I had a great time chatting with Xylo Aria recently about production techniques in dance music. Also discovered I say "you know" way too much, and I'm slow AF at speed quizzes 😹

Somehow inside of 2 weeks and after only one post and a repost, my bluesky account got taken down for impersonating and misleading behaviour 🤬 fuckin hell

Caved to FOMO. Joined bluesky. Follow me there [where I promise to be more active / engaged]:

EPILOGUE: I pulled that Taylor Swift x Post Malone prompt totally outta nowhere, thinking they're two totally different artists that I wouldn't immediately expect to work together. Just saw this on fb. Brain broken. Going to go crawl back underneath my rock now 🤯😹

[Kerry Leva is sick of the dystopian hellscape @KerryLeva]

Never thought I'd see the day where I'd ask chatGPT to write me a song in the style of Taylor Swift meets Post Malone about a unicorn riding in on a rainbow to save democracy, but here we are, folks.

Bit wordy and on the nose for my taste, but here you go:

Needless to say, this will not be making it onto the album 😹

[NPR @NPR]

In just 8 minutes, a professor created a deepfake video of himself giving a lecture by feeding an AI app a selfie and voice clip.

It cost $11 to make.

He's warning that the risks from this technology are not in the distant future — they're already here.

This is the worse AI will ever be.

The Music industry is completely gonna be turned upside down.

Every artist will have their own custom trained model, and Spotify will own this space why?

Steve Reich's "Piano Phase" is such a fckn banger

@SOHN 100000000% with you and have been feeling this for a long time. I was never really into the "look at me" culture in which we've all been groomed to participate. I just want to spent time with people I love and write my music without voyeurism.

Welp, I guess I now understand why some people out there clap only on the 1 and the 3 🤣

Also uh... I *guess* this is one way to explain syncopation, but uhm, who's gonna tell him that 2 and 4 are *also* down beats [just... you know... "weaker" ones, usually]?! 🧐🤓

[Robert Komaniecki @Komaniecki_R]

If you've never seen someone attempt to use music theory to explain how syncopation leaves you vulnerable to demonic possession, you're in for a real treat:
