Solitude (Original AI Steven Wilson Song) - The E Major

This is an original song in the style of Steven Wilson.
I made this song with the help of Udio AI and the vocals are from an AI model similar to Steven Wilson's voice.

I uploaded the full song on SoundCloud. You can find it in my Bio from my Link Tree.

The musical equivalent of an inflatable doll. The horror! When AI writes and performs our music it might as well all end. Fear of a blank planet anyone?

[@ErickMcNerney]

Almost 100% agree. When looking at this AI question though, I try to ask myself "what would Eno do?" And I think he'd use it in order to get it to do things it wasn't designed for. That's what I'm trying to mess with. But to copy other artists, create hokey songs about erections and pb&j sandwiches? No thanks.

[@benji0093]

Would be super funny if SW uploaded a video soon after hearing this - a video of himself performing this xD

[@the_e_major]

No way 😂😅

[@peterkazmierczak1805]

It's insane how close this comes to replicating his voice. There are parts which were a bit of a departure from his vocal personality too, but for the most part it did the job. Even the lush harmonies at the end, I can tell this program has pulled anywhere from the early 2000s to just the last few years for reference. The chord choices, structures, and voicings are certainly in the same vein. It's cool, but that's as much as I'll give it. I don't want to support this, but it's a nice little experiment and should remain as such.

[@RodolfoStanic]

Uncanny valley hit strong on this one. It really sounds like a computer is trying to fool me into thinking this is Steven Wilson singing. Both terrifying and amazing 😂

[@AXP-64]

human creativity is mortally wounded. Future is limited by AI

[@andrewgroves6718]

I wonder what seven Wilson would say about this.

[@DTArchive]

"Soul gets squeezed out. Edges get blunt."

[@rahard]

this is just crazy. spill the prompt. I want to create more of this.

[@VBQX]

I love anything SW tbh. This is dope!

[@MacAddict153]

This is bringing US to the edge of danger. What I mean by that is that even what I write now could be turned into a song. I am a die hard fan of Stevens work since I've heard "Open Car". This kind of abuse has to STOP or we will be fighting robots physically sooner than you think. Greetings from Poland.

[@DTArchive]

Agreed 100%. We cannot allow AI to supplant human creativity, nor can we allow people to profit off of AI-generated works which required no or minimal human labor.

[@jeanjacqueslundi3502]

That's not the right attitude. You are already creating a war in your head. AI is gonna be part of our lives. It's HOW we use it and face it that mattes. Don't fearmonger if you want to be part of making it positive.

[@pariacyrus8634]

I actually love this ,wow!

[@anthonydahl5998]

How much time have you spent on the song? I'm really curious. I too am discovering both Suno and Udio right now. They are amazing tool and I'm having so much fun ! AI is the future, we just have to have good boundaries around it. Great song sir.

[@gustavorodrigues2903]

I admire the technical ability to do this, but as a fan, I find it immensely disrespectful. Anyway, we've entered a strange era, but the music remained good at least.

[@PCmaatje]

😱 OMG.... I absolutely like it, although I shouldn't since it is completely computer generated and no human has contributed...

[@Blesssun]

OMG, I amdmit I love it more than I would ever think.

[@daipayanbhattacharjee3137]

Great , now everyone will start making Steven Wilson music. One of the few things in the world that is special, unique and exclusive is gone. Feed some goddam AI model and it will spit out music. No matter how well it can replicate, you will always know that there is nothing original or inspiring about it.

[@doggity5149]

AI music is an intersting point of debate. What if it becomes SO good, that it actually produces high quality music with depth and feel? When listening to an absolutely astounding piece of music, Is it suddenly crap when we learn it was made by a computer? Is abilty (to compose) more important than the actual music itself? I dont know. Anyway, I've always found solice in that only I can make the music I make. In this case every human being is unique, and nothing can ever take that away

[@orrimorri]

It will replace a human artist if we dont destroy it. Fuck AI

[@Boukouvalas1979]

Was the music created with AI as well? I mean, only by the AI. If so, what was the process? Feeding the AI with musical references? I loved the voice. I still think this is a hoax and SW is really singing the song... Lovely music too! I like it better than the majority of the tracks of his last couple of solo albums. Apart from that being a question of personal taste, it also means that humans can progress while AI cannot...

[@the_e_major]

Yes, the music was also created by AI. So as the voice model of Steven Wilson. I guided the whole music by prompting. That's how most AI tools work. It needs a person behind the system to know how to guide its features. The process definitely took me time and energy with a lot of trials and errors and I don't think a lot of people can prompt very well or else the internet should have been full of original AI music from famous people.

[@ErickMcNerney]

I admire the exercise in demonstrating the advancement of AI. However, on a philosophical level, I think there needs to be a striving to develop and create something. It needs to be borne out of strife, trials and adversity. Otherwise, what is the purpose of creating? Just to enjoy it? It's like taking music into the realm of consumption for the sake of consumption. Fast food. The commodification of music. I think the only proper way to use AI is to abuse the hell out of it and create something nobody would ever be able to create because the AI wasn't expressly designed to create it. Other than that, it can all burn up.

[@philhickman5564]

When you program AI can you please put “A good” in front

[@gunterbohles2543]

If we didn't have Steven, we wouldn't have someone to copy??? Yes, this thing came close, but I won't disclose where not, so "they" can't learn from my comment.

[@jeanjacqueslundi3502]

Pretty interesting. So do you need musical background to be able to use this program?

[@the_e_major]

It definitely helps but it's not needed

[@Boukouvalas1979]

Where can I find the lyrics?

[@jonasonyoutube1337]

Con you please tell us: How long did it take you to make this?

[@the_e_major]

It usually depends on a lot of factors, but this particular one took me a full day to make.

[@jonasonyoutube1337]

@@the_e_major Thank you. I would have expected way more time! We have a cool future ahead. The music's great. Wonder what Steven would think about this.

[@the_e_major]

I wonder the same thing as well

[@jonasonyoutube1337]

@the_e_major it would be super cool if you could do a "making of" video once you make another steven wilson AI Song. Id really like to learn more about the process.

[@XiyuYang]

It's impressive but not quite there, uncanny valley effect for sure

[@sims774]

I don't understand, is this a Steven Wilson song ?

[@the_e_major]

I think you missed the description, I created this with the help of Udio AI and Steven's voice is just an AI model. So no, This isn't a new official track from Steven Wilson.

[@sims774]

@@the_e_major Thank you for your reply. I was afraid of this answer. All this is extremely disturbing and distressing.

A very good forgery but that's all it is.

[@the_e_major]

well I'm just happy to be able to make music that I really want to listen to. Aside from this one that is highly inspired by Steven Wilson and his music, I'm making really awesome original ones as well. I might share them in the future.

[@DTArchive]

@@the_e_major Are you making original songs *yourself*, or just pushing buttons on a computer, and letting AI do all the work?

[@the_e_major]

@@DTArchive actually both.

[@samuelaugsburger4982]

Please post original content. Stop attempting to profit from the unethical appropriation of someone's voice and mannerisms. This is not flattery, nor even imitation, it's a THEFT of PERSONALITY and one more step along the path toward the DEATH of the self. We cannot overcome what we dare not recognize.

UNA FALTA DE RESPETO A LA MÚSICA AL MUSICO EN SI Y AL CREADOR CON SU PROPIA VOZ, LO ARTIFICIAL SOLO TRAE FRIALDAD AL MUNDO

[@feelxmusic]

I have to admit: great song. BUT: Where is humanity going? A human being is an individual being, so is music - a NATURAL force. A computer and technical evolution is NOT. Simple as that.

[@the_e_major]

Music is being created with the help of computers for years now. Almost all the instruments you hear in the new songs are digital recordings from virtual instruments or samples. The same amount of digital processing is being applied to vocals as well. This right here I think is just a step in the future in which all of the process is being made easier by computers. Isn't that the whole point of technology? To make things easier for humanity...

[@feelxmusic]

@@the_e_major Well just listen to the whole Beatles catalogue - the blueprint of "real" music. And your point of "technology makes things easier for humanity": it already leads to this that children/teenagers don`t even start to practice on an instrument..And believe me it`s true, i`m also an active music teacher. We know that it is human nature to have completely different arguments/perceptions over certain matters but technology doesn`t just do great things for sure....And now i`m back to practicing dude;-)

[@the_e_major]

@@feelxmusic I can see your point but I don't think people would stop learning different instruments. Virtual instruments are there for quite some time and a lot of them sound quite real. But people are still learning instruments. Also let's not forget about live music. People like to see their favorite artists perform live. That's something AI can't replace. At least not anytime soon.

[@feelxmusic]

@@the_e_major I see you still have that old-school approach;-) And yes, live music is what REALLY matters, too...

[@rude_people_die_young]

@@the_e_major I agree ONE purpose of technology is to make things easier for humanity. One purpose of humanity is to ensure technology is used ethically. Whilst I might listen to or tap my foot to EDM I consider it to comprise much if any musical talent. Ditto for almost anything created by AI - it lacks talent.

[@lithiumsapphire8935]

wow this song is better than most of the steven's songs. but very good analysis because the rhythmic values, chord progressions, vocal usages and everything is just like his work. i would definitely believe that it is an original song by him if it wasn't mentioned that this song belonged to ai. wilson should definitely listen to this work!
