♟ A southern gothic duel set to music.
“Beat You At Your Own Game (Checkmate)” walks into the room slow and deliberate — a genre-bending fusion of indie-folk noir, southern gothic Americana, cinematic pop atmospherics, and dusty country blues swagger. Built on a hypnotic pulse and laced with sly, streetwise bravado, the track plays like a musical standoff: part confession, part challenge, part victory lap.

🎤 The AI Artist Revolution
At the heart of Checkmate is a leap into the future. In an industry obsessed with image and youth, producer-songwriter Luke Carter (Sammi Dae) is rewriting the rules. Carter has developed a roster of AI vocalists — including Riven Knox — to reimagine the music they’ve written, produced, and originally performed themselves.
Riven Knox’s performance brings smoky grit and cinematic gravitas — a voice built for shadowy backrooms, desert highways, and decisive final moves. It’s a haunting, human-like delivery with a modern edge, bridging the timeless storytelling of southern roots with the limitless creative possibilities of AI.
“We’re in our 50s, still writing and producing with passion. But we built performers who never age.” – Luke Carter (Sammi Dae)

Artist: Sammi Dae feat. Cartyr
Produced & Written by: Luke Carter (Sammi Dae)

Label: DGG Productions Ltd
Genre: Britpop / Indie Pop / Grit Rock / AI Vocal Crossover
Key: F Minor | Tempo: 86 BPM

⚡ Grit, attitude, and Northern swagger. 

The Mancunian (Northside) is an edgy Britpop-inspired anthem that fuses indie-pop sharpness with raw guitar energy, delivered through Cartyr’s confident, gritty AI-rendered vocal. With its laid-back but punchy groove, the track captures the spirit of Manchester pride with a streetwise, unpolished edge.

The production is clean and punchy, leaning on gritty guitars, a solid mid-tempo rhythm, and a vocal performance mixed right at the forefront. The song follows a classic verse-chorus structure, with swagger-laced verses building into choruses that feel bold, anthemic, and distinctly Northern. It’s a slick, attitude-heavy fusion that bridges the city’s Britpop heritage with a modern indie edge.

At the core of this track is Luke Carter’s artistic revolution. Having written, performed, and produced these songs himself, Carter chose to reinvent his catalogue through a roster of AI artists—each with their own voice, style, and persona. Cartyr embodies the Britpop grit in this reinterpretation, just as Thea and Sacha Rome embody soul and funk in others. These AI vocalists aren’t novelties—they’re the new voices of timeless human song writing, pushing music into a future where identity and sound go beyond physical performers.

With Northside, DGG Productions continues to expand the series of The Mancunian tracks—each one a different reimagining of Mancunian culture, grit, and diversity, powered by AI artistry. Cartyr’s raw vocal delivery makes this version the anthem for the street, the pub, and the stadium alike.

🎧 For fans of: Oasis • Blur • Arctic Monkeys • The Verve • Kasabian

✨ AI Meets Emotion: The Mancunian (Northside) is part of Sammi Dae’s AI crossover project—each track sung by a different AI artist, each reimagining Manchester identity in a new style.

🚪 A fire-lit confession set to rhythm. 

Who’s Gonna Love Me (Havana Nights) fuses the sway of Latin grooves with indie hip-hop swagger and soulful pop charm. Driven by edgy rhythm guitar, smoky piano, syncopated Afro beats, and an irresistibly cool rap flow, this track slips between dancefloor energy and confessional intimacy. Angelic female vocals from AI artists Ziah and Thea bring light to the grit, creating a dynamic, sweet-edged counterbalance that cuts through the rhythm with intensity and grace.

At the heart of this release is Sammi Dae’s boldest experiment yet: building a roster of AI vocalists who embody unique sonic identities. Ziah delivers an edgy, modern tone that blends hip-hop inflection with pop sheen, while Thea contributes angelic textures that soar above the production. Together, they transform Luke Carter’s songwriting into a multi-dimensional experience — proving that AI-driven artistry can be as emotionally compelling as any human performance.

This project is more than a track — it’s part of a larger series where each song is reimagined through different AI performers. By creating artists like Ziah, Thea, Tom B-Lyve, Sacha Rome, and Devyn Cross, Carter ensures that his music continues to evolve, offering fresh interpretations while maintaining the heart and soul of his writing.

With Havana Nights, the production leans into clean, punchy beats, edgy rap, Latin-inspired instrumentation, and a pop-savvy hook that lingers long after the track ends. It’s playful yet gritty, streetwise yet angelic — a bold fusion for the modern listener.
