Listen "The Rise of AI in Music: Meet The Velvet Sundown (EP85)"
Episode Synopsis
IN THIS EPISODE
What connects a 1969 cartoon band, a Grammy-winning lip-sync scandal, a Disney star's evolution, and Spotify's latest million-streaming mystery? Join Team Derringer (Paul, Laura, and Alton) as they unravel the fascinating thread linking The Archies' bubblegum pop deception, Milli Vanilli's manufactured vocals, Sabrina Carpenter's carefully crafted career transformation, and The Velvet Sundown—the AI-generated "band" that fooled over a million listeners and sparked a media hoax within a hoax.
YOUR VOICE MATTERS!
After listening, share your thoughts with us! Do you think AI music should be labeled? Can algorithms create art with soul? How do we protect human artists while embracing innovation? Send us your clean, thoughtful feedback—your comments could be featured in our next episode!
