Forget everything you know about how songs are made. AI has transformed music creation. In this podcast, we explore how artificial intelligence can generate vocals, instrumentals, lyrics—even entire songs in the style of your favorite artists. The results range from brilliant to bizarre to bone-chilling. Music producers are harnessing AI's creative power. But some fear massive job losses and music's "human" element fading away. As engineers build bots to produce pop songs and hip hop beats, what becomes of the craft? Can a computer compose a truly moving melody? Will you unknowingly stream the first AI-written number-one hit? From holographic idols to synthesizing lost legends, the music industry is betting big on AI. But are they out of tune with listeners or ahead of the curve? Join me, Marc Hogan, as I investigate how AI tools are influencing music from creation to promotion. Celebrities, songwriters, and CEOs confront the promises and perils of algorithmic culture. Each episode is a glimpse into future of music where the only limit is artificial imagination and anything can be simulated. When technology has access to all the world's sounds, what new songs are possible? Will AI spur diversity or homogeny? This podcast peeks under the hood at how your music is made and asks if you'll notice when the robots take over your playlist. The future of music is here—and it's weirder than you can imagine. The era of human-only music may fade out, but music will live on.
