I was doing some digital housekeeping today when I found this document I created when I sold my business. I wrote this brief guide for the next person, going step-by-step with what was required to run the business. Suffice to say, the person who took over our shop gave up on the newspaper rounds a week after taking over and when the rounds I printed for them ran out. Anyway, if you want to know how to run a newsagent (the paper delivery side of it, that is), read on…

Looped & Scaled – A Reworking of One of My Old Songs with Input from AI Tool Suno



So this time around I fed in a track called "Loops & Scales" into Suno and it spat out this shorter, cut-back version. Again, I stripped out all the AI and replaced it with my guitar parts and recorded a new improvised lead line. You can hear the original song here: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=InVMoxvk9wU&si=Dx5Nokttm3a8o3XK You can support me via http://www.patreon.com/lock

Just Riffing Along to an AI Backing Track Created From One of My Old 4-Track Recordings!



So yeah, I loaded in this crappy old 4-track recording from 1994 into Suno and it spat out the backing track you heard. I then loaded that in Logic and this is me just riffing along to it after hearing it live. Just a bit of fun… You can support me via http://www.patreon.com/lock
