Some loose ends that came together all at the same time. Mostly short tracks, brief and repetitive moments. It's when I began, then, trying to write and be an artist I used to be.

En la otra orilla

En la orilla del dolor
sólo tienen frustración
y el anhelo de un mundo mejor.

En la orilla del placer
todo es poco hasta ser
el más fuerte y el que tenga el poder.

Estribillo

Desde la orilla se ve el fulgor
de la riqueza aupada en neón
que nutre la fe y la ilusión.
Todos se echan a la mar
porque piensan que tendrán
por fin un lugar para soñar.

----------------------

No se entiende que huir
del infierno es seguir
el instinto de sobrevivir.

Estribillo

Y se tienen que aguantar
si los quieren explotar
los mismos que los quieren echar.

On the other shore

On the shore of pain
they only have frustration
and the longing for a better world.

On the shore of pleasure
everything is too little until you are
the strongest and the one who has the power.

Chorus

From the shore you can see the glow
of wealth boosted in neon
that nourishes faith and illusion.
Everyone sets out to sea
because they think they will
finally have a place to dream.

----------------------

It is not understood that fleeing
from hell is following
the instinct to survive.

Chorus

And they have to put up with
if they want to exploit them
the same people who want to throw them out.

UNDERGROUND
A Tribute to Metallica's Kill'Em All Phase
Music by Overdrive

This is an original track inspired by Metallica's Kill'Em All phase, which features James Hetfield's AI-generated vocals. It's a non-commercial/experimental track made as a tribute to the band and created under the fair use permission of copyright statute.

The use of AI-generated vocals is still a source of much controversy and heated discussion. I've been following the issue closely since the beginning of 2023, when French DJ David Guetta replicated the voice of American rapper Eminem during a concert, causing a wave of immense buzz about it.

Also in early 2023, the track "Heart on My Sleeve", which used AI-generated vocals from Canadian rappers Drake and The Weeknd, went viral before being taken down by streaming services. 

In September, John Lennon's voice was removed from a demo tape recorded in 1978. The poor quality audio was processed with AI for a new Beatles recording, giving rise to the song "Now & Then".

During this period, there was an eruption of websites focused on voice cloning, which, in October 2023, led RIAA to request the inclusion of such websites on the government's piracy watchlist -- and the main target became Vocify.ai. 

On the other hand, Aditya Bansal, a 20-year-old UK student who founded Vocify.ai, claims that several record companies have already contacted him wanting to make models of their own artists for demo tracks, "as drafts before the full recording process".

As MusicBusiness rightly pointed out, "major record companies hate AI voice-cloning platforms that don't pay".

I myself have had some very interesting personal experiences on the subject. A demo track of "Underground" was posted on a Discord server dedicated to vocaloids and synthesized vocals. The track was deleted less than 24 hours later by the moderator, who made a point of publicly censoring me on the open channel, stating that he didn't accept what he called "unethical" methods. I tried to explain that it was an experimental track, with no commercial purpose; that it was made as a tribute; that I had also sent the link directly to the band on their official Metallica Instagram, and so on. But the mere act of replying got me summarily kicked off the server.

I honestly believe that merely using tools like Voicify.ai and Kits.ai is not an unethical activity when the aim is to test the potential of a new technology. And the track "Underground" worked exactly as an experiment. It taught me that AI-cloned vocals need a lot of filters on the daw to mask defects derived from the cloning process. It served to show that the quantity of examples provided during the training of the AI is essential for improving the quality of the model. It served to show that training the model is better with vocals recorded in mono than with vocals in stereo; better with vocals recorded dry than recorded with reverb; and so on.

Moreover, I'm particularly happy with the AI-generated commercial voices I already use with Synthesizer V software, so I have no intention of replacing them with cloned voices of famous singers.

Hopefully, this small initiative will at least serve to dispel a little of the immense prejudice that has arisen around a technology that will soon become commonplace in the music industry. Nowadays, no one remembers all the controversy caused by the emergence of radio, when record company managers boasted that no one would buy albums anymore. It's the same story every time a new technology emerges.

Hope you enjoy the track.

TECH TRIVIA
* The guitar solos were assembled from multiple pieces of isolated audios of Kirk Hammett's solos available on YT.

* The rhythm guitars and the bass are Kontakt libraries. 

* The original vocals were created in Synthesizer V with NineZero voicebank. The NineZero's isolated audio was then converted into James Hetfield's vocals.

Underground - A Tribute to Metallica's Kill'Em All Phase

Take you to the party 
if you need me to pull up
On a cloud 
I don’t need to be taller 
Out of town 
but i can’t even slow down
Come around with a feeling 
And you feel like 
Like you’re falling 
but until then 
we’ll be floating
Throw your hands 
till the whole world ends 
Partying till the sun comes in

You don’t have to go if you don’t want to 
But you leave your phone on silent 

Talk to me 
I really wanna know 
Do you love me
really really love me now

Written about my favourite area to visit.

Lyrics:
Blue-green infinity, the holy trinity: water, shoreline and sky
Poseidon slumbering, fear not encumbering, water, shoreline and sky
There was enlightenment and pure proportion, 
Channeled through the golden mean.
The perfect pieces of the past lie broken,
Waiting in a timeless dream. Aegean aquamarine.

It doesn’t matter if the world is stalling 
It doesn’t matter if it’s all appalling 
It doesn’t matter if the sky is falling
When the aquamarine is calling.
 
Invasion history, asleep in mystery, hidden in the evening calm,
The water covering, no tale discovering, hidden in the evening calm.
The sun retreating from its aerial throne, lifting off its golden crown,
Apollo, Helios and Phoebus descend, easing their chariot down,
Into the aquamarine.  Instrum.

Blue-green infinity, the holy trinity: water, shoreline and sky
Poseidon slumbering, fear not encumbering, water, shoreline and sky
Aegean aquamarine.

It doesn’t matter if the world is stalling 
It doesn’t matter if it’s all appalling 
It doesn’t matter if the sky is falling
When the aquamarine is calling.    Instrum.

Aquamarine

EXTURSTION-POINT (Burnseych7)

lyrics and vocals by Stefan Radjen

club lights
bright eyes
your smile,my smile
beauty in,beauty out
thats what we're all about

they stare,we don't care
didn't want us over there
we got out ,walked a while
to your hotel room

Pre chorus:
red wine hit us hard
and we fucked real good
and we fucked real good
in your hotel room

Chorus:
don't you worry
we will meet again
but it'll never be the same
but it'l never be the same
and I wont worry oh no I wont worry
cause I'll never be the same cause' ill never be the same again

you said stay the night
but tomorrow is my flight
felt like an idiot
so I had to start a fight

I kinda made a scene
you thought you'll never see
from me,
on the streets
on the streets of lovely Berlin

red wine hit me hard
and I fucked it all up
and it fucked it all up

Chorus:2x
don't you worry
we will meet again
but it'll never be the same
but it'l never be the same
and I wont worry oh no I wont worry
cause I'll never be the same cause' ill never be the same again

AGAIN
