Yeah, I'd only noticed it because of the identical vote counts, and I was just clarifying ow things worked in prior instances to prevent the vote from getting messed up in that way. I wasn't saying you did anything wrong, just adding my two cents in from way after the fact.

I agree. Why would anyone want to listen to a bunch of music that's just different prompts sent to different AI generators? If you're writing your own lyrics and want those to be made into a song, you could collaborate with any number of human musicians who would be willing to do that, or even just ...

Sockpuppet Hello, and thank you for your email I will be out of the office For the next two weeks I should return on the seventeenth. If you have an urgent need, Please contact Sondra in Accounts Receivable I will be spending my time on the beach And I hope to remain very far out of reach I hope th...

Pringle Can : This is really reminding me of something but I cannot figure out what. It's when the vocals come in. I like the urgency in the vocals. Things start to get a little cluttered and chaotic or noisy for me in the middle. Ha, wow, I like the way the vocals up, I enjoyed the unhinged energy...

It's the final stretch! I am joining the complete reviews club! It's awesome in here, there's a snack bar and massage chairs, y'all should try to get in too Paco del Stinko : We've got some good classic 50s rock going on here. Maybe shades of Johnny Cash and Dick Dale? Vocals could use a bit of boos...

Do you have control over the chord progression? The melodies? The harmonies? The performance? The rhythm? The timing? The vocal treatment? The mastering? AI can be part of tools. Heck, I use Logic's AI drummer most of the time, and it does a pretty passable job, but sometimes I have to take over fro...

Entropic Pincushion : This is the one made up of other people’s wins? It’s interesting. So presumably there is a way to determine at what point a particular song winner is. Like the random band I was in. Or More Than Soup. I actually like the extended version better because I can grab onto it more....

Another batch of reviews. I'm feeling grumpy tonight so I apologize in advance to folks who got stuck in this section thanks to the playlist shuffle. Also I'm in the midst of a pain flareup which isn't helping matters. But I'll try to get to 75% because this has gone on long enough. Pigfarmer Jr : T...

In case anyone else would benefit from this, I've added a thing so that you can unshuffle the names on the front page, so that if you've taken notes on which songs you want to vote for you can easily find them in the list. Just go to https://songfight.org/?noshuffle=1 and it'll keep the songs in alp...

That's the same generator that was responsible for the "future of music" entries, incidentally.

Okay I ended up doing a version of Entropic Pincushion where the selected granule follows the duration of the song (i.e. the very beginning of Golfpunk Drives a Cadillac, the very end of Almost No Regrets). it doesn't sound any more cohesive but at least it sounds a bit more interesting. winners-pro...

I thought about making it take the segment proportionally into each song based on where it was on the overall timeline (e.g. first chunk of Golfpunk, last chunk of Love Magic, middle chunk of Love Me a Little Bit More, etc.) to make it into an actual, like, song?ish thing with a progression and ever...

Entropic Pincushion : Was it a random sample or was there a pattern? Be funny if each section was taken in order but from different songs. I wish whoever was changing the radio stations on that ancient tube radio would decide on something. To be fair, there is something almost hypnotic about it aft...

Yeah some of the names are brilliant, especially on Alchemy.

I'm glad they changed the name of the "acoustic to electric" guitar preset though (formerly "sex change," ugh)

Okay, my goal is to make it to the half-way point tonight. My enthusiasm is flagging, though. At least some of the stuff that had me busy and stressed for this week got postponed, although that's because there was a fucking COVID exposure at my choir rehearsal and everyone's getting sick and I hope ...

Never mind, I'm in, with a guest star (my robot vacuum cleaner which decided to start up while I was recording vocals and I decided it actually improved the sound)

I am ironically way too busy to find time to work on this right now.

Here's my first set. Why doesn’t itunes let you shuffle a list of songs? What a terrible app. Anyway. The Windows ones didn’t do it any better. Annoying app devs. It used to but it's gotten really awful. What I ended up doing was stupid, but I created a smart playlist set to match only things from ...

Entropic Pincushion : I see what you did Just because you can do this Does not mean you should <3 : Reminded me of Bob Rivers - The Chimney Song Not my cup of tea Pringle Can : This sounds like it is Held together with duct tape And could fall apart The stars misalign Seems you always hate my stuff...

For purposes of finding lyrics in 3 pages, is there a way to instead have phpBB show all the posts on one page? No, and I'd worry about what it'd do to forum performance if anyone could just unfurl an entire ginormous thread at any time. Every thread has its own RSS feed though ( here is the one fo...

Okay it's been a few days since my last batch of reviews, because I got busy with album release preparation and a few other things. I am a busy bee. But I'll try to get through a bunch more reviews, because, well, y'know. The John Benjamin Band : I feel like the vocals could be a bit louder in the m...

The length issuue is purely one of display, and is caused by encoders not setting the total length tag combined with players trying to guess the length based on a bitrate estimate and getting it wrong. It’s an extremely longstanding issue with mp3s, and even if everything does get set correctly many...
