AI-Generated Music Vocals Are Crazy (New Tech)

In this video I'm exploring a handful of tools that are blowing my mind lately around AI-generate music. I honestly believe some of the next biggest hit songs will be generated with AI.

Tools mentioned:

I wanted to add an epilogue to this video. I don't think of any of this technology will take the jobs of real vocalists. In the same way electronic music didn't kill real instrumental band music. It will likely create a new genre of music and hits will be produced. However, just like any other artform, people will value talented humans doing amazing things. Talented vocalists will always have a place.

"If you're not impressed by the AI technology I'm sharing, give it a month, " is a nice little catchphrase for this rapidly growing field.

I am in awe of how you can stay up on all of the AI and the speed that is being released. I love your videos and your website! Keep it up and I'll do my best to stay as caffeinatied enough to keep up!

I would like to talk a little bit about synthesizer V, or as the Synthv community knows it, this software is a vocal synthesizer like VOCALOID, UTAU and CeVIO, which from its beginnings without AI integration created really good and clear voices (in fact the voice you use in this video, Eleanor forte standard, is a voice that is not classified as AI, Eleanor has an AI voice but you have to buy it). but with the integration of 100% AI voices, these voices became the most realistic they have ever been, with the ability to now sing in languages other than the voice provider's own and allow for integrated vocal modes.
As for the replacement of real singers is a topic that has always been under discussion since 2004 with the launch of VOCALOID, but beyond replacing I think these synthetic voices can coexist with the voices of real singers and in fact generate new genres as is the current VOCALOID fandom and its unique songs.
Finally, I would like to point out that synthesizer V demonstrates a good use of AI, because instead of stealing the work of the artists like generative AI art does and not even giving credit to these artists, synthesizer V pays the voice providers, who give full consent to use their voices in the creation of these AI voices.

I thought that in the end technology would take over our boring tasks and we’d make music, write books, and create art. Turns out that AI is taking over these tasks while it will still be humans flipping the burgers at McDonald’s 😂

2:50 The files Matt played here are the human inputted recordings, not the AI's generations
The AI here combines the input recordings to create all of the different audios below the row Matt was playing

Almost 100k! So deserved and you are a big inspiration to make as good AI videos as you :) keep it up Matt! Thanks for the content🔥

As a singer/songwriter myself, I definitely see how this will effect the music industry. There'll be OVERLOAD of songs on the market - some shit, some good, some may become hits BUT I do think that there will continue to be demand for real 'organic/analogue' singers and artists. Especially for live performances, but also for recording. The emotional nuances that a real human being can create are not going to be replaced by AI any time soon.

And especially when it comes to a live performance, would you rather see a band or a live orchestra playing at a festival or a machine that produces the music out of a computer?

I have started experimenting with Chat GPT to write songs and it is fun! But there's a lot of tweaking involved, so in the end I basically change most of what it writes or switch it around. In addition, I don't want to deprive myself of the creative process by outsourcing all of it to a machine. The process is part of the reason why we artists create music.

SynthV is already quite popular in doing songs, you should look more around "Dawn" from the "demo" of Solaria, is an actual song made by a quite popular Vocaloid Producer, so people who used to make Vocaloid Songs are dabling into SynthV as well!

AI voice technologies fill me with giddy excitement and I can't wait to see how they will progress and evolve. Most development has centred around trying to get natural-sounding vocals, not that it's a bad thing, but the user-friendliness of the interface leaves a lot to be desired. Presently, lyric/note entry is a convoluted hindrance - I would like to just drag my recorded vocals into the plugin, have it parse the notes, cadence and lyrics vs having to enter it manually.

I have been playing drums for 40 plus years. There is a great satisfaction and I deep meditative pleasure in playing an instrument that non musicians will never understand. Pushing a button to create a song will never replace the human quality of interacting with other musicians to make music.

[miketesla]

Real musical skills and talent will never be replaced by AI, and AI needs humans to emulate their real musical skills and talent. What AI can do is to help speeding up the creativity process. For instance, if a music producer doesn't have real vocals for their song yet. They can use AI to generate synth vocals and give a great idea of how their instrumental track would sound with vocals added to it, and how they wish the vocalist to sing the lyrics.

I'm becoming addicted to your videos:)) Thank you for sharing!

[GlennKramer]

I can imagine a future when the Grammy Awards needs to add a new AI category. I can also see a future when a Grammy winner gets called out for using AI in their hit song, similar to the drama of Milli Vanilli 😮

For a few months I've played around with an AI music thingy called Boomy. You might get a kick out of it (it's still quite primitive but interesting). Great video, thanks for those finds!

As a lifelong composer / music producer, I can see that these tools will provide extra dimension to music creation, which is great.
But I will always hire my fellow musicians first.

[klaustrussel]

I use AI to help me in my musical project ( I use generated music for the shorts I make with my AI avatar), I still make covers and original tracks myself, but I think that everybody should have an AI assistant for professional tasks. Can't wait to see what will happen in the next few years 🧙‍♂

I just subscribed! One, because you do a great job at what you do on here, but mostly because of what you've done with your website, which i will be getting right on after this and hopefully I'll have signed up in time to get your newsletter today, but im mostly excited about seeing what you've created as your website and all you've collected, because your collections and categorized input showing your favorite tools is actually priceless to anyone who's serious about creating with AI and it not only saves people an enormous amount of time finding tools, but most importantly helps people find "the right tool for them" that will help them achieve their greatest potential and that's truly an absolutely priceless resource to have available, so i really hope people appreciate what you've put together and what you continually offer them as things constantly change. I haven't even been there yet and i know i sure appreciate it.

I know you said you created a favorites list and from what you said it sounded like one is actually pretty long (which is understandable) and one is short, which im assuming is because it's a spread of the top apps that one would need in order to cover all the basic aspects of creating a whole song...? Or did i get that wrong...?

Having a current "Top A List" of the best apps to cover lyrics, vocals, percussion, instruments, mixing, and of course mastering, would be an amazing list to have, especially if the Top A List was updated regularly, but still continued to include all of your past Top picks as well. That would be a great Gold list to offer.

Note: I have many years of song recordings on tape that literally fill 5 drawers of a large dresser and two more drawers of digital recordings of songs i still haven't done anything with since i originally wrote and recorded them and the thought of transferring it all to usable formats is absolutely overwhelming to think about and i was wondering if theres a specific AI program or even an app that can help me with transferring it all before i end up loosing some of my very best work. Any input at all would be much appreciated.

At 2:50 that wasnt the ai whistling that was a person whistling to give the ai a sense of the melody and then the ai creates sounds using the same melody with any instrument of vocal you tell it to use. One of my favorite features

At least 30 years ago I imagined an AI like machine that could get my music thoughts to convert them into a great new kind of symphonic songs. With MusicLM we are approaching that goal, just in the middle of the path still.
