Abnormal Noise

I made this track for the Harmonai Production Challenge (May 2023). The challenge required submitting a track that utilized AI-generated audio from the community project Dance Diffusion (a family of audio-generating machine learning models).

Dance Diffusion has several functionalities, one of which is "style transfer", which takes an input audio sample and performs diffusion to "transfer" it to a different space the model was trained on.

For this song, I heavily used Dance Diffusion's style transfer abilities to create rich textures and ambient pads. I would take a vanilla synth or pad and feed it into Dance Diffusion, tinker with the hyperparameters, and produce beautiful ambient textures for this track. Then I chose my favorite sounds and incorporated them into the song. 

I'm really happy with how it turned out (going for a lofi vibe) and I think it is a great example of how artists and producers can use AI tools to boost creativity.
