ABOUT THE RELEASE

It has been seven years since the release of "Immortal Habits", the album that got Canadian electronic artist Liza Nicklin critical acclaim and a Fenty Beauty sync placement. She has finally decided to share her new material with the world. The album "Revel: Generative" will be released in September and "Generosity of Genius" is the first of two singles to announce it. It has Nicklin's trademark brand of deep house mixed with dub techno, intelligently spiced with uplifting memorable grooves.

This is the final song of the project. Again, the text is almost entirely produced by AI. I make two versions available and downloadable: one sung by a female voice, the other by a male.
This time, no one is mocked; the perspective is that of a ‘democratic’ artificial intelligence; everyone will be able to do everything, everything will be within reach, there will be no need for special skills. There is a page on SCloud that struck me: @siennaai. The owner of the profile, in the biographical notes, stating that he only offers AI-generated music, says: ‘There should be no professions with a status quo; either all have such a status or none do.’
That's all folks.

He was working at the pumps
Filling tanks counting dreams
Now his words in music's light
AI brought him to the scenes

She was ringing up the sales
Scanning hope through every beep
Now her songs they sail the skies
AI woke her from the deep

He'd deliver pizzas late at night
Dreams of songs under neon light
Now he's writing hits so bright
AI turned his wrongs to right

They were once lost in the crowd
But they turned it around
With a voice loud and proud
they’re AI bound
AI dreams make music soar
Lifted hearts from mundane floors
Real musicians struggle through
In a world they thought they knew

She poured drinks in a rundown dive
Barely getting by to survive
Now her lyrics come alive
Meeting success in overdrive

They was tooking care of other people's children at night
Whistling tunes to pass the time
Now their tracks are charting high
AI's rhythm made them shine

Once they cleaned and swept the way
Now their notes and lines both play
Real musicians are in tears
AI bringing new cheers
Real musicians pause and sigh
In a world that's passed them by

They were once lost in the crowd
But they turned it around
With a voice loud and proud
they’re AI bound
AI dreams make music soar
Lifted hearts from mundane floors
Real musicians struggle through
In a world they thought they knew
