VARIANTS  OF SOUND

instruments: Jeff Gardiner and jo richter
modulation, arrangement and all that: jo richter
lyrics: Jeff Gardiner in collaboration with jo richter
image: Jeff Gardiner in collaboration with jo richter

in an accent long unspoken
in an ancient dialect
curses, blessings, symbols, token
the janitor, the architect
born to care and to dissect
and dream the dream of the unwoken

like a bird within a flight of thought
falling upwards, held within
an endless tunnel copper-wrought
bats, the arching acrobats and next of kin
to passage-dwellers of the interim
who cuddle up head-down and midnight-fraught

about to take flight to the light
like a silent spell and serpent word
burning brightly in the night
like a river’s moon shedding a midnight beam
sheathing the last, unseeing and unseen
sheathing the last remaining sword

Can we just let AI music proceed as is unchallenged?

Absolutely not!

Soon the result is going to be unrecognisable vs human made. It will never be better because it's human character that makes music new but where the problem lies is in young musicians and their appreciation of the result. For an artist, that appreciation is born from years of getting it wrong and countless hours of difficult practice. For young minds that is now a challenging decision, spend your life playing an instrument or get it made for you in 10 seconds. Young minds have shorter and shorter attention spans because of short dose media so it's possible kids won't bother learning and making music the skillful route. 

That in my opinion removes too much feeling from the world of music and it needs to be challenged from as many corners of this ball as possible. Our kids are worth it and so is the memory of all the artists that inspired all of us to get music where it is today. Let's protect that at all costs. Currently, with no AI regulation companies are running the show and their is zero conscientious design associated with it because the developers are competing with each other for slices of the pie. See below the lyrics for an idea for a pro active way of fighting that using people power and human intuition to draw a line in the sand on this...



Lyrics

"We are committed to Artists"
So sayeth sound cloud
White knight of streams for real human crowd
Yet they let this flood of prompters go loud
For shareholder pockets with ad money endowed

They're no white knight
They are bottom line
They care not for real just profit now blind
Will they ruin music?
Never for me...
But to fight this evil
Where's philanthropy...

Fight fire with fire
Found new intention
Attention to share human creation
It's here we evolve and find life thats new
Here not for profit show merit thats true

The darkening cloud will evaporate
It's all about tuning your heart to good sake
The sake of your neighbour and what they can make
The fake will burn out when most of us wake

Give, don't take. Make, don't fake
Be proud of true you
Not dark cloud of hate
A fate we make with faith in inner
Why have faith in fake to have nicer dinner

Bread is bread and rice is rice
Simple sustenance to evolve your nice
You have your food if your lucky
But forget real new and your music means nothing

Prompters going loud
Never proud
Still allowed
Light up this darkening cloud
Prompters going loud
Never proud
Still allowed
Light up this darkening cloud


💡Idea: If SoundCloud were to offer a facility of confirming your process that might be a bit harder for the prompters to manipulate the system. They could even make it community based like Wikipedia where artists review and verify authenticity so that would take labour costs largely away from SoundCloud and the will would definately be there to get this on the level for people. I would donate time to that I think... that might be a positively focused way of separating the artists from the prompters. Prove you are what you say and then people can know they are embracing verified creators

This would actually work better outside of SoundCloud and the whole music industry and all streaming platforms could use it as a reference for real and badge it their own way for people to see and know what to embrace no matter where they listen to music

Where's the philanthropist for this? I'm broke! 😆

a little snippet from the other night. Somewhat contrasting the extreme noise of our last SC post : ) Still making use of this wonderful space and Grand Piano, no doubt we will get asked to leave at some stage, but until then happy days : )

Elsewhen

When i'm not playing video games....
...i listen to Music.
I get into everything: Abba to Zappa...Grindcore to Gershwin...Nine Inch Nails to Nina Simone...Mike Oldfield to My Bloody Valentine to Miles Davis
  I LIKE MUSIC....composing and listening   😎
For the record: I am a keyboardist and sometimes drummer. About 90% of  the keyboard work is me actually playing a Yamaha Midi keyboard. Now you know...
