As some of you know, I’ve been experimenting with generative AI which, as nice as they turned out, destroyed my DAW with an incompatibility issue.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered my Secret Mixter was Carosone, and he was experimenting with a different type of AI, a synthesizer voice VSTi (his song “Spirit is unbounded” is quite lovely). I tried the demo, loved it and bought it! https://store.dreamtonics.com/product/editor-svstudio-pro/

Going through Carosone’s library, I discovered his acapella Being, and his words moved me. I decided to honour his words using an AI voice melody overlaying my backing track.

The time it took from start to finish took the entire three weeks, very close to the deadline. Most of that time was developing the melody then tweaking it just so. Lots of tweaking!

I added my own Bridge to compliment his words and the song. I hope you all love this song as much as I do!


—————————————————————————

[Verse]
I’m pleased you like my body yet I’m not my body
I’m pleased you say I’m cunning yet I’m not my mind
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy.

[Verse]
My boss gives me new jobs to do yet I’m not a worker
My wife Waits in the bedroom yet I’m not a husband
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy

[Chorus]
Some people believe in their senses
some people believe in their thoughts
some people believe in their feelings
but I am neither of these

[Verse]
My father still gives lectures though I am not a son
My kids want me to play with them though I am not their dad
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy

[Chorus]
Some people believe in their senses
some people believe in their thoughts
some people believe in their feelings
but I am neither of these

[Bridge]
I feel like I am existential, but I am real
I wonder if I am real, but I am imaginary
I know I feel intelligent but I am average
And I know I am neither of these

[Chorus]
Some people believe in their senses
some people believe in their thoughts
some people believe in their feelings
but I am neither of these

[Outro]
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy
I am a being, and this knowledge gives me joy
