Work In Progress. It’s about mutual desire. Working on a duet with a different singer, but this is proof of concept.

Angels Misbehave

Meteorite (432Hz)

The full moon of November is mostly named "Beaver Moon", derived from the Indians who observed the beavers building their winter 'homes', but -- as well -- hunting them at that time to gather warm furs for themselves. The November is a month to begin reflecting the flow of the past year and already prepare some things and thoughts for the upcoming time. The track tries to musically illustrate that ... 

Beaver Moon

Orchestral Moves (2025) Remastered

Autumn Colour (432Hz)

Lyrics spawned from a silly beauty ad containing (among others) the little phrase "stress therapy reliever" are set to some solid pop/indie sounds.

silken shadows

A little bit of an experiment for me with a different way of using AI. You  chat with the AI "agent" to create and then edit/modify your requirements. Rather than having to use an external agent, rather than creating a prompt and trying it out. Maybe my explanation does not do the process justice but it feels much more natural. Discussing the workflow and the direction of an arrangement, etc; just as one would with a collaborator, I guess. That's how Tunee Hit me anyway. Just for this song, I let the AI engine take the strain over the lyrics. I described  rough draft, how I wanted the structure of the song to work, and the dynamics / instrumentation. I really felt like I contributed.

Let Me Settle Down

This is the first attempt to create a song in Tunee. I deliberately let the AI "Agent" lead me on this to explore how the process worked. I did outline the lyrical content, but did not offer any specific lyrics. I was absolutely knocked out by the lyrics the AI Agent came up with compared to the  plain text story, I had outlined.  I was offered three genres/styles based on the outline and the meagre description I had given. After the process, two versions of the song were provided as seems usual with most software of this ilk. The AI Agent then offered a number of ways of improving the song, as might be expected after listening to a first cut. I actually liked this and had already decided that I would stick with this first offering; I would explore deeper with subsequent songs.  The only issue I had with the song and the process after this first try was that I was very unsure about the title, which I had not specified.

All-in-all I was very happy with the experience and decided to take it further.  Tunee has a free  subscription as does Suno, with fewer  goodies and like Suno does not offer the song for commercial use at this level. Not an issue for me as I do not monetise the songs anyway. I just enjoy writing songs and exploring the AI assisted potential .

PS the lyhric outline , very briefly, was that an aging rock fan was thinking about past concerts and increasingly he was seeing many of his rock-gods passing away. He was remembering concerts attended by himself and friends in his youth.  As I said above I was astonished by the lyrics provided by the AI Agent, probably much better than I was used to. I have not edited the lyric as I normally do. Not to ay there are several places where it could be edited positively. This is offered as-is for the benefit of the exercise.

All my own AI assisted tracks, are free to download.

I have been writing songs since1959 until the present. As a songwriter, I am more than happy with the wide range of songs I have written over the years. But my musical skills are quite limited and the early demos on Soundcloud are of me singing  and accompanying myself on guitar or latterly ukulele. I can strum the strings well enough, but there my skills end.

Recently I discovered Suno AI and the results astounded me. I could finally produce demos of my songs to be proud of. I am currently going thru my catalogue of songs and producing AI assisted demos. I know many musicians turn away from AI but it has a place for me. There is no other way I could have obtained some 300 demos to this level. I do not and do not intend to look for any reward except the satisfaction that hearing my own songs gives me.

I am still writing and hope to have many more years of songs left in me, Enjoy if you can and I would love to hear your comments on the tracks, if the music moves you at all.
