This is a perfect example of labels/distribution/radio/fame missing 99% of brilliance. Sumptuous. Thank you.

[@wellwellwell7868]

Shakey killed it with this project, shout out to his label tho. Dual Tones is pretty sick

[@nomada7029]

All respect to Dualtone and other supportive labels who help bring music like this to our ears.

So are you saving the best for last, ooooor? 🤔

[@adamtierney1546]

The band rush is back on track 3

[@brent3627]

i feel as though the movie titles and and synopsis' are all ChatGPT type deals and the songs are just sorta randomly assembled according to some sort of criteria, to at least avoid doubling the songs. I put 'Poop' and got a poop centered movie lol. still an awesome use of AI and a cool way to play with imagination and creativity.

[@ItsThatMarioKid1]

Yeah It feels like a fun use of ChatGPT, with all the different synopsis. Shakey has mentioned tho that he made all the titles himself. Incredible way to interact with music and make unique soundtracks.

He’s said in interviews that it’s his experimental way of getting more of their recordings to us… he had to pick the actual songs for the official album from over 100 recordings, much of which he liked as much as the chosen songs…

[@eddiebusey3652]

Is that Trex singing on mama rat

[@grandfc6201]

been listening to shakey for a long time, how'd you get these recordings!

[@wellwellwell7868]

HIs website, you can create your own album there to with his music generator, lots of different recordings on there

[@docsci]

Adding to what wellwellwell said, I believe a requirement is that you have to purchase the album Movie of the Week first, then use the embedded link to get to the site that generates your “movie”…

[@wellwellwell7868]

@@docsci You don’t have to buy the album, the generator is completely free to use on the website. It’s the first thing you see when you enter Shakey graves .com

@@wellwellwell7868 Got it… I wasn’t sure
