Hyper Potions (who did that trailer track for Sonic Mania) kinda opened the flood gates for me to more chiptune/“kawaii” is the only way I can think of describing it. But here are some feel good times if you need them.

Her stuff can be hit or miss with me, but I’ve really been enjoying Lana Del Rey’s latest album from like a month ago. There’s some really moving and beautiful moments in it. I definitely lean towards indie and pop in my tastes, but I like to keep up with the latest happenings in the music world 🙂 [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/2xtKhqbNBoY/maxresdefault.jpg "Lana Del Rey - Margaret (Audio) ft.

Recently heard someone reference the Cranberries and have been listening to them a bit. This was one of their tunes I really liked. The early/mid 90s always feels so magical, nostalgia is a powerful drug. 🙂 [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/5LLoGYDtsRk/maxresdefault.jpg "I Still Do") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LLoGYDtsRk) ---

Some of my favourite concerts I attended were for The Cranberries in the 90s. One of my favourite bands and I miss Dolores. ---

Never saw them live. For me their catalog has a lot of meh, but when they’re good, they’re great. The way she recorded and layered vocals was really cool. Grim subject matter, but another banger: [The Icicle Melts - YouTube](https://youtu.be/aqbZJpKuamg) ---

I love their first three albums and some of the fourth but didn’t really get into anything they put out in the 2000s. There are a few 90s bands that I feel didn’t evolve into the 2000s along with my evolving tastes so sadly I didn’t keep up with them. ---

Through this: > **[Ed Sheeran threatens to quit music if found guilty in copyright infringement...](https://consequence.net/2023/05/ed-sheeran-quit-music-copyright-infringement/)** > > The singer is currently on trial to determine whether his 2014 hit "Thinking Out Loud" rips off Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On."

Is it immediately their property? I really hope Sheeran wins. ---

I’m not really a Sheeran fan, but if someone can copyright a 4-chord progression, it would completely destroy the songwriting industry. I hope he wins as well. AI music an is interesting topic. It has been in the news lately because of an “AI” Drake song that was going around. But as far as I know, it wasn’t generated with a prompt like with AI-generated images–someone would have had to compose and produce the song, and then cloned Drake’s voice onto it using AI. Of course, using someone’s voice without their consent is a little gross just on the surface, but the technology has interesting potential. Grimes recently created a site to allow people to clone her voice with her consent, and even allows a 50/50 split for commercial use. I played around with it for a little bit and I do think it has some potential as a tool in that scenario if the artist wants to embrace it. The way it works is you upload a sound file with your voice to the site and it transforms your voice into Grimes’ voice on a new file. I was messing around with it and made this version of All Star as an experiment… [![](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pb825F-ljY4/hqdefault.jpg "GrimesAI - All Star") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb825F-ljY4) I haven’t seen any public generative AI model that can spit out a song in an artist’s voice or style with a prompt (I think Google might have one, but hasn’t released it). Much like with images, though, it would need to be trained with an artist’s music in order to be able to replicate that voice or style, so I really hope the lawsuits currently going on in the visual art world set good precedents that protect artist’s rights. ---

No, but this one drag queen channel I watch on YouTube regularly uses the “zero points” clip as a cutaway gag 😆 ---

For once a song with German lyrics that I listen to at the moment: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/yTaqfFrWF4I/maxresdefault.jpg "Julia Engelmann - Das Lied (Official Video)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTaqfFrWF4I) [Spotify Link](https://open.spotify.com/track/5Jr6xA22hh0IxMm8oKHEEr?si=0362441600684817) Translation: I’m not a fancy hipster Got more of a nerd profile I’m full of fantasies Talk soft, think hard I don’t surf the retro wave I surf the web Looking for reading glasses frames I read books on my bed And every now and then I think I don’t fit in anywhere And no one seems like me No one seems close to me Why do I feel different and what does that mean? Because we’re all different and that makes us all the same. It’s not about who It’s that you love It’s not about how much, but that you give It’s not about winning, it’s about fighting. It’s not about the song, it’s about you dancing And then and then and then I meet you You see me and you listen to me and you’re there for me You take away all my shadows You make my vision clear Make me real, make me real and make me visible I like the way you and I Spin the earth for us We are alone together That makes you beautiful to me And that we are not perfect Makes it all the more perfect It’s funny that I I didn’t realise until now It’s not who you love It’s that you love It’s not how much, it’s that you give It’s not about winning, it’s about fighting. It’s not about the song, it’s about you dancing Maybe it’s not about the what It’s about the how Maybe it’s not about physics It’s more about imagination It’s not about the happy ending It’s just about this day It’s not about how loud, it’s about what you say It’s not about possessions It’s about what makes you happy It’s not about the joke It’s about you laughing It’s not about who It’s about loving It’s not about how much, it’s about giving. It’s not about winning, it’s about fighting It’s not about the song, it’s about you dancing It’s not about the song, it’s about you dancing [Previous page](https://discuss.grouvee.com/t/just-music-talk/11242.md?page=1)
