Thought I'd share a couple of interesting little VoiceAI examples. As I mentioned earlier, I sometimes use VoiceAI while working out a song so I can hear what it will sound like with a female vocal. Here are short excerpts from two pop tracks I've been working on. These demo vocals were...

I appreciate the words of encouragement 🙏

In addition to April In Paris, the other April song that immediately comes to mind is this tender ballad by Simon & Garfunkel. As I was searching for a link to share, I didn't realize the interesting (at least to me) little journey I was embarking on... The only version of this song I was...

Just wanted to add a small contribution to April In Paris... Back in the 90s, during my hour-long commute to work, I often listened to a local jazz radio station, and one morning, a version of April In Paris came on that totally knocked me out. When the DJ came back on and announced the...

Oh for sure. I learned how to produce big vocals from several pro engineers many years ago, and for some styles, it's practically a requirement. But for more intimate singer-songwriter stuff, a wall of background vocals isn't always appropriate, so that just leaves my feeble lead vocal exposed...

Unfortunately, background singers are usually far superior vocalists than the front man/woman they're backing. Take Lisa Fisher, for example. I know for certain I could never do that job :eek:. I'm better off pretending to sing and hope the audience will forgive my ineptitude in the same way...

Well sadly, I must admit that D is my own inadequate vocal - but I agree with you 100% (I always hated the way it finished weakly on the word "dead", among other flaws). I never professed to be a singer, even though I've inflicted my talentless voice on many a bewildered audience, and...

Just wanted to post an update on my journey so far with SoundID VoiceAI... At present, I've finished producing 6 songs of my current 10-song pop project, and up to this point, have decided not to use VoiceAI at all, not even for background vocals. This was partly a functional decision -...

March is an easy one for me: Waters Of March by Antonio Carlos Jobin, who wrote versions both in Portuguese and English. This song used to be part of my wife's live set, and I always loved hearing her perform it. Unfortunately, she never recorded it, at least not yet. There are many great...

Beautiful arrangement, song, and singing. There are definitely some country treasures out there. But I gotta ask, how does this song tie in to the month of March for you?

OMG, I almost forgot to make a February post, which would've been a shame because I actually have a song for this month that's genuinely one of my personal favorites. It happens to be by the same artist as my January pick. It's one of their better songs and one that helped propel their career...

One of last year's biggest pop songs was Golden from the K-Pop Demon Hunters movie. It topped the Billboard charts for multiple weeks, won the Golden Globe for best song, was nominated for a best song Grammy, is up for an Oscar, and is undeniably one of the key contributors to K-Pop's...

Here's a recent video from David Gnozzi (MixbusTV) discussing yet another fake AI artist getting millions of streams, and general issues around AI music. He tends to be a little long winded and repeats himself at times, but he hits the nail on the head regarding AI music and its effect on...

This brings up another important consideration when it comes to collaborative songwriting... and that is the difference between a band versus a singer-songwriter. In a band setting, it's very common indeed to have multiple band members contribute to the songwriting effort. When I played in a...

If you believe in your creative vision and have something deeply personal to express, there's no compelling reason to collaborate, in fact, collaboration may actually be counterproductive. Making art is an intensely personal journey, and it's no surprise the vast majority of artists, of all...

This is an interesting topic to explore, thanks for bringing it up. I think it's a revealing indicator that only one person responded when I started a thread a while back asking folks to identify songwriter(s) they'd most want to collaborate with. I think this is because we songwriters view...

Well, it seems you're in good company 😄

Most of my musical activities got derailed during the holidays by the three F's: Family, Festivities, and Flu. So I only recently got back into the groove, so to speak. My main project right now is a collection of pop songs for a production library I write for. Actually, I don't know if the...

There was a healthy surge of activity around here during the last quarter of 2025. But once the end-of-year holidays hit, folks pretty much disappeared, including myself. Hopefully, there are good reasons for everyone's absences... the best reason of all being you're all consumed with frenzied...

I'm fine if someone uses ChatGPT to help with lyrics, uses Scaler to suggest chord progressions, uses a Reason Player device to come up with melodic ideas, uses EZbass to generate bass lines, uses drum loops for drum parts, uses Synth V to express a vocal performance, uses ReSing or VoiceAI to...
