I’m still debating whether writing here in my lil’ blog or writing articles for Medium is more satisfying, or can get before more eyes.

I wrote recently over there about an amazing tool I hadn’t ever heard of: Suno. (Here’s my Suno profile page of songs.)

It can do amazing music creations, based on whatever you tell it in a prompt. You can pick a genre (not an artist to mimic, it suffers copyright heartburn), tempo, instruments, even give it lyrics or let it make up it’s own, or a combo.

I have had, and told many people about my long-time dream of a Broadway musical idea. So with a simple prompt, it easily gave me a realization of just what it could sound like.

More than one, actually – it’ll give you plenty of versions, most just keep getting better.

You name the musical type, give it some lyrics or not, and it’ll give you a wonderful rendition – an amalgam no doubt of all the music it’s been trained on. Not quite like any one piece, but evocative and wonderful.
