We get to be imperfect. When you watch the Clipse tiny desk you hear this guy geeking out because they opened the set with “Virginia.” The room was electric with his excitement; he was BEAMING the whole time. Can’t no artificial intelligence do that.

DO NOT call up the homeless shelter on thanksgiving or Xmas to see if you can pass a few plates and show your kids the “reason for the season”
The homeless shelter is not a petting zoo of human tragedy! The homeless shelter is not a drive thru nativity scene for you to enjoy!

I believe in my heart that anyone and everyone who wants to make music should do, regardless of their skill level, with whatever tools they have available
But I emphasize the word “MAKE”
Open your mouth, grab your instrument, make a sound, and do it over and over again until it sounds good to you

I’ve been trying to find ways to articulate my hatred of AI-generated music that won’t come across as snobbish, but most of what I have to say about it can be boiled down to this:
None of the artists I like in any genre, regardless of era, make music that can be accurately predicted by a computer.

I don’t think turkey is worth busting out more than a couple times a year so inject some flavor into that thing. Make a batch of whatever you toss wings in and pump those breasts full of it. Don’t be afraid, this is fifteen pounds of flavorless meat you gotta wake up. That bird put this on YOU.
