@arstechnica Just wait until the ML models take over top-40's music production...

@arstechnica I started learning Italian and with it started listening to Italian music. Things sound relatively different compared to English music. I’d be curious to see this comparison across languages

@arstechnica In case anyone was wondering why so much new sucks.

This is a really cool bit of work. Seems like Rap and R&B has decayed into computer generated rifs. Im not a huge country fan (with the exception of Corb Lund!)but it does seem to be holding on.

Everyone who listens to a lot of Behemoth now realizes they're even more of an outlier.
