
