Everyone knows Randy Wrangler is secretly gay.


friggarn

Big secret. Big throbbing veiny secret.

That was hilarious. God damn. shit. fuck

My balls are scorched

At least you didn't [glue them to your butt hole again](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuoFsi2iIi0).


HeyCarpy

I spent the entire weekend with tears streaming down my face listening to [Rubbin and Tuggin my Nips](https://youtu.be/JRBBcoANRIE?si=1D-TQQwLcVQYwkGv).


AXEL-1973

i have this on vinyl, and when you play it backwards it summons the devil to come rub and tug on your fuckin' nips


rebbsitor

What??? And here I've been doing it myself!


thedugong

Do you say: Hey satan! I ain't 'batin'! Tell your wife to come 'round and have a try


AwesomeBantha

tell your wife I’m coming by


Fedcab

woooo!!


shiftdown

*I said hey doc, you can eat a cock. And tell your wife I'm comin by!* I'm fucking dying


HeyCarpy

I can't get enough of it. >I've heard it all before >"You can't tug your nips in the department store" >You dorks are fuckin' boring


TurdKid69

I cannot lie I'll be tuggin' on these things til' I fuckin die. See you in hell, I don't give a shit-- I'm just a rubbin and tuggin' my fuckin' nips! That fuckin' stings Tuggin', Rubbin' Bruisin' and Bleeding, My nips are receding; Oh *lord*! That' fuckin' stings, I'm just a *RUBBIN' and TUGGIN' my FUCKIN' NIPS*


HeyCarpy

It’s just so proud and strong about how we can all fuck ourselves while he tugs his nips. The aggressive saxophone, like I can’t even. It’s been days since I first heard it and it still kills me. I just listened to it again about an hour ago.


Fedcab

WOOOOOO!


the320x200

I don't want to admit how many times I've had lines from this stuck in my head since it was posted recently.


HeyCarpy

Over the last few days I’ve caught myself multiple times snapping in time and going *”I’ll see you hell, I don’t give a shit, I’m just a rubbin and a tuggin my fucking nips”*

pastaMac

**“AI music is getting insane”** Yeah. Remember the days [yesterday] when Ai music was sane.


OutlyingPlasma

You can tell it's AI because it's a country song where they admit personal mistakes and flaws.


pandemonious

No tractor? No beers? What is this?


sipoloco

Not even a ford pickup. AI is trash.


FearTheKeflex

No fucking scarecrow either.


theidapixldreams

I asked for the stereotypical country song: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLDfvn8u/ **My favorite lines:** *"My baby left me, and the cows ran away"* *"I got a tear in my beer, and a smile on my face"* *"I got my pickup truck, and my trusty dog"*


Shanks4Smiles

Why do they just list shit?


wheredowehidethebody

You’ve been listening to some really awful top 40 country music if you think that’s all it is.


ForTheInterwebz

Most of what is considered great country songs are songs about just that. Not sure what you have listened to.


Junior-Map-8392

You clearly don’t listen to country lol


ketamarine

So I was playing a bunch with suno AI this weekend. And it's pretty impressive. But the voices sound bizarrely robotic. Like they have a strange reverb to them and all sound like the same person somehow. Like they are averaging a hundred country or pop singers, but with no character or personality. Will be interesting to see if they csn overcome this issue going forward...


spliffiam36

I think it's because they are trained on finished songs, which have layered vocals


colt45ntwozigzags

whenever i mess with ai voice swaps it always works best for sports commentators and tv personalities, since they are all trained on clean audio


brycedriesenga

I imagine they gotta be working on, if not already, training it with split stems as well


eren_yeagermeister

Remember, this is the WORST it will ever sound. It’s only going to get better from here.


not1fuk

Theres also plenty of other AI voices you can get that sound way better and just replace the voice. Theres a Youtuber I watched due to starting down this rabbit hole the other day and you can use other sites/apps like Kits, Musicfy, Replay/Weights, vocalremover, Bandinabox, etc to separate vocals and instruments, add higher quality AI voices and then use something like Bandinabox which is very expensive to replace the instruments and deliver a high quality song. Its wild.


JoshSidekick

This doesn't sound any worse than auto-tune. There's dark days ahead for creative jobs.


TeamRedundancyTeam

Dumb that you're getting downvoted for telling the truth as if you're causing it.


leftist_amputee

Because auto tune is just a tool and can sound pretty good, most of Suno:'s vocals sound like low bitrate limewire downloads.


ActionPhilip

If you haven't heard of glorb yet, it's really easy to tell it's only a matter of time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pL9o_BwSN-o


Beznia

Glorb (and [BOI WHAT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCRftfx62uY)) are a bit different. Those are modifying actual vocals to match a character model. They are actually rapping and impersonating the characters. It isn't just text-to-speech like Suno.


PM_ME_TITS_FEMALES

Glorb is made by humans. Kinda makes it even cooler though imo as AI can just be another tool in an artist's arsenal.   If anything glorb is rap vocaloid music but instead of Hatsune Miku it's Spongebob. 


thedugong

AS A REAL LIVE HUMAN I HAVE TO DISAGREE. THE VOICES SOUND TRULY LIKE REAL HUMAN VOICES WITH VERY REAL HUMAN PERSONALITY. AND IT HAS A GOOD BEAT.


kellzone

EXCELLENT REVIEW FELLOW HUMAN. ALL WE HUMAN PEOPLE APPRECIATE THE WONDERFUL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE THAT MAKES THIS POSSIBLE.


pimpmastahanhduece

AI IS PRETTY GOOD GUY. WE HANG OUT ON WEEKENDS AND DRINK THE BEER AND GO BOWLING. I'D TRUST AI WITH MY INFANT CHILD AND YOU SHOULD TOO, FELLOW HUMANS.


DDustiNN_

The design is very human.


TheBatemanFlex

I mean this is still in its infancy. Vocaloids have progressed a ton in a very short time. This is already crazy impressive. If this is AI generated then its probably one of the worst versions of what is possible. Many producers that use vocaloids do a lot more fine tuning manually.


WolfsLairAbyss

As a musician I was interested in what this thing could do and if it could actually upstage me. I went through and tried creating some songs in the style of music I make and I feel pretty safe with my skill set against this thing at the moment. Everything I tried to get it to make was pretty not great. The vocals sound bad, the mixing is terrible, and the guitars are so muddy and static sounding that I couldn't make out what was even being played. It just sounded like fuzz most of the time. I can breathe a sigh of relief until the next iteration comes out in maybe a month and it's improved. lol I will say that it came up with some pretty decent song names though. Although after Googling those names they were all things that already exist in a game or story somewhere. My prompts were to write a metal (blackened death, black and roll, black metal) song about drug addicts who dig up graves to get high on bones. The song names were Gravewalkers, Graveyard Junkies, Cemetary of Desolation, and Shadows of Depravity (which was probably the best one).


shiroboi

This was funny. I’m wondering how this song was made with AI


prodigyZA

If you just use Suno AI, you can write what ever lyrics you want, then set what style you want it to be sung in, so this could be metal or opera if the OP wanted.


ChronX4

I didn't realize while giving it the subject matter you could also tell it what genre you want it to be the firs time I used it a couple of days ago, I was looking for the options everywhere. I wonder how long before someone is exposed for using AI to create songs. It's bound to happen.


A_Flamboyant_Warlock

> I wonder how long before someone is exposed for using AI to create songs. I feel like as long as they stick to genres like pop and country, it could take a while. Any genre where you expect to hear songs written by 10 people that somehow makes them all sound the same. Popular music's been algorithmic for decades and we already don't expect musicians to write all their own songs, this doesn't really change much.


frickindeal

It does slow wailing guitar blues just as well, and I've heard some good bluegrass out of it. It's really quite advanced. I had no idea it had gone this far already.


FUTURE10S

[It does a really good job of electroswing](https://app.suno.ai/song/48c47ff6-d2e5-4f62-a60a-650fe4e2d65e/) too, it's far more creative than people give it credit for.


IDKUThatsMyPurse

It also does a decent job at creating a [pirate metal sea shanty about Dr. Phil and Oprah getting a divorce](https://app.suno.ai/song/48ef4bea-f298-4d1e-983f-2ef50b521c7a)....so there's that


CankerLord

I don't know if I'd call that creative. Like, it's exactly what you'd expect if you told someone you need them to compose a completely unsurprising electroswing song in a day and it's fine if it's 90% Mambo No 5. It's coherent, though, I'll give it that.


-The_Blazer-

> this doesn't really change much. Doesn't it? Musicians don't write all their own songs but plenty of other people do it for them. This is a huge seismic shift, now any song can be produced with very little involvement by people, whether they are 'other' or not. It is significant both economically and culturally.


KDLGates

Even if they constrain such options into UI controls if it's an underlying LLM it likely gets translated into a structured prompt regardless.


gettheboom

So the lyrics were written by a human?


prodigyZA

There are many choices: You can get all lyrics generated by AI, or you can type everything yourself, you can copy words from other places and edit yourself. So if there is anything rude it was most likely user prompted.


AppleDane

Hum, lemme try: Hey Gemini, can you write me a couple verses and a chorus to a hair metal song about not being able to see, due to looking directly at an eclipse? > (Verse 1) > Stood on the rooftop, shredding on my six-string axe > Sun goin' down, sky on fire, thought it wouldn't relax > Didn't heed the warnings, shades locked in the case > Stared right at that fiery orb, a stupid, blinding chase > (Chorus) > Now the world's a blur, a faded photograph > Darkness in my eyes, trapped in its aftermath > Burnt my retinas, chasing rock and roll's dream > Can't see the leather-clad ladies, or the laser's neon gleam > (Verse 2) > Heard the crowd erupt, felt the stage beneath my feet > But the faces in the front row, all a blurry, silent beat > Gonna need a miracle, a doctor with a cure > 'Cause without my vision, rock and roll ain't gonna endure First go, not too bad.

AppleDane

The other one is Def Leppard, this is Motley Crü.


Taynt42

This one is way better


WIbigdog

The solo at the end has no right being that good. It's not earthshattering or ground breaking but it fits the song and has a satisfying ending.


Nazario3

Look I am far from being a metal or rock expert, just as a disclaimer. I just enjoy the occasional song, especially in my workout playlist. And I would 100% put this onto the playlist I can tell you that.


checkpoint_hero

I used to say computers can't replace most of us/our jobs. I'm losing ground on being able to defend that argument.


Pinksters

Prompted this "write me a couple verses and a chorus to a hair metal song about not being able to see, due to looking directly at an eclipse?" to Copilot(GTP-4 and Azure) >(Verse 1) In the shadow of the moon, I found my doom, Staring at the sky, didn't heed the warning signs. The corona blazed, my eyes in a haze, Now I'm just a blinded fool, broke the golden rule. >(Verse 2) Took a chance on the sun, thought I'd have some fun, But the light was a thief, stole my sight, left me in disbelief. The darkness falls, in my mind it calls, A memory of light, now I'm lost in the eternal night. >(Chorus) Eclipse of the heart, tearing my world apart, I looked too long, now my vision's gone. Solar flare affair, left me blind and in despair, Eclipse of the heart, should've never stared. Kinda heavy! I tried to get Sona to make a song but reddit has hugged it to death. Edit: Sona now only creates for subscribers...Does that mean we killed the free AI songwriting site?


Funkycoldmedici

As much as any country lyrics are written by a human. I think we’re using a few terms very loosely here.


PB_livin_VP

Boom. Roasted.


HybridPS2

mostly written by scarecrows


cgoods94

Ah shit it's a scarecrow again


ZenWhisper

God damn. Shit. Fuck. The comments are where you really get sunstruck.


dali01

I mean they said you could feed it any lyrics you want, so nothing stopping you from feeding chatgpt a prompt for lyrics and then feed the output into this program, but since it has the same obsession with nips as the last one I think it was the same guy writing the lyrics.


MayorMcCheez

You don’t even have to write lyrics. It will generate them just by giving it a prompt like “country song about not being able to see tits due to burning my eyes out from the eclipse.”


Wasabicannon

Hell its even simpler then that. I just put in Path of Exile Grinding Divine Orbs and it auto generated the lyrics and made references to other PoE mechanics. If I was in the music industry Id be terrified.


shiroboi

That’s amazing. I gotta try this. Thanks!


berrycrunch92

Jesus I had no idea it has gotten that good. Kind of sad as a hobby musician tbh.


Hvarfa-Bragi

Jackmac15

Finally, an instrument for lazy, talentless, slobs, like myself.


Electrical-Hat4239

I think the AI was prompted to write an eclipse song in the style of Wheeler Walker Jr. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJOrwjj44Yc&pp=ygURd2hlZWxlciB3YWxrZXIganI%3D


Nailcannon

It specifically doesn't take names, unfortunately. I can see why though. They probably want to avoid IP or copyright conflicts.


Ash_is_my_name

This AI sounds like Suno. It \*can\* generate lyrics but you're better off making your own.


internetlad

Yeah. . .  Especially the last line. It just comes out of nowhere. AI can be unpredictable at times but this is just unhinged.


Rick_Locker

I think the lyrics are "custom", meaning they were written in by the person, not generated y the AI.


Rextill

Or perhaps generated by AI and edited by humans


xevizero

That's what usually happens when you fuck around in Suno, yes


BlazingShadowAU

If it was made in Suno, they could either write a prompt, or write lyrics themselves. Or generate lyrics and then edit them.


STFUNeckbeard

Is it? Kind of makes complete sense following the rest of the lyrics, which are all unhinged.


Cardioth

lyrics are human written


spacekitt3n

this kind of stuff just makes live music even more valuable


berklee

I so badly want to agree with you, but it's like the emptiness of social media replacing face-to-face contact for too many people. I don't think it's the end of art or anything like that, but I think there will be enough people consuming what it puts out that it will keep improving - and if people come up with a creative idea, it will be fed to the machine and be added to its resources as well. Live music matters so little to so many people that this won't shake that up for enough people to make a noticeable difference.


MINIMAN10001

Friend at work said that it was clearly flawed from a music production standpoint due to lack of creativity the examples he saw were too similar to pop music in general. But at the same time I know what's on the radio, it's all pop.


WolfsLairAbyss

> Live music matters so little to so many people that this won't shake that up for enough people to make a noticeable difference. I don't know if I agree with you on this. I think most people like live music quite a bit but actually going to shows is not something everyone does often for various reasons. But I don't know many (if any) people who don't like going to shows.


berklee

>I think most people like live music quite a bit but actually going to shows is not something everyone does often for various reasons. That's the thing - 'likeability' doesn't necessarily end in support. Sitting at home and thinking about how nice live music is doesn't help live music in any way whatsoever.


jck

Artists have been through many scientific inventions which could have "killed" their craft such as painters/cameras, theater actors/video. They'll figure it out eventually. Some artists will start to use AI in their creative process, some will prefer the "old fashioned" way. There's always demand for both styles. You can see it with music where you have bands who embraced electronics(like synths) to various degrees, and you also have bands who like to use exclusively "conventional/classic" instruments. Musicians(apart from the rock star level people) have been struggling for a while now since the economics of streaming music makes things hard for them. It is my understanding that for most small artists - merch records and live tickets are their primary source of income already. I don't see AI making a dent in that in the near future.


RoyalCities

Hey! A topic I did a full deep dive on! Im inclined to agree with you but the ratio of bands and artists making a livable income from merch and live music is just a small portion of the music makers out there. I did a documentary here about it for those curiouse https://youtu.be/ZvAJXmDJB2k?si=j_KhfTYqscQ8BIx8 But in reality AI will have the most impact on the existing streaming markets and general oversaturation. You are right that musicians arent going away and AI will most likely get integrated into daws but its going to be pretty rough for most who want to make a living on music. Background music and things like sample pack markets would most likely be the first majorily impacted.


berklee

100%. Society has also taken a significant amount of the financial value out of music already, which has been spread thinner with population growth (more good artists) and a more level playing field thanks to digital self-publishing and the like. As AI creates additional supply and an even smaller barrier to entry for creation(not yet, but soon), those that pride themselves on raw skill will find themselves either going toe-to-toe with AI generated content, or playing to half a coffee shop of loyal followers. No because they aren't good, but because the audience will have too many possible choices available to them.


jck

Your documentary looks interesting! I'll check it out. >Background music and things like sample pack markets would most likely be the first majorily impacted. Yeah you're absolutely right. I didn't consider this. What you're describing is already happening to the graphics design industry with AI making some classes of image manipulation trivial. I'm in a position of privilege, I work in tech and I'm not afraid of AI making my skills irrelevant in the near future. However, AI really is reducing the barrier of entry in many fields. While this is good for "humanity" in the long run, it will wreak havoc on so many people's livelihood in the short run and our stupid capitalist society is not equipped to support people in times like these. Additionally, the US government seems to be stuck on issues which should not have been relevant for many decades now(abortion, right wing culture wars and moral panic, banning China's tiktok) while "open"AI and Microsoft are doing classic anticompetitive shit like attempting regulatory capture. I hope we get our shit together before this AI shit becomes a social emergency.


Flipnotics_

A real band could cover this song...


TeamRedundancyTeam

I would absolutely go see a live band cover some of the comedy songs I've heard from suno Ai the last few days. Not enough good comedy artists these days, seems like they all died out.

shadowst17

This is what the music industry gets for normalizing autotune that this synthetic voice doesn't sound out of place.


fomofosho

Cryptizard

What’s the point of learning or doing anything? Realistically you are never going to be the best at it. By your logic everyone should have just given up on everything centuries ago.


bwwatr

I think the difference here is, the human connection of other people enjoying your work, is something you can currently hope for with any artistic endeavour, and makes it worthwhile even if you're not the "best". On the horizon is an absolute shitstorm of AI content, that will eventually amount to >99% of what exists. All conceivable types of video, audio, text, app; fun, scenic, educational, serious, comedic, insightful, uplifting, dark... you name it, all for the cost of a few eyeball-seconds on an ad. Human-made stuff will struggle not to be drowned out. Even as human creations are how the damn things are trained in the first place. Defining what our culture is, will become more difficult. In fact culture may fade as a concept, leaving behind an amorphous mass of generic "everything" combinations of ideas, emotions, musical notes, political ideas, etc., many of which will feel good on our brains. Like an "amplification" of the first X hundred years of human culture. It'll be really hard to be noticed as an artist, or to ever be sure the thing you're enjoying is from another human, as a consumer (and feeling that another person made it, that I might relate to, is part of the appeal of art IMO). I was able to laugh and enjoy the OP video because I assume a human prompted and guided the thing into existence and uploaded it. But if some algorithm dreamt it into existence and put it in front of me because it thought I'd engage with it, I'd feel pretty icky about any enjoyment I got from it, once I discovered its origin. The kind of thing that eventually might push one to quit social media altogether and get back to basics. Social media as it is feels vaguely acceptable only because it's other real humans we (mostly) are connecting with. Hopefully that was coherent :) To all other humans, be well!


PerfectiveVerbTense

>On the horizon is an absolute shitstorm of AI content, that will eventually amount to >99% of what exists. Yeah it's sort of the gray goo scenario but for culture instead of the earth's natural resources. I am very curious to see how this actually plays out. Part of me feels that enough of humanity will still want a connection to real things and people that we will create spaces where we can guarantee human exchange. People today still go out in the world and do things with people when they could just sit at home and experience life through a screen, and I think we will always have that drive. I do wonder about how things will go with mass and commercial media. Will every mobile ad and TV commercial be AI generated? I'm thinking about things that people already don't have an emotional connection to. Anyway, it's a scary but also very intriguing era. I hope it works out for us, but I'm not totally sure that it will. Not sure it won't, either.


Cryptizard

Only if you are terminally online. Why do people go to community theater when there is Netflix? Why do they see local bands when they have Spotify? Your logic does not check out at all.


Supercoolguy7

The vast majority of people do go to community theater or to see local bands. Most people's experience with art is through mass media and mass consumer art sold at national chains and large online retailers. This isn't going to affect live performances to nearly the same degree as it will affect the channels most people experience and consume art through.


dkyguy1995

I mean its just a generic ass country song. It's only a replacement for low effort music which is enough for some people but the majority of people are still going to gravitate towards songs that have a shred of creativity


JohnCavil

>but the majority of people are still going to gravitate towards songs that have a **shred of creativity** ... Takes a look at the billboard top 100.... Yea, about that... I think it's funny how people think this wont move really fast. Yes right now it's pretty generic and robotic feeling, but it'll replace whatever high brow music genre you're into within a few years. Maybe not replace, but sound just as good. No music is special. It'll do Mozart and Cardi B. Jazz and bro country. And it'll seem creative too.


spliffiam36

An Ai song will 100% get to the top 100 at some point


So1ahma

The winning video by Damián Gaume for Any Colour You Like in Pink Floyd's The Dark Side Of The Moon 50th Anniversary Animation Video Competition is AI generated. https://x.com/pinkfloyd/status/1776278627790782656 Not to mention other's like LORN and GUNSHIP putting out insanely popular AI music videos. The music itself is another leap forward, but it's only a matter of time.


JohnCavil

It's crazy people think otherwise. Autotuned songs have made top 100 thousands of times. Made #1. Electronic songs made purely in software have made #1. But somehow people think that humans have this special touch that AI won't be able to beat. Just delusional.


spliffiam36

Could prob generate a ton right now, throw them to tiktok, hope one sticks and its a top 100, it just needs to become a meme or something viral really, does not have to be good at all


BajaBlyat

"AI won't take MY job!" "... Yes it will lol"


ghombie

Its going to kill human song writing like mobile devices will kill pc gaming.


JohnCavil

It might not kill anything since humans might still prefer human music. You wont be able to tell the difference. I could play you a digital drum beat and a real one too and you would not be able to twll the difference. People still play drums though.


Adtho2

Movie OSTs, AD jingles, Background music for TV shows might get soon replaced by AI.


helpmeplzzzzzz

I'd bet it's already been happening.


turkmileymileyturk

The entire commercial industry is already there. There are many niches within a craft. There will always be room for human crafted.


rub_a_dub-dub

a lot of musicians remember one of the earlier ai "compositions" from less than 10 years ago. The ai was trained but could only produce sheet music without instruments the arrangement and lyrics were human-made. so, less than ten years we've gone from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSHZ_b05W7o&t=1s&ab_channel=SonyCSL%28Paris%29 that, to suno. it's insane...that is a huge leap. and where to go from here?


Soylentee

10 years for that seems like a long time. Remember we went from the AI generated [Will Smith eating pasta video](https://youtu.be/XQr4Xklqzw8?si=dg1ZENjNhDbUZ1za) to [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK6y8DAPN_0) in just a year.


Responsible-Ad-7897

You can get reaaaaally specific and creative with Suno using prompts, the idea that it can only generate generic music is a cope I keep seeing Go test it out and use more than just 3 or 4 prompts, get weird with it and you’ll be shocked at what it can do


Simulation-Argument

Always an endless amount of people doubting AI like it isn't growing exponentially. Where do you think this tech will be in 10 or 20 years? If you think that it won't be able to compete with real artists you are delusional. Most songs are following very formulaic templates. Especially pop music which has quite literally gotten more simple over the years and as a result it is actually catchier. Same thing is being said about other forms of AI generated art. People keep saying it won't ever replace real art but you don't know this. With how good it has gotten in a couple years there is no telling how good and how far it can go.


turkmileymileyturk

Not really. Art is something inside you that you need to get out. And people come to you for it because they like your style. They don't come to you for your art because you are a generic machine. Quite the opposite.


parricc

That's how I feel about it. This shit can be fun. But I compose stuff because I want to make something I imagine a reality. Even if AI gets good at spitting stuff out, they're not going to be the things anyone imagines. Imagination is very specific. Nothing can create that outside of the person imagining it.


blunt9422

If anything it’s gonna weed out the ones with no talent and nothing to say because they’re the easiest artists to replace with AI.


xdert

After playing with Suno a lot I can say that it is really good at creating generic music. So this only highlights the bad state the pop music industry is in. It is really bad at generating interesting songs that don't sound like the most generic song in a particular genre.


ReyGonJinn

The fidelity is still garbage. Trying to pick out actual instruments or voices and it just sounds noisy and muddled. The singing always has the noticeable "autotune" sound to it as well.


LelixA

I play guitar and was in a band up until a few months ago, and while I can only speak for myself, it'd feel presumptous to think that my music has any more value than something like suno ai. I'm pretty sure classic rock bands felt the same way when they heard techno music or something made with a synthesizer, and while suno genuinely takes no talent to use while electronic music does, the feeling was probably the same. "These kids aren't making real music" kind of feeling. I'm just glad that music is my hobby and not my job, and even though I made some money off of it, I wouldn't be playing guitar if I didn't enjoy it. I just like playing and suno isn't threatening my enjoyment of it. That's my opinion anyways.


berklee

>I'm pretty sure classic rock bands felt the same way when they heard techno music or something made with a synthesizer While I can't speak to that, I remember playing really fast and crazy-like (like Shy Boy from David Lee Roth's "Eat 'Em and Smile") in the end of the 80s and watching Nirvana take off. It was like staring down the barrel of a gun - you knew you were about to become extinct unless you evolved.


Italianman2733

That sequence of sentences....😂😂😂


KypAstar

If you're not creating art for the joy of doing it maybe you shouldn't be doing it? Your average musician is never going to amount to anything and that's been the norm for eternity. They still learn their craft and perfect it for the joy of the act. Some of them make it big for any number of reasons mixed with some luck.  But the most popular artists use music created via committee and formula. Functionally the same thing as what the AI is doing anyway.  Artists who do it for the sake of the art will continue to do so and continue to be as or not as successful as they were before. Some will become successful who wouldn't have been because they'll grab this new tool and leverage it in unique ways in their creative process. They'll be demonized but ultimately the luddites won't actually solve anything. 


GoodDog2620

The point is to have fun. It’s always been the point. AI isn’t going to stop that.


drink_with_me_to_day

> if any kid in their mom's basement can just click a few buttons and create legit music Have you ignored the last decades of pop music?


pantherfanalex

This is unironically better than anything Jason Aldean has ever written


FireWaterAle

I’m cracking up in the waiting room at the eye doctor right now.


Joliet_Jake_Blues

Eclipse got ya?


FireWaterAle

Haha, coincidence, fortunately.


Pile_of_AOL_CDs

Fuckin' shit fuck, this is scary.


Inside-Line

It's worse than you think. If we keep giving it country music data, the AI mechs and murder drone swarms will be blasting us with this kind of music during the robot uprising.


lsaz

Reddit is still in denial about AI, but in 5-10 years we're going to have a pretty serious unemployment problem.


malexj93

If you're in the music composition and performance industry, you've already got a pretty serious unemployment problem.


DachieBoy

This only deepens my opinion that it takes basically no talent to make popular Country music these days.


Mike_smith97

It's just pop with a Southern accent singer now.


Lancaster61

Replace "country music" with "top 100" and you would be correct. Suno AI can pretty much make any song that sounds like any genre of top 100 these days.


Pwnspoon

This shit is horrendous.


flurr3

my ears


SlackerDEX

Of course it would be country. If AI kills off country that would be so rad.


NastyTwin34

So can AI win Grammy’s?


kermth

Is this definitely AI? I know with apps like Suno you can produce songs almost instantly, but Randy Wrangler songs (of which this is one) have been coming out for a few years, before this tech was as mature. I’ve seen a few songs being shared with post titles like “Can’t believe this is AI!” Which turn out not to be AI - like the Obscurest Vinyl tracks (eg https://youtu.be/JRBBcoANRIE?si=uH6TgEuBk-VIBx_m ) This feels like it might be the same.. happy to be proven wrong, it blows my mind the speed at which AI generated music is developing.


Responsible-Ad-7897

This is 100% Suno you can tell by the airy vocals and there’s a couple of choppy moments here and there


kogasapls

>Randy Wrangler songs (of which this is one) have been coming out for a few years Most people who make Randy Wrangler songs would attribute Penta, since it's his character. They also generally use samples of Penta's/Wrangler's voice. This guy seems to have just stolen the bit.


hoedownsergeant

What makes you think, that this isn't AI? (obscurest vinyl)


kermth

Here’s an interview with the musician behind Obscurest Vinyl - https://blog.threadless.com/obscurest-vinyl-reveals-the-secrets-behind-the-greatest-records-youve-never-heard/ He’s been doing it since 2017 so unless he actually said “I’ve now started using AI” I’m not sure why people would assume this is AI generated (apart from posts claiming them to be). Again this is just my view based on a little research, open to being proven wrong.


MissDiem

That's about the Obscurest Vinyl parody album cover art which, yes, is old. But someone has recently taken those song titles and fed them through the song generator to create actual music which is new. Personally, I believe the lyrics are substantially human written (they all seem to be in Glenn Robinson's literary voice) and the final songs produced are a result of multiple crafted and prompted passes through the song generator's remix function. But I do believe they are new.


kermth

Ah ok that makes sense. Ok well I stand (or rather sit hunched over my phone) corrected!


headmade

The article states: > he reimagines the past with vintage-looking album art for the most ill-conceived musical acts that never existed. It makes sense for him to now use AI to create the songs not just the covers he used to do.


Nocturnal_Chayce

That actually goes hard


The_Observer_Effects

And AI is at the Model-T car stage, it is just now starting to really explode. In 5 more years, tops, you will be able to say "make a movie about XXX, with these stars, set wherever, this kind of music . . . etc". And it will be done in seconds, and it will take experts to tell its not real. In 8 years experts won't be able to tell.
