Nice, with a proper sound system, this is a kicker song.

Are you uploading to YT or YT Music any of your creations?

I have a distributor, so I send some music to Spotify / Youtube Music / Amazon / Deezer. Sometimes Apple Music (they're pretty picky over what gets through). Two personas, one for rock / metal music (The real me, I guess) and one for everything else / variety / comedy / experimentation. With the rock persona, I actually developed a "fictional band" before it was a thing. Came up with some characters, gave them names, backstories and so forth. Based on different aspects of my personality, likes and whatnot. Developed a bit of lore too.

I often make videos for Youtube / visualisers for Tiktok, Instagram and so on, but it is time consuming, so not for everything. More often than not it would be songs with Lyrics that I publish outside of Suno. Occasionally, I'll send instrumentals too. I generally take some time with each release and not crank out too much too fast. Now with more people actually participating, listening, commenting and interacting on Suno, I share there more frequently... that's essentially my music test lab now. Previously it was dead, nobody listened, commented, liked... at least it's bit different now with the folks from here and the listeners who have grown over there too.

The edginess comes from one of my custom models which I typically use for industrial / horror stuff. It was well suited for that merged chill, slightly chilling vibe.

most useful custom I made was the one with field recordings. distortion noise, arbitrary frequencies. Wanted to create more this month but credits are dwindling fast.

When they introduced Suno Studio a while back I bit the bullet and took out an annual Premiere sub, I justified it to myself in that many of the other "luxuries" in life had been taken away, ie, movies closing down, not so heavy into gaming as I used to be, not much nightlife to chase these days, so I could re-allocate that towards Suno. Probably the best purchase I've made in a long time, as it fuels my musical creativity which also drives some of my visual stuff (and vice versa) and even my technical side. I tend to get what I want out of it no matter how heavy handed I think I'm being with the generate button, with a few credits left over by the end of the month. I figure, if it did so happen that I ran out of credits, I would just top up and sacrifice something else, like one of my wife's streaming TV services :p

Yeah well, it's a worthy sub!. The free 50 a day afterwards also not too bad.))

I did consider studio, but not really my thing, I get decent results using normal methods, I don't really like getting my hands that dirty with stems and such, and generally just regenerate using the same track if there was a mistake or want a different track. Studio can definitely be useful.

But I find stem extraction costs waaay too much per song to justify it, it costs 10 tokens just to fix the mistake and regenerate and tweak it a bit where needed.

So generally I just double check my work before generation and such, rarely run into issues these days, with a "bad" generation.

Yeah, I'm so used to FL Studio and CoolEdit ( Audition ) been using it since 2002, so I also thought let me just stick to what I know.
Pro is fine for now ))
 
So I guess I fell for the hype initially, and thought Studio would be more than it actually is. I was a little disappointed by it, but now some time later I see the usefulness of it. I have a couple of DAWs as well, not that I'm a pro or anything, but I've dabbled with it for sound effects and played around for years with tweaking music and making mash-ups before AI music became a thing.

The convenience of Studio is partially the ability of tweaking things right in there Suno, it saves one from having to download, fiddle, then upload again (and lately struggling to upload, because of strict "copyright" detection). Also, the stem generation is getting better, so one can layer extra things into songs, to make "alternate versions" of an existing track. Or, add sounds effects / textures and so on. Or even stitch two completely different tracks together to make wild crazy experiments. I had actually hoped, when it first launched, that I could have track A and track B on the timeline, then generate a middle part to blend from genre 1 to genre 2, even if they were polar opposites... and that didn't quite turn out to work as well as I'd hoped at the time, but that's ok. It's getting there. I actually found different ways of accomplishing the things I wanted Studio to do, which is also fine... and having that many credits to experiment with is definitely welcome for playing and learning things. Also helps for all the other little things that cost credits, like making custom models... I wish we could have more than just 3, because now I have to decide which one to let go, and I don't want to let any of them go really... :)

ah ok, so the custom models only comes with the premium sub right? Because I can't seem to find the option to create a custom 'model' in my pro account.
 
I'm just going wild at this point - I'm setting up a website for this highly experimental project, gonna get distribution sorted so that I can listen to the songs on Apple music while driving etc - and hey.. why not? If it crashes and burns, who cares.. right? Life is not guaranteed. :cool:

Just be warned, Apple gets sticky over AI music sometimes. I've published quite a few tracks this year and the last music they allowed was December 2025. But every other platform from Spotify to Amazon and Youtube Music have had no issues with it, all my published music is there. Lately Apple seems to be getting even stricter than before. Other people sometimes have more success or luck - I suppose it depends on who the distributor is.

If you really just want to listen to it on Apple Music you can just add your tracks to your iTunes library on a PC or Mac, but nobody else would get it. If you want to share it with the world, then the distribution path is the way to go.

Yeah the one reason I haven't pulled the trigger on publishing anything, I respect artist doing it for a living, which is why I have tried getting a youtube profile up and running, which is insanely hard to say the least, but it is starting to pick up somewhat now that I have focused on african music, getting surprisingly much better views on long form videos than I did with normal music.

But honestly I should put more focus on creating custom video art and media. It is a sticky subject and really hesitant on that, I think I might eventually pull the trigger once the hype dies down and public opinion is better, it might never come, who knows.

Also I am not hiding the fact it is AI music either.

So going forward I am going to push african music and spend sometime getting more tracks listed, rebrand the channel once there is enough tracks start delisting all the old tracks, and solely focus on one type of music and use a new channel for everything else I learned a lot about listing music and what people like.

Already have a channel I really don't want to start out fresh again, and establish listener base all over again, the second channel would be just for me.

I thought I'd drop this one here.. out of my norm (a second project @OnlyOneKenobi :) ) - but an old Afrikaans protest song that I together with a friend did in 2000 while in matric. Original guitar riffs uploaded. Lyrics and a few things are off, but anyway..

Cool song, nice lyrics. I can tell you're really into this AI music stuff - keep it up, the world can never have enough music ;)
