With my newly released EP, I made a lyric video to see if I could visually show the movie that was in my head when I was writing the song. Interestingly, trying to visually create a story takes in new directions even when it is close to what inspired the song. There was a part of me that was fascinated and torn by this technology. I don't use generative AI for writing music, but for making videos, it is promising. What do you think? Would you use it to make music videos?
First off I want to say this is just my opinion and you don't have to feed off this whatsoever. I think the ai music video might confuse a lot of people that the song was written by ai and I feel like it also looks a bit fake(ik it is, don't get me wrong) but for a low budget music video I think it is okay, however if you're planning to release this song to The Wider public then you might want to try making like a music video that is real people without using AI. I also personally think that if somebody randomly saw this they might think that 'oh this songwriter is using Ai, this song is not good b/c they used ai on it' and that would reflect badly on you so just something to think about if you're ever releasing it to the wider public.. again this is just my opinion and you don't have to live by it or change anything:) I also think the song is amazing to begin with anyway tho, so that is good already. im gonna stop critizizing you now and let you know that while ai use for a small musical video or a section in a music video is okay, using it for the entire thing might not end well.
@Nora Coll Thanks for the feedback and your thoughts! I really appreciate you sharing a helpful perspective. I think you're pretty spot on in identifying my concerns with this. I don't have a strong feeling against AI generation for video, but I'm reluctant with it because of the impression and confusion that comes with it. I showed this to a lot of people (music producers, other musicians) and I think there is a fascination and discomfort with it. Some are curious and supportive and others are probably holding back their true thoughts. Some are interested in doing it themselves for their own music videos. In this age of emerging AI, I come back to what I want to do as a musician. I appreciate that I put a lot of time into practicing voice and instruments, ear training, studying how to write better songs and lyrics. I want to keep improving myself. I'm not totally afraid of the impression that using AI to generate video gives, but it something I consider. I'll find something that fits with what I want to express, but I truly appreciate your thoughts on this.
@Ken Matsuda thank you for your polite reaction to my initial feedback, I had been worried you would consider it rude. I think you have great musical skills and you are going great places as is. Good luck.
How do you deal with the Inversionist game? I must admit that this is the game I'm progressing at the slowest pace. Initially, once I understood what inversions were, I simply tried to sing the individual notes in the chord and recognize/count the intervals that make up a given chord. Maybe this isn't the best approach? Apparently, people simply recognize the specific feel of a particular inversion and don't count the distances between notes. I'd love to hear your approach, and whether you think it's best to play this game with a piano as a guide? (or is that pointless because it's cheating and not ear training?)
I started playing the Ryhtmic Parrot game a few weeks ago. I was just wondering if any of you (more experienced players) have been able to input the rythms on the game with something other than your keyboard or mouse. I was thinking a drum pad would be very cool to be able to use, but it seems only some games allow for MIDI input.
Living with musicians: dream setup or daily test of patience?
The Debate: Is sharing space with other musicians a vibe, or a chore?
On one side, there’s late-night jams, instant feedback, and random moments of inspiration. On the other, there’s noise, clutter, bad timing, and the eternal fight for quiet.
Why It Matters: Your environment shapes how consistently you practice, listen, and stay motivated.
Team A vibe or Team B chore, and what makes it feel that way for you?
This is a real problem, particularly if you have a family. This is my case. Indeed, children need regularity and time and musicians are in constant instability and research needs time too ; maybe someone find a way, I didn't for now ! But, disadvantages are compensated if you arrive to do as many things as possible with all your family and they experience things that few people will ever know I think...
