جمهوری اسلامی ايران (Dschomhuri-ye Eslāmi-ye Irān) - می رویم جلو (Mi Ravim Jelo)

Winner of the week: 🥇20

Iran (historically as an exonym until 1935 and partly beyond that, Persia) is a country in the Near East. The country is bordered by the Caspian Sea to the north and the Persian Gulf to the south.

With around 90 million inhabitants (as of 2024) and an area of ​​around 1.65 million square kilometers, the state of Iran is one of the 20 most populous and largest countries in the world. The capital, largest city and economic and cultural center is Tehran with 8.7 million inhabitants; other cities with more than 1.5 million inhabitants are Mashhad, Isfahan, Karaj, Shiraz and Tabriz. In early antiquity, the Persian Empire was a powerful civilization in today's national territory.

Since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iran has been ruled in an authoritarian manner by a Shiite “Supreme Leader” (Ali Khamenei since 1989). Other political institutions have little power and exist more in appearance. The regime regularly commits serious violations of human rights. It also controls almost every aspect of daily life in terms of religious and ideological conformity, thereby curtailing the freedom of every citizen. Iran is a member of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

Since the Islamic Revolution, Iran's good relations with Western states have turned into open hostility, which is firmly anchored in the state ideology, especially with regard to the formerly friendly USA and Israel. However, relations with Russia and China have deepened, especially since the late 2010s, and there are also military cooperations with both. In particular, Iran supports Russia in the war against Ukraine.

In the Middle East, Iran is a regional power and leads an unofficial military coalition with the Axis of Resistance, which includes, among others, the authoritarian governments in Syria and Gaza as well as Hezbollah and Houthis. With this it fights in several wars against other regional powers such as Israel and Saudi Arabia, such as the war in Syria, the war in Yemen and the war in Israel and Gaza.

Thanks to its natural resources, especially the world's largest natural gas and fourth-largest oil reserves, Iran has a major influence on the world's supply of fossil fuels. Apart from that, the Iranian economy was in a deep crisis for a long time, due, among other things, to the high proportion of inefficient state-owned companies, corruption and the sanctions as a result of the conflict over the Iranian nuclear program.

Iran 🥇 - Mi Ravim Jelo

Even as a small child I wanted to learn a musical instrument...

...since there was a music school in our small town where I grew up, but it was limited to the activities of the local musicians' band, the choice was rather limited... because piano, guitar or saxophone were not offered and that's why I decided me for the trumpet, which was not used for cast-technical reasons, so the FLÜGELHORN became my instrument...
In my youth I turned my back on music and was active in sports towards the end of my teenage years.

The Manic Momma you need to know :)I play #indie #artist #music #daily on @facebook @instagram - you should be following me on there - always #free - always #postivevibes

= Scratch Kelly & TBD
My first band in 20 years haha. Schweeeet! TBD is a band already in my head but this is an actual band🤘🏽


Dear Universe. Please bring peace to planet Earth 🙏🏽 Thanks Universe ✅


Thanks a centillion for ALL the support. I love you all for helping me in so many ways with what I've loved doing for 38 years, making music. This is a human made list of life dives. I'd happily explain any process to you if you wish or are wondering something about TBD. Just ask, I'm Carl and I love sharing what I've discovered and learned especially in the songs themselves. I see songs as one of the finest ways to learn something and bolt your truth to on any subject in a direct yet maybe less imposing manner as your singing it and making it mellifluous. It's hard to sing what you feel is a lie so in my view writing truly honest lyrics and making them songs can be a mini thesis for you on any subject.

No AI here... AI creativity insults my entire existence and the memory of all the dead artists that got their amazing work plagiarised to build current LLMs. I actually hope we legislate to fix that in the future if possible. Delete it and start again in my view. Building an Artificial Intelligence on stealing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Very clever! I'll stick with my actual intelligence thank you very much!
I do respect there are positive applications using AI music and in the future they will hopefully grow to being great for humanity. Right now though I believe there's a responsibility for artists to paint how humans make this world of music so generations that will only experience the world with AI music have a proper reference to retain and grow with. It's a fight for the soul of art until the soul of art is saved. Then we can utilise AI creativity more in my opinion but we have to make it an environment that doesn't wipe out individual evolution evolving music like they have done. A machine doing it for you is more matrix then artist. 

I had actually collaborated with a couple of AI artists and naively excepted them at face value. I nuked those songs though even though I made them very real... No thanks don't want to spread any of that shit! If you noticed this and saw me as a hypocrite I don't blame you but unfortunately that's the fake vs real guess world we are starting to need to navigate at the moment! It has made me overly protectionist about who to embrace!

Something needs to change fast. I've decided to stop following obvious AI accounts and I'm sorry if we have built up a relationship but it's a battle so... and it's not ok the current status quo... and every AI account that.doesnt lay bare what it is you are creating the problem so I can't support you any more and I don't mind if you stop spreading my music either. Thanks human to human but not with AI music as the medium thanks very much!

My shorterm plan is to start making a method to audit a SoundCloud profile as a reference to make it easier to avoid more AI typists. The more we avoid them the more we take the algorithm away from them. So in my view that's the tactic... We drive them all into a corner so they can digitally  pee all over each other and we can listen and share music. Hopefully culturally it will evolve more thoughtfully and we can come back to it and maybe even embrace it in cool creative ways. But it cannot in my view be allowed become the shortcut to result that kids get inspired by and don't bother learning music. That will limit the wiring of their brains and it's probably true to say overall health because of that.

Thanks a million for spending the time to read my bio... It changes like the wind. I feel a little bit sorry for you 😆 But I loooooove SoundCloud and I love getting upgraded off all the geniuses here so feel free to poke me anytime and I'll poke you back with my ears and honest opinion ❤️‍🔥 (and probably point out why you're better then AI 🕺🏽)
