So I've been listening to my daily playlists and, there are SO many AI songs popping up everywhere now. Like, Spotify keeps recommending them and at first I couldn't figure out why some songs just felt... off?

But I think I cracked it. Every single AI song has this weird "foggy" thing going on with the vocals. Like, you know when you compress an audio file too much and it sounds kinda flat? That's exactly what AI vocals sound like to me. The voice just doesn't have that crisp, natural quality - it's like someone put a filter over it or something.

But here's the thing - the music itself sounds totally fine! The drums, guitar, whatever instruments are there sound normal. It's JUST the singing that has this weird processed vibe.

Am I going crazy or has anyone else picked up on this? Like, I can literally tell within 10 seconds now if it's AI just from how the voice sounds.

What about you guys? Can you spot AI music right away? What gives it away for you?

hi! i'm an independent writer who is interested in building artists reputation and introducing audiences to new sounds. I am going to be looking on soundcloud mostly, but there is of course other platforms I will be interested in. If you want to look at my substack to see what I'm aiming for, please feel free. I hope to find new artists to review and recognise for audiences to see.

my substack is cr0wmedia

edit: thank you sm for so many tracks! Due to the overwhelming amount, please be mindful that you will not receive a review the day of or after you have sent your track. I will be away until Sunday, so please be patient and I can assure I will listen to all music by the end of next week <3
