Here's an unlisted video of a track from another album I wrote themed around crime/spy thrillers that will be out later this year probably via my usual publisher, but after the gothic/dark neoclassical album I wrote for them. So I'm expecting it to be out around summer or fall. This in particular is the first electronic-driven tune I've composed in I don't know how long, since I had abandoned that genre since I wasn't really good at it (and didn't enjoy it as much as the orchestra anyway) and hate designing synth timbres, but writing this one I was kinda like See what you think. Side note: I expect most of my YouTube DAW videos going forward to be unlisted. YouTube has kind of become a joke since the AI slop takeover you just get buried in the algorithm; better use of time to just show these to film directors and such, which has been going much better anyway.

Sounds great. I think my only complaints is that I think you overuse the sudden rests a bit in the latter half of the piece, but it is good listening and does what it says on the tin.

Also listen to this one the whole way through. How did this get passed the censors lol

Hell yeah brother

Thanks guys! Haha, but I can't really take too much credit tbh. It was fate that made this mashup, and I a mere agent to make it happen. Tbh I never got the Nickelback hate

Probably, but it's not actually doing anything that isn't already a standard feature really in drum kits for years. Premade beats. I would point out that on marketplaces like gamedev market, they forbid AI art assets, but allow composers to use AI cover art.

Do they even exist at this point?

I will also add that I think video should be encouraged as the primary detection means. Almost every computer today has built-in screen capture software that will allow you to record daw/notation playback effortlessly.

Just saw this and voted. Those results so far

Very bad idea if you want to be a professional. Great if you want to be a hobbyist and worth studying for the sake of the craft. But if you want to be a professional composer, you don't want to be a jack of all trades.

Now I'm not normally in the business of mashups, but it always bothered me that Selena Gomez's "Rock God" didn't have any rock in it. When I set out to rectify this problem, it occurred to me that the "Burn It To The Ground" riff was perfect for it already, and so...

I didn't say I'm never coming back to the forums or something (yet) but I'm not participating in this event anymore and I've now explained myself to a number of people who've quoted me.

Reporting them meant nothing. Their Suno prompt is still in the event and the staff didn't even really offer an explanation for why they did a 180 in a matter of minutes. You have to have principles and actually stand by them or else your principles don't mean ѕhіt. I am against AI-generated music and I will not spend precious, authentic composing hours to participate in anything alongside charlatans.

How is that possibly going too far?
