MUSIC

IN-DIE

Songs made by people, not prompted into existence.

My music has nothing to do with AI. The songs are written, played, sung and arranged by human beings. For me, that room must remain human: breath, skin, mistakes, timing, memory, the physical resistance of an instrument. I work with generative systems in the visual field because I see them as tools that can democratize the means of image production — giving independent creators access to forms of production that once demanded industrial budgets. But I do not want that logic to replace the human act of composing or performing music.

AI may help open the doors of visual production. In my music, it stays outside the room.

I have removed my music from Spotify and the other major streaming platforms as an act of boycott. I would rather let the songs disappear for a while than leave them inside systems I no longer choose to support. The catalogue will return soon through Subvert and Bandcamp — places closer to the idea of independent music as a relationship rather than a feed.

Until then, the images around the songs remain alive. Music videos, acoustic performances and fragments of the catalogue can still be found on my official YouTube channel.
