Fit For An Autopsy<\/a><\/strong>, After The Burial<\/a><\/strong>, The Devil Wears Prada<\/a><\/strong>, and a boatload more artists were flooded with AI-generated metalcore “music” late in August. The songs have since been removed, but thanks to the lack of checks and balances between distributors and streaming services, it happened again!<\/p>\n Bands like Void Of Vision<\/a><\/strong>, Earth Crisis<\/a><\/strong>, Downswing<\/strong>, Windwaker<\/strong>, and more have been hit with AI-generated music on their profiles. According to The PRP<\/a><\/em>, the “music” was attributed to a person named papi ilham<\/strong> affiliated with Planet Musik Indonesia.<\/p>\n “An AI generated song was released on our Spotify and possibly other streaming services today,” wrote Downswing<\/strong>. “This release was uploaded without our consent and we are working on having it removed ASAP.”<\/p>\n So why does this matter? Because fraudsters like papi ilham<\/strong> and Planet Musik Indonesia are making money off bigger names. The fake AI song gets uploaded to a ton of profiles, it gets however many streams it gets before it’s removed by the request of the artist (or their management), they make a few bucks, rinse and repeat.<\/p>\n In a landscape where making money as an artist is damn near impossible, this shit is inexcusable from each and every streaming service.<\/p>\n
