Sharing My Musical Journey: How AI Became My Creative Partner

A Journey of Musical Transformation

• If you're a songwriter or musician looking for fresh ways to bring your ideas to life, this might just inspire you to explore a whole new creative path.

• Developing my songwriting potential has become this amazing collaboration between my creativity and some exceptional AI tools.

• The process is honestly so much simpler than you might think, and I'm using these tools to breathe new life into my lyrics and musical compositions that I create on my guitar.

My Creative Process

• My workflow is straightforward and flexible.

• I upload audio files of my vocals singing original melodies with guitar, then I get really specific with my prompts—telling the AI what style I'm going for, what instruments I want, tempo changes, vocal effects, all that production stuff to help guide the music generation.

• From there, I fine-tune the results through multiple iterations, adjusting prompts and tweaking parameters ...until I get exactly the sound I want.

• When inspiration strikes, I sometimes get spontaneous and record directly into the AI platform.

• I also dig up old tracks I made in GarageBand and Logic Pro over the years and breathe new life into them with AI—it's like giving these forgotten songs a second chance to shine.

  The really fun part is when I throw my guitar riffs or chord progressions at the AI and let it jam with me to finish the songs—it sparks all these great ideas and takes my music in directions I never would've thought of, which totally surprises me every time.

• It's like having professional session musicians show up right in my living room any time of day I need them—always ready to jam, never getting tired of trying new ideas, and bringing fresh perspectives to every session.

The Independent Artist's Secret Weapon

• Using these tools has been a game-changer, especially since most of us don't have access to a full-fledged music studio or studio musicians.

• These AI platforms help me explore my musical creativity in ways I never thought possible before.

• It's honestly such a wonderful process that opens up so many creative doors.

My Go-To AI Tools

• My songwriting and music production toolkit centers on three core platforms: MOISES, SUNO Studio and PRODUCER AI.

• Sometimes I use all three to create a single song, depending on what the composition needs.

• Each tool brings something different to the table, and they complement each other beautifully.

Reviving Old Lyrics

• One of my favourite aspects of this process is uploading lyrics I've written over the past 10 years (thankfully saved on iCloud - unfortunately, anything before that got lost in the digital void!).

• There's something magical about breathing life back into these words that have been sitting dormant, waiting for the right musical arrangement.

Creating Visual Stories

• Each music video I create is like a little art experiment where I blend different creative approaches.

• I start by making my own artwork—whether that's drawing digitally in PROCREATE or going old school with paint and paper.

• Then I use my favourite AI tools like MIDJOURNEY, NANO BANANA, and CANVA to generate visuals that I weave together with my original pieces, creating something totally unique.

• Finally, I bring everything into CANVA where I edit and assemble all these elements into the final video. It's like creating a visual collage that tells the story of each song.

• It's incredible how these tools let you create a complete multimedia experience for your music.
