Google and AI in the music business
Aitest kitchen → Google MusicLM
Google MusicLM
Like Dall-e or MidJourney, but for music.
MusicLM Application
https://aitestkitchen.withgoogle.com/experiments/music-lm
MusicLM Examples
https://google-research.github.io/seanet/musiclm/examples/
Industry Reaction
Labels are not happy! Record labels are asking all platforms to remove ai generated content as it is copyright infringement. If Google agrees to this, then itundercuts its own fair use argument for Bard and all other generative AI products that they've made. Which is the following:
Google fair use argument in a nutshell:
The benefits of new technology such as Ai out way any potential copyright issues that may arise.
Artist Reaction
Examples -> Grimes
Grimes- 50% royalty split agreement with any artist that creates music in her likeness via AI.
Matt Kelly AI Song
I made a song completely with AI about making music at the Collier City Library, featuring recording artist Drake as the vocalist.
Tools Used to Create
Chat GPT --> Create lyrics using thefollowing prompt:
"Write lyrics in the tone of drake about thehow he loves making music at the Collier City Library.”
Google MusicLM --> Create beat with thefollowing prompt:
“trap beat melodic piano, motivating and great for thegym”
TopMediAi --> Free text to speech Aivoice generator
Copy and pasted lyrics from Chat GPT into voicegenerator using the Drake voice.
Ableton --> Put all the pieces togetherto create a track!
Lyrics!
Intro:
Yeah....
You know I've been.... everywhere in the world but,
nothing like the Collier City Library
Shoutout Mr. Bob and Mr. Greg
You know I'm in the studio like everyday...
Verse 1:
Yeah, I'm in the Collier City Library,
Feelin' inspired by the books I see,
Flipping through pages, gettin' lost in time,
I'm surrounded by stories and rhymes.
Chorus:
But it's the music that really moves me,
Got me feeling like nothing can stop me,
I love making music in this library,
It's the perfect place to set my soul free.
Verse 2:
The beats and the melodies, they come alive,
Echoing through these walls, I feel revived,
I pour my heart and my soul into every track,
And the Collier City Library's got my back.
