Hope Sandoval And The Warm Inventions — Charlotte

This concept was introduced to me by Elon Musk on Twitter.

[Verse 1]
I was sittin’ one night, starin’ up at the sky,
Wonderin’ why no aliens swing by.
Are they hiding away or just too shy?
Or did they all never reach for the sky?

[Pre-Chorus]
Then Elon Musk said, "Let me clue you in...
"There’s a reason no Martians come crashin’ in!"
I said, "What’s the deal? Where did they go?"
He smiled and said, "Well, here’s what we know..."

[Chorus]
Oh, it’s the Great Filter, keepin’ folks away,
Maybe they exploded and got blown away!
Did they make it to land and come out of the sea?
Or never get past the one-cell amoebae?

[Verse 2]
Maybe life out there is stuck in the gloom,
Never quite made it to me or to you.
Or maybe they built robots, got lazy and fat,
Then the bots took over, and then that was that!

[Pre-Chorus]
So are we the first, or are we next?
Are we cosmic winners, or a failed test?
Will we spread to the stars or meet our doom?
Or just sit here watching cat vids on Zoom?

[Chorus]
Oh, it’s the Great Filter, keepin’ folks away,
Maybe they exploded and got blown away!
Did they make it to land and come out of the sea?
Or never get past the one-cell amoebae?

[Bridge]
Maybe space is just too wide,
Too hard to cross, too tough to ride.
Or maybe the aliens are out there near…
Took one look at Earth and said "Nope, not here!"

[Outro]
So I’ll sit right down with my radio set,
Hoping to catch some cosmic text.
And if they’re out there, hope they say "hi"
And not, "you folks are boring, we're passing you by".

AI Collective - Fermi's Great Filter

I remember the day
I almost drowned
Washed out on the shore
Just seeing
The light and noise in my mouth
Blurry eyes
I feel like I died, that part of mine was oceans apart
Blurry eyes
I feel like I died, that part of mine was oceans apart
Was oceans apart
Was oceans apart

One step, two steps closer
I'm not giving in
Head to toe in water
I'll just let it in
Fright is just my soldier to defend from pain
One step, two steps closer
Can I let you in, let you in
One step, two steps closer
I'm not giving in
Head to toe in water, I'll just let it in
Fright is just my soldier to defend from pain
One step, two steps closer
Can I let you in
Can I let you in
Can I let you in, let you in

Watch out for deep waters
Cause, baby, you may drown
Free-falling
Don't be hesitant
Keep up with the petals
Falling down your hands
Deep waters, deep waters
Did I let you in?

She loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
He loves me not

Watch out for deep waters
Cause, baby, you may drown
Rush in with your lover
Just don't let her drown

She loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
He loves me not

deep waters

Destruction Of The Disgusting Ugly Hate

Hi all, so from 2016 to 2024 I assembled and produced a large collection of covers of many of my favorite tunes as my own hobby (and many during COVID lock-downs!) and I have accumulated over 3,000,000 plays across the world which is awesome!

I am much more of a producer that a musician. These first 8 years of my music was mostly based on midi cover tracks often downloaded from the Internet but heavily reproduced and re-imagined variously on my two Yamaha keyboards (Clavinova and PSR 975), but also using PC midi editing & DAW software.

Towards the end of that period, I added some of my more original electronic music which I produced over the past two decades under the name of Funkleberry in order to consolidate my Soundcloud accounts. 

But in 2024 I got into AI music generation and I am now  a freelance songwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!

My first 4 AI Albums can also be found here:
