Today, I chat with Drew Thurlow, a strategist focused on how AI might be democratizing the music industry, rather than destroying it. We talk about how AI is changing everything from the creative process to copyright law, whether or not we should be worried about AI-generated music like the Velvet Sundown, and how AI is being used to surface the most popular songs made by whales in the sea. We also talk about this former Sony, Warner, and Pandora exec's upcoming new book "Machine Music: How AI Is Transforming Music's Next Act,'" set for release in 2026. Drew will definitely have you thinking new thoughts today! The News!

Rosh Hashanah begins at Sundown on September 22 this year. Traditionally the Feast is called the Jewish New Year, though in the BIble the feast is Yom Teruah, the Day of the Blowing of the Shofar, (the feast of Trumpets.)
On this episode of The Sonic Collective, we dive into one of the most iconic albums in Canadian music history — Gordon Lightfoot's Sundown (1974). Known for its title track, which became Lightfoot's only U.S. #1 single, Sundown is an album that perfectly balances folk roots with a smooth country-rock polish. At the height of the 1970s singer-songwriter era, Lightfoot delivered deeply personal songs about love, jealousy, and restlessness, cementing his place as one of the greatest storytellers in music. As always on The Sonic Collective, we step back in time to experience this album as it was meant to be heard, while also asking an important question: does Sundown still hold up today? We'll share our insights on the history, cultural impact, and sound of the album, while reflecting on how these songs resonate with modern listeners. From the radio-dominating hit “Sundown” to the hauntingly beautiful “Carefree Highway,” this record gives us plenty to discuss. If you're new to our show, The Sonic Collective is a podcast where music lovers revisit classic albums to see if they stand the test of time — and if they're worth adding to your playlist today. Whether you're a lifelong Lightfoot fan or just discovering his music, join us as we explore what makes Sundown such a compelling piece of music history.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The requirement to recite 100 Berachot each day refers to the period between sundown and sundown the following day. Hence, the Berachot recited in the evening count toward the next day's total with respect to this obligation. This gives rise to a number of interesting questions in situations where it is unclear how to classify a certain time-period. One such question involves Friday evenings in the summer, when many people recite Arbit and accept Shabbat early, before sundown (after the point of "Pelag Ha'minha"). Do those Berachot recited at Arbit – and the Berachot recited at the meal before sundown – count toward Friday's total of Berachot, since the sun has yet to set? Or, since one has accepted Shabbat, do these Berachot count toward the next day's number? Hacham Ovadia Yosef answered this question based on a ruling of the Taz (Rav David Segal, Poland, 1586-1667) regarding one who prayed Arbit early, before sundown, on the night of Shemini Aseret. In the case of Shemini Aseret, the day before this Yom Tob is Hoshana Rabba, the final day of Sukkot. Therefore, when one accepts Yom Tob early, before sundown, he faces the question of whether the time that remains until sundown is considered Sukkot or Shemini Aseret. In Israel, where people do not eat in the Sukka on Shemini Aseret, this question determines whether the individual must eat in the Sukka, because the sun has yet to set on the final day of Sukkot, or if he may eat inside his home, since he has already accepted Shemini Aseret, such that Sukkot has already ended. The Taz ruled that once the person recited Arbit, he has ushered in the new Halachic day, and so in this case, the individual does not need to eat in the Sukka. Hacham Ovadia accepts this ruling, and thus concludes that by the same token, one who accepts Shabbat early has transitioned to the next day, Shabbat, and all the Berachot he recites count toward Shabbat's total of Berachot, even though the sun is still out. This principle applies in the converse in the case of a Se'uda Shelishit meal that is eaten late in the afternoon on Shabbat, and continues after dark. Since the person has in effect extended Shabbat past sunset, the Berachot of Birkat Ha'mazon that he recites after dark still count toward Shabbat's total, as this period is still considered Shabbat. (However, if one recites Arbit during Se'uda Shelishit, then he has begun the new day, and thus the Berachot he recites subsequently during Birkat Ha'mazon will count toward Sunday's total.) This becomes especially important when we consider the difficulty entailed in reaching the total of 100 Berachot on Shabbat, when the Amida consists of only seven blessings (as opposed to the weekday Amida, which consists of 19 Berachot). Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Jerusalem, 1910-1995) disagreed. He maintained that the obligation of 100 daily Berachot refers to the period from sunset to sunset, even if one accepts Shabbat before sunset or extends Shabbat past sunset. In his view, all the Berachot recited before sunset count toward the previous day's total, whereas the Berachot recited after sunset count toward the new day's total. (This poses a challenge for those who accept Shabbat early, as the Berachot of Arbit are not counted toward the required 100 Berachot of Shabbat.) In any event, we follow Hacham Ovadia's opinion, that if one accepts Shabbat early or extends Shabbat past sundown, the Berachot count toward Shabbat's total. Does this apply also on weekdays? If a person recites Arbit before sundown on a weekday during the summer, do the Berachot recited at Arbit, and Berachot recited subsequently, before sunset, count toward that day's number of Berachot, or the next day's total? This question seems to hinge on a debate among the Rishonim concerning the case of a woman who performed the Hefsek Tahara inspection (which establishes the cessation of bleeding, so she can begin the "seven clean days") after reciting Arbit. This inspection must be performed during the day, and the question thus becomes whether it is valid if was done before sundown but after the woman recited Arbit. The Terumat Ha'deshen (Rav Yisrael Isserlein, 1390-1460) maintained that once a person recites Arbit, even before sundown, he has begun Halachic nighttime, and thus the woman in this case has already begun the night, when it is too late to perform the Hefsek Tahara. By contrast, the Maharil (Rav Yaakob Moelin, Germany, 1365-1427) ruled that the recitation of Arbit does not affect the status of the time that remains until sunset, and it is still considered daytime. Therefore, the woman may still perform a Hefsek Tahara even after reciting Arbit, as long as the sun has not set. Hacham Ovadia Yosef, in his Taharat Ha'bayit, follows the Maharil's position, that a woman may perform a Hefsek Tahara after she recited Arbit if the sun has not set. We would thus seemingly assume that with regard to the obligation of 100 daily Berachot, too, reciting Arbit before sundown on a weekday does not mark the onset of nighttime, and thus the Berachot recited count toward that day's number of Berachot. A similar question arises in the case of a person who, for whatever reason, did not put on Tefillin all day, and recited Arbit before sundown. The Shulhan Aruch – seemingly following the opinion of the Terumat Ha'deshen – rules that this individual can no longer put on Tefillin, because by reciting Arbit he has begun the nighttime, when Tefillin are not worn. Hacham Ovadia, however, writes that the person can still put on Tefillin, since the sun had not set. Returning to the issue of the 100 daily Berachot, it would seem that according to the Shulhan Aruch, the Berachot recited during Arbit before sundown count toward the next day's total, whereas according to Hacham Ovadia, they count toward the previous day's total. Given the different opinions, this issue remains unresolved, and we cannot ascertain the status of Berachot recited after a person recited Arbit before sundown. Summary: If a person begins Shabbat early, before sundown, the Berachot he recites during Arbit and after Arbit count toward his number of blessings recited on Shabbat with respect to the obligation of 100 daily blessings, even though the sun has not yet. Likewise, if one extends Se'uda Shelishit past sundown, the Berachot of Birkat Ha'mazon count towards Shabbat's total, since he has yet to end Shabbat. On weekdays, however, if one recites Arbit before sundown, it is unclear whether those Berachot – and the Berachot recited after Arbit, before sundown – count toward the previous day's total, or the next day's total.

Satanism, Black Magic, and Devil Worshipping are terms that have been around since the Middle Ages. In the majority of cases today, people who follow this do so somewhat out of boredom, it drawing something in their angry, perhaps somewhat confused selves that they feel may be that edge that they need to express their inner feelings. And in most cases, it will go no further than a dabble with the ideology or symbolism, before they find it's not really for them, they see the light, and leave it behind. In some cases, they will maintain a lifelong commitment to Satan, but never going further than pronouncing that they follow his teachings.But in some extreme cases, such as in Germany, in 2001 - the tale I have brought this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast – the odd one or two go that bit further, and prove just how committed to Satan they really are…The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving descriptions of injury detail, and instances of racist speech, that some listeners may find disturbing or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening in.

We're back after a little summer pause — no guest this month, just Nate, Ben, and Neil catching up on all things music, gear, and a band that doesn't actually exist.We dig into the rise of AI-generated artists (looking at you, Velvet Sundown), what it means for real musicians, and whether listeners even care how the music was made. Plus: a heated conversation about live backing tracks, summer gigs, mastering workflows, new speakers (hello, Barefoot Footprint 03s), and yes… Nate bought a tape machine.Also: Florence steaks, Fort Wayne slides, Sweetwater shoutouts, and some low-key gig consulting.
This episode explores AI-generated music and cybersecurity through the story of The Velvet Sundown, a completely synthetic band that fooled millions on Spotify. Drex examines how AI-generated music, voices, and images can deceive audiences, YouTube's new monetization policies for AI content, and the growing challenge of distinguishing authentic from synthetic media.

More information about Olivas and her fiction can be found at olivasthewriter.wtfSundown in San Ojuela is out now! About the book:When the death of her aunt brings Liz Remolina back to San Ojuela, the prospect fills her with dread. The isolated desert town was the site of a harrowing childhood accident that left her clairvoyant, the companion of wraiths and ghosts. Yet it may also hold the secret to making peace with a dark family history and a complicated personal and cultural identity.Setting out on the train with her younger sister Mary in tow, she soon finds herself hemmed in by a desolate landscape where monsters and ancient gods stalk the night. She's relieved at first to find that her childhood best friend Julian still lives in San Ojuela, but soon realizes that he too is changed. Haunted.Yet she'll have no other choice than to seek out his help as the darkness closes in.#horror #horrorauthor #gothic #authorsofinstagram #horrorbooks #writerlife #SundownInSanOjuela #MMOlivas #gothichorror #southwestgothic #horror #horrornovel #horrornovels #horrorbooks #LFPBooks #queerbooks #transauthor #2024debut #2024debuts #latinehorror

You may have seen the AI band The Velvet Sundown pop up in the news recently and thought "well, that's weird". Long-time fans of the pod probably also thought "when are they going to do an episode on that?" Well, here it is! The Velvet Sundown - What Actually Happened? If you've been following us for a while you'll know that every 18 months or so we seem to return to broader discussions about where music and technology intersect. It began with an episode on Threatin (if you remember who Threatin is, well done) and how one man's quest for fame led to him faking a massive fanbase. A quest that ended with him playing to empty rooms across the UK, and saw him trying to retcon it into some kind of art hoax. Later, we discussed what a possible future using AI music might look like in March 2019, looking at the early attempts to create artificial intelligence music and how the data given to streaming platforms could very well be used to create music. An episode that is now quite prescient in retrospect. Mark was actually quite optimistic that a Velvet Sundown-esque AI band scenario would not come to pass. How naïve... And then in October 2023 we took a two episode deep dive into Spotify playlist manipulation, and how it began way back in the early days of radio with payola. Spotify algorithm manipulation plays a huge role in how the person/entity behind The Velvet Sundown was able to gain so much traction so quickly - reaching 1.1 million plays and potentially earning £35,000+ annually. AI Music - The Bigger Picture This week's episode continues this tradition. We cover some old ground in places (the history of AI music and playlist manipulation), but for the vast majority of the episode we break new ground. We look at the hard numbers around what this synthetic music "artist" stands to make, examine other AI-generated bands like Anna Indiana, The Devil Inside, and Aventhis, ponder both the inventive and interesting uses of artificial intelligence in music as well as the more troubling ones, and look at some possible futures in the wake of all this AI band controversy.

Isabel and Amanda talk about two very different kinds of AI grift. In one, a man pretends to be real social media for the (probably) AI band "The Velvet Sundown." In another, Soham Parekh simply gets employed by every single AI startup at once.

A new band called Velvet Sundown appeared on Spotify with two albums and hundreds of thousands of listeners, but has no evidence of real members or a history online. Music sites note that the music sounds like it could be generated by AI tools, while the band insists it is real. NLW explores the big question: does it matter if it IS AI?
