I'd love to be in France with a cheap bottle of plonk, but I am currently not.

Despite the rumours of my plane crashing and Satan taking my soul under one of his warm wings, and rubbing his cloven hoof on my soul and singing my soul ancient lullabies in long forgotten tongues from dead languages, nay, I'm not in hell, but it is slightly warmer than Ireland.

They are plotting really cool things like bank heists and various hacking projects.

I've used stock video of women from the 1910's dancing, and I realized while working on it they're all dead, and if they had children they're likely dead too. But it's weird the idea that a man or woman in their 60s could watch it and be freaked out that I've used the footage.

All I would say is, imagine you found someone doing it to your family photographs. It's up to you if you feel fine with it. I'm not judging, it's odd their family pictures ended up in the public domain, yet this can happen to any photograph. It's unlikely anyone connected will see whatever you do.

Fingers crossed if they have any living relatives they don't see!

I use toilet paper from shops. Will they arrest me too?
Never again.

They do have a clue though, their estimations update when they get more information. When the chance was at 6% it was estimated to drop to almost zero the closer it got to Earth, due to a better understanding of its speed and direction.
If it wasn't for scientists, you wouldn't be online.

By the way if I somehow managed to sell 100 albums for 1 euro each, that would pay for my food for almost two weeks. Do you know how great that would be? Force your friends to buy my music, threaten your family.

To no avail, due to audiences that don't care?
It's great you're trying to do that, that's what I'm saying we need more of, and we also need audiences that care.

The idea of people using AI to generate dumb social media posts for engagement is actually sickening. What a waste of time.

That's ok, there's a lot of kids that have been trained on Call Of Duty that can emerge, all it takes is a few lengthy power cuts and you'll have loads of Rambos.

It's bad enough as it is with egotistical nuts, fame hungry morons, everyone trying to be noticed, and the majority of art that people put out is total wank. If you think otherwise, I'm sorry.
AI is sadly not going to go away.
People need to choose what they consume and who they wish to support.

Otherwise the future is a landscape of drivel, works that echo other works, AI trained on its own output, but the original sources, always musicians and artists that never got paid.
And while the technology may be fun for a user, it will ultimately cause more isolation for real artists.
comment in response to

The work of true music fans and writers of the future will be to seek out actual new music and talent by actual humans, and spread that work around, to celebrate that, to investigate a little bit, and to see if the people that make art are nice people, if they are worthy of praise.
comment in response to
post
There gets to a point even as a music fan where it's overwhelming the sheer number of small artists that put their work out, and this is only going to get more and more hard for everyone as people with zero talent pay for AI to smush together stolen works and spew out 'new' tracks in seconds.
comment in response to
post
So what is there to do?
Well it would be nice if humans making actual art were celebrated by other humans, that would be a start. If radio hosts and music writers went out and wrote about music or featured it without waiting for it to be submitted to them. If they could actually be bothered.

All this has me asking as both a small obscure indie musician and a music fan, do I even care anymore, I know what's coming, and it ultimately doesn't matter how many legal walls go up, AI generated theft art, music and in the near future while generated movies- its already too late.

All the while the mainstream radio friendly pop and rock acts seem to play the same circuits over and over every year, you can look at most big festival line-ups today and see most of the same acts from 20 years ago. There's a stagnation.

Good journalism is pretty much dead at this point. Instead of seeking out new music, music writers sit back and expect to be paid by 'services' such as Submithub, these leaches have ruined music blogs as far as I can tell, incentivising a pay-to-be-possibly-noticed model by desperate musicians.
comment in response to

There's loads of problems with what is left of 'The music industry', and it starts with a failure of journalism and audiences that are happy to allow computer algorithms to select what they hear next on streaming services that pay musicians nothing really at all.
It's all laziness.

Hi Matt. For some reason a few years ago you blocked me on evil shit Twitter after you posted something and I responded with a gif of Alan Partridge, you then posted that perhaps you were a bit like Alan Partridge. I did not mean to hit a nerve. I love you Super Hans.

It was surprisingly not as hard as I thought it would be to trace back David Lynchs family name all the way back to a small town in co. Cavan. I wonder if he looked into it. His family was quite well documented.

Some kind of genetic issue, perhaps someone ate too much moldy bread and it messed them up.

Lynch. Traced his surname back to Cavan in the early 1800s just before it travelled over to the US.

Her album White Chalk was a massive change, very dark and spooky piano album truly amazing work.
To Bring You My Love is probably my favourite of hers, Long Snake Moan is such a great track.
She's an amazing musician.

I'm a very very distant cousin of his. We're talking like 6 generations back.

Look at you here, struggling to decide what to do.
You know what you need to do.
You need to buy my music for whatever the fuck you want.
You need to tell everyone on your foot fetish forum.
You need to scratch my band name into strangers foreheads and get in serious trouble with the police.

Buy my fucking music.
Buy it.
Do it.
You can buy it for nothing.
You can buy it for less than a coffee.
You can go mad and if you're rich you can put in 500 euro for a single album. Whatever you want!
Total economic freedom!

This offer ends when the month does!
Once it ends it's done, that's it, prices go back up and the beautiful communistic Marxist ideal turns back into Capitalism.
