What Does Future Music Sounds Like?

 Install Suno on your hi res phone, use your iem earbud, tap on Suno's Best of v5.5 or Staff Picks or Made with Studio.

Listen. Did you hear those sounds before? You didn't because it was AI matched and mixed from human music, but this time in a fast forward manner no human musician can do even in his lifetime.

It can create billions of music mixing mathematics can do, but human beings can do slowly only by learning from others' songs.

We're talking about future sound of those music, not yet saying if they're meaningful.

But hey, I'm listening and learning AI compositional techniques no slow human beings have yet idealized about.

Of course by hearing it, I become familiar with how it sounds. Suno is giving me ideas for free, not yet being captured by record labels and leading artists. Hear what you like.

Then let your advantage as a human being create something meaningful from it that touches the heart as well.

Of course, it doesn't go that fast. You write songs when you're inspired. Moments like that comes rare. But when inspiration comes, you have those mixes of the future already.

Your old guitar though can't replicate the electro music mix of the AI, to the taste of human beings (what we've made top charters). But even savvy producers say they can't replicate those sounds very easily. We're doomed on the other side, unless electro music will be as simple as playing a guitar. A software synth sound is an infinite sound maker compared to a limited acoustic guitar of a particular size, shape, and sound. How can a limited human being manipulate easily electro music to its tastes, unless an AI music assistant easily points to you what to do with those thousand knobs to produce the sound you have in mind. Or unless wearable brain computer interfaces can already easily capture those sounds. Then it's a human creative and authored product already which was just captured by the interface. Well, Supreme Court or Copyright Office will surely have a headache about that if it comes of age.

The news that Spotify removed 75m AI songs is a good news for supporting real human artists. But likewise as we've been battling since the start, AI should assists artists, even drop costs of studio finished songs, not replace or remove both. It then points developers to the right path.

We don't need very complicated musical sound to create good songs. There are even popular songs made up of a single guitar and a duet, nothing more nothing less. They've become popular because these songs are coming from the heart, and the sound is organic to the felt emotion of the human person composing or performing it. Emotion is then revealing themselves to us as not meaningless belting of voice or electric guitar. It's true that the heart has a reason which reason cannot understand. When we are lost though, we are better to remind ourselves that charity is truth and truth is charity as well, according to Pope Benedict XVI. And rather than me hearing those future sound of music as advantage, might become the contrary, complex but shallow, novel but non-organic, advanced but detached.
