    I wasn’t wearing my “Lemmy hat”, I was wearing my music production hat. There are a lot of generative music tools out there that do a fairly decent job when part of a mix of tools. You can use some pitch correction and re-voicing tools to keep the vocalist on pitch and change their voice entirely. Instead, I can almost guarantee that they wrote the lyrics and fed them to Suno along with a genre prompt and saved personality. I doubt they bothered to even use the Suno Studio feature. This genuinely sounds like default generative output. It’s lazy, horribly mixed, noisy, and all around minimum effort.

    PS: I also have not doubt that the lyrics are also prompt generated.

      The biggest tell is the exact 2:00 length haha.

      Music production hat makes you equally resistant to AI usage. With my music production hat on it’s equally difficult to listen to. Super compressed. That noise is ridiculous. The song itself pretty basic. BUT it’s not bad. I’ve heard human make stuff that sounds wayyyyy worse. Obviously it’s stealing from a lot to create something halfway decent. It’s only gonna keep sounding better (think autotune vs melodyne) and/or our ears are going to adjust to this quality of music. As I’m sure you know, music is heavily compressed/limited and way louder than generations past. And loooootts of overproduced artists in the radio. Part of me feels the same way. I’ll never like AI generated music. Then another part of me say, what if it sounds good? Why not? I still listen to MJ sometimes and he diddled kids.
