ToneDeF is a software engineer by profession, part-time composer by inclination. He is influenced musically by what he listens to, which consists of hard rock, hair metal, synth-pop, progressive rock/metal, new age electronic, techno/trance, and classics from the Romantic and Baroque periods. It is not unusual to hear tiny shades of commercially successful works within his own humble little ones -- he considers it an homage to the truly talented.

One of ToneDeF's guilty pleasures is recreating the music of classic computer/video games utilizing modern synthesized and sampled sounds. His first submission to SoundCloud was a re-imagining of the main theme music from the classic LucasArts game, "Ballblazer".

Although he has chosen "ToneDeF" as his handle, rest assured that he is not actually "tone deaf".

Who exactly are "The ElectroMetal Minstrels"? They are the virtual musicians "performing" the virtual instruments on each track sequenced by ToneDeF.

Thank you for passing by and listening !

Music is my passion there's nothing else to say, I mainly repost Jazz and Blues Tracks sometime Pop, I am not particularly interested in House Techno Hip Pop,etc.

If I find out that your song in my 'what I like' playlist uses genAI voices or melodies without saying so, believe me, I will slap you hard and of course I will block you!

Unfortunately it has become next to impossible to distinguish between real and genAI voices. So people are telling me, why do I bother? Isn't the important thing that it sounds good? Why do I get upset about the use of genAI voices in music? 

I'll tell you why. genAI voices have been trained on thousands if not millions of hours of human voice recordings and the vast majority of that material was acquired illegally. Many people who involuntarily  'donated' their voices never saw a cent for their vocals and they will likely not get a cut of the royalties a genAI song generates.  This means by using genAI voices you, the so called AI artist, are supporting intellectual property theft, plain and simple. Driving around in a stolen Porsche may give you the attention you crave, but it does not change the fact that you didn't have the skills to make the money required to buy that Porsche yourself.


If AI generated crap-music accumulates on this and other digital music platforms listeners and *especially* musicians should ask themselves if online music production is worth their effort and if they might be better appreciated by focusing exclusively on live events and forget about the machine-infested online experience. For me the answer to this question is clear. If SC and others don't take measures to curtail machine generated junk, I am done here. (31.5.25)
