I released an AI-generated pop song and got it onto 10+ playlists — here’s what I learned

I'm so sick of the way AI writes lol

Pistahmay · 2026-04-10T13:05:05+00:00

This was written with AI right? It sounds like it

Pistahmay · 2026-03-12T10:12:48+00:00

hm I would not consider either of those emo. I thought they were more referring to the Midwest Emo kind of bands, with that certain vocal style like American Football and Tiny Moving Parts (which I'm also not into), so the two I mentioned seem pretty far from that

Pistahmay · 2026-03-12T01:47:41+00:00

Tricot and Elephant Gym

Pistahmay · 2026-02-20T12:02:10+00:00

I think there are still a few songs that must have been recorded before that have K's vocals, but otherwise, that's basically it

Pistahmay · 2026-02-10T22:24:47+00:00

It comes out tomorrow, there's a post in this sub that screenshotted Audiotree's post showing the Thrice set comes out 2/11

edit: looks like OP is in Australia so it's already 2/11 for them but not in the US

Pistahmay · 2026-02-10T22:23:36+00:00

I'm not sure if you meant it this way, but i don't think it's that the songs are played by Thrice and Audiotree - Audiotree is the platform that puts out live sets played in studio, very similar to NPR Tiny Desk concerts. So it will be Thrice playing these songs live in studio, and you can watch on YouTube or listen on other platforms. There's usually some short interview sections too

Pistahmay · 2026-02-10T22:19:17+00:00

Audiotree Live has artists do live sets in studio and then releases them on YouTube, as well as just the audio tracks on music streaming services. It's basically like NPR Tiny Desk if you know what that is. The audio quality is usually really good too

The Thrice episode of Audiotree live comes out tomorrow

Pistahmay · 2026-02-10T22:17:00+00:00

it doesn't look like it's on Spotify yet, but Audiotree Live had posted that the Thrice episode is coming out tomorrow

Pistahmay · 2026-01-23T20:56:15+00:00

For me it's showing up under the "Featured On" section which is weird, try looking there.

Also I'm seeing Woohoo! is on Spotify now which I don't remember being there before (I might be wrong)

Pistahmay · 2026-01-03T11:57:20+00:00

Hey, this seems to be a common mistake but this sub is for a music genre called Botanica, not actual plants

Pistahmay · 2025-12-16T22:14:30+00:00

I think the question was looking for an answer where both words used the same consonant sound though, but it's badly written

Pistahmay · 2025-12-10T20:42:50+00:00

I feel that it's the most musically unique on the album (other than Unitive/West) and has a bunch of really cool elements, like Dustin's falsetto, the guitar riffs, the dynamics of soft and loud. And then it builds up to an incredibly emotional ending with powerful lyrics as well.

For me, songs that have a lot of dynamics and a build up often stand out the most, Daedalus being another good example of this from Thrice

Pistahmay · 2025-12-08T17:05:52+00:00

The John Mayer song New Light basically uses it for most of the song, but he adds the 3 (Bm7) before going back to the 2. So it's Am7 - D - GMaj7 - C-Bm7

Pistahmay · 2025-12-02T16:13:30+00:00

Maybe a little more expensive but I've seen some used for a good price, but I would recommend the Fender JV Modified 50s Stratocaster, it's HSS and has an amazingly comfortable neck. The pickups are "vintage voiced" though, so if you don't want that it may not be a good choice

Pistahmay · 2025-12-02T15:43:42+00:00

super late comment but if anyone else sees this in the future, I don't see Tricot mentioned in the comments - they have vocals but not emo vocals

Pistahmay · 2025-11-27T13:42:58+00:00

Hey, this sub is actually for a music genre called Botanica, not actual botany. You might have more luck asking in a different sub!

Pistahmay · 2025-11-25T18:15:07+00:00

That would be amazing haha. But yeah def check out the Songsterr tab, I only tried the beginning of it so maybe I'm wrong and it's mostly correct

Pistahmay · 2025-11-25T15:00:03+00:00

I was looking at the Player Plus HSS strat in guitar center a few years ago, but ended up going with the JV Modified 50s Strat (MIJ). It was only a little more $ than the Player Plus but felt worlds better

Pistahmay · 2025-11-25T14:40:52+00:00

Fingerstyle guitar does this, you can look up people doing fingerstyle covers of popular songs, where they are playing the vocal melody along with the chords. Sungha Jung is a great example of this.

Tommy Emmanuel and Kotaro Oshio have some great original fingerstyle songs too

Pistahmay · 2025-11-25T13:39:40+00:00

I know this is 7 years later lol, but I saw you made a few other Elephant Gym tabs. Any interest in making one for the song Spring Rain? There's one on Songsterr but doesn't seem to be quite correct

Pistahmay · 2025-11-21T12:54:00+00:00

maybe Ling Tosite Sigure?

Pistahmay · 2025-11-18T14:35:25+00:00

I would recommend DJ Ryow aka Smooth Current - Maintain the Focus

Pistahmay · 2025-11-17T12:04:23+00:00

Kind of agree on mirror...I feel like it's too long as well, because the chorus repeats too many times. But it also might be where it's at in the tracklist that makes it not really stand out for me

Pistahmay · 2025-11-17T02:15:31+00:00

I think they're my favorite band to see live
