Spandau Ballet – True (4 AI Stems & Midi)(44.1k-16bit)
Unless you have been locked in a room with an 80`s band recording a comeback album, you cant have failed to notice the rise of AI. And that`s putting it mildly. It`s here & it`s not going away anytime soon.
Along with just the mildly mind blowing “personal assistant” thing it does, AI it seems, has another twist in its tail to tell. From what Im seeing, that stems quite heavily around music. It can do all sorts of funky stuff.
And there`s plenty of examples if you look around the web. The music side of AI is quite the rabbit-hole.
Without going into each area where AI is and will be affecting the music business too much in one go here, however tempting it is to do, for now, I`d just like to stick to what is going on with the AI stems filtering side of things. Because, I think there`s a chance many a lost multitrack may “rise from the dead” to be reconstructed or deconstructured (depending on your bias) from the final commercially released mix/masters. Right now, from the results we`ve already seen, drums, bass, vocals and instruments can all be seperated out quite readily from, well, anything. To a degree.
And its the “to a degree” that is going to be the foreseeable problem, or I suppose, already is. It`s the “mid range” instruments that look like the troublemakers. Splitting brass, strings, pianos, organs, rhodes ect, into single AI stems, at the moment, is asking quite a lot. Unless that`s already happening and I missed the memo. But, good news again is that AI and all that it brings to the music scene is thankfully, only going to get better. That means all these AI stem packs are going to sound cleaner and clearer, with less and less “artifacts” as things naturally progress in the field. In a nutshell.
So possibly sooner than we thought possible, we may have stem sets (of a sort) from all those 60`s,70`s & 80`s gems that there arent even any original multitracks for. Just think how much material has been lost because the original tape reels have perished over time, or gone up in smoke in that fire, all those missing master tapes, and DATS that .. I best stop, but I think you will get the point. AI could actually be the saving grace. One day, that 16 track “AI Multitrack” version of Jocelyn Brown`s “Somebody Else`s Guy” might just land in your inbox.
Which brings me not so swiftly round to another 80`s classic that did appear in the inbox recently, with a note attached saying “you need to hear this”. And yeah, it`s a super piece of work we think, as hopefully you will have heard via the linked videos.
And I guess in another nutshell, Spandau Ballets “True” is now well and truly up for a spot of remixing and sampling. Though I do recall someone may have already beaten everyone to the punch on the exclusive sampling of “True” in the early 90`s. But now it`s 2023 and if you can get clearance once, why not again? hehe
