Haha and Wu-Tang can it be so simple.
When I first read it I had to check the date of the article incase it was written anywhere near April 1st.

Really can you DM me a link to the article please so as not to spam the threadā¦ cheers fella 
Everyone on a team is supposed to get credit. I can see on this forum and elsewhere Derbyshire and Kraftwerk getting credit. Where is Worrellās credit for the ways he pushed synth music?

Iād heard of all those you mentioned, who on this forum doesnāt know who Kraftwerk is?
Iād never really heard of Worrell before his post so heās probably got a point.
That point was made then we moved on until you turned up asking who cares.
Probably just best we just move on and enjoy the beatmaking

Donāt want to derail this thread anymore that it has been, but I feel like my point was proven in that comment. Thereās no hip hop without Parliament. This thread is about hip hop music and race is absolutely ingrained into the history and culture of hip hop.
To get back on topic: Hans Zimmers body of work is insane, has anyone else been blown away by just how much heās done? I just knew he made a lot of soundtracks but it seems like heās made every soundtrack since the 80s

Always loved the juxtaposition of that song and the violence in the movie. I found out that that song was written for lute in 1536!

Yeah i saw it the other day, pretty entertaining video. What are your thoughts on it?
@flipinfantile to be honest, the production and creativity the video maker put into this is worthy of the watch in and of itself!
But it does give me a few ideas for AI and working with my digitakt :
- create some AI generated samples + loops/breaks which I can then load as instruments and build a song out of
- get some wacky inspiration - even some ridiculous rhymes to force myself to make sound good otherwise a beat under
- imagine one day an integration with a digitakt to auto generate some project (sounds and patterns) based on some AI prompts. Then use that as a creative starting point to then improvise and tweak at will and make it my own.
As with most of the different domains applications of AI - it is most powerful when used as a sidekick and in the beatmaking case and as this video points out, can be fun to explore just for the sake of it. But not as a finished product in and of itself.
I wonder if a future Elektronauts beat battle may have an element of AI and prompts published back here to share as one of the parameters in the future? Hmmmm 
How about you? What does it make you think of?

Ignoring all the ethical issues around ai consent, copyright etc. (We need radical system change).
Iām pretty excited for all the possibilities too. New stuff is coming in fast. I just hope I can control myself from automating the entire process of music making, because where would the fun be in that.
Also I like being on the path of mastery, and i hope all these new options wonāt fuk that up. But iām pretty confident it will turn out okay 
And yeah i would be up for a challenge around an ai tool, i like your idea!
Hey fam - just subtmitted my beat. Would have loved to work longer on it as the textures in all these submitted material is fun to play with. Got alot on the go this weekend so Iām submitting it āearlyā.

Looking forward to hearing @everyoneās tracks and True Romance was a neat unexpected watch thanks for the hype @surfacescan 
I used to love Christian Slater as a kid

Quick question. It will definitely run out of space on soundcloud. Do you know what can be deleted if necessary?
Second question, why not create a YouTube channel to post the tracks? this could solve storage problems. (maybe one already exists).
What do you think about?
