Lyrics are my own, and demo by Tunee AI. A pleasant surprise for me. The scanning of the lines was exactly as I sang it when writing the lyrics -it's the way I work! I love the song, obviously biased, but maybe you will too, here's hoping.

A rock duet from Tunee, I have given this AI just a short synopsis of the lyric for each of the sections in these experimental exercises with Tunee. At first I was happy with the generated lyric, meant I could do more with the musical side, etc. But if I do find that I decide to work with this as an alternative source of demos for my songs I will definitely do more work for myself on the lyrics. T...

I make no apologies! My kind of music, music of my early teens which has stayed a favourite genre all my life. Guitars, bass an drums, real music. Oh yes, crafted by Tunee AI to my specifications.

This is the first attempt to create a song in Tunee. I deliberately let the AI "Agent" lead me on this to explore how the process worked. I did outline the lyrical content, but did not offer any specific lyrics. I was absolutely knocked out by the lyrics the AI Agent came up with compared to the plain text story, I had outlined. I was offered three genres/styles based on the outline and the meagre...

A little bit of an experiment for me with a different way of using AI. You chat with the AI "agent" to create and then edit/modify your requirements. Rather than having to use an external agent, rather than creating a prompt and trying it out. Maybe my explanation does not do the process justice but it feels much more natural. Discussing the workflow and the direction of an arrangement, etc; just...

The reason for recreating this song was to produce a version using v5. The original song was based on version sung by myself and backed with a solo ukulele; so not only my lyrics but the main melodies for all sections of the song were my original creation. Suno provided the high quality backing, etc. The Circle80 Initiative is John Dyhouse & Suno.

I wrote this poem, just after Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans. It has since been used as the basis for a track uploaded to Soundcloud. In view of Hurricane Melissa's passage over Jamaica, I have posted here an alternative track of the same poem with darker passages to reflect it's increased potency. The news has mentioned winds of 205mph. Hope you like this version?

Following on from the last upload, I have remastered this track using Suno v5. One thing I missed noting against the previous version was the Suno persona used was Orion Vox

As Armistice Day (2025) comes around, I found my self drawn to this song I wrote earlier to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day. I had been a little uneasy with the original version, I had been finding that Suno v4.5 still left some tracks with minor sound problems, which at the time had been acceptable. But v5 has been so much better that I decided to remaster it, if only to see if v5 was as...

Well at last back to a new song with a bang! Very excited about the lyrics and the arrangement of this song. I think I had a premonition and actually learned to play a version of this song to work out a chord progression, something a little out of the ordinary - a little jazzy - but not so's you would notice. I also spent some time crafting the prompts (meta-tags) I have used with the lyrics to ar...

Still pottering away at the instrumental covers. I could go on until the cows come home (for my non-UK friends, a phrase we use in the uk to signify a long time / never. I'll say no more

The original is from a short period when I borrowed my son's computer. He had some software called Acid Forge, which I called a sequencer. I used supplied samples of "real instruments" and "placed" notes or short clips on a musical stave. A very short dalliance which resulted in a dozen or so pieces in various genres - most of which I did not understand. However to my untutored ears they sounded O...

My apologies to my friends, but this is another instrumental cover of one of my early songs. Lyrics (of the original song) and main musical theme are my own work. This is purely for me - I love instrumental guitar music and growing up and getting my first guitars in the early sixties has left their mark on me. But I hope you may like it as much as I do.

Sounds Of Uncertainty (Instrumental Cover) by John Dyhouse

Decided to do a few more instrumental covers of some of my songs. As I have mentioned previously, my guiding light when growing up, included groups like The Shadows, The Ventures, etc. This is just for me, although I hope that you will like some of them. The songs covered in this way have to be songs I uploaded to Suno so that the main melodies were those I used for the original songs.

A 1960's style rock track, featuring a male vocal (Daniel True) singing the original lyrics of this song (lyrics by J Dyhouse). A remix featuring a female vocallist is already uploaded on Soundcloud

A cover of the next track, I started working with a male persona but did not feel it was working as I wanted. I changed the lyric to reflect the fact that this version/cover was a female vocalist and created a new prompt. RESULT! I still felt that as it was written for a guy singing, I should make a new start and try agaiin, NIL DESPERANDUM! The result will be uploaded immediately after this track...

My latest song, with a female vocal. I have left it too long but this could only be one of the earliest personas that I created on Suno. A beautiful Pop Ballad of anthemic proportions - if I do say so myself, LOL. Hope you like it. The backing may be a little "sparse" for some ears...

A laid back country song from Circle80, featuring Brett Steele (Suno persona specialising in this genre). A song I worked on for some time, in the process moving more versions and iterations to the trash can than |I have for a long time. But leaving it for a while and then taking advice from an AI source, on idioms - yep - and shock, horror, I always use a rhyming dictionary and a thesaurus too. A...

This was an experiment for me. I wrote a simple and repetitive lyric, with the idea of a modern "Dance" genre. But when I prompted for the first iteration, I suggested modern reggae as the genre??? the vocal was in a heavy patois accent - I have no issue with that for the genre, but did not really fit the lyric. So I tried a different prompts and Found that I had far better results, however there...

Still on the trail of my favourite music, !960's Rock. I pushed the "Weirdness" up a little, only a little and it came back with this - And I love it. R&R, Rockabilly, ROCK or Alternative Rock, I will take any suggestions but it won't change my mind. Took the tempo up a touch as well, but all to the good. Ther persona (with prompt) is "Daniel True" but that little touch of weirdness has come good.

I can't help but love this style from Suno. I love the Rickenbaker guitar sound. This song was one I wrote very quickly today. No intention of doing so, but I was sitting, waiting for my wife who had queued up for a coffee and cake; we had gone shopping and its a little treat. I started tapping the table, and the words just came out. Very simplistic but I thought -sixties. An couldn't wait to get...

The second in a series of tracks based on the poetry of myself (John Dyhouse) set to music with a style based on opera. Notes on the CIRCLE80 Initiative may be found in the description of "A Sheet Of Crumpled Paper". The Suno "persona" used on this track is the duo "Danny & Denise"

This track is an experiment with mixing light opera and pop. For me it also represents a difference in the way I present the track. For historical purposes, I have always used my name as the artist. Simply because it was practical for purposes of filing the tracks on my PC. I have never hidden that for the last 12 months I have been posting AI assisted music. In all cases (except for a few cases w...

written as an answer to the recent uploaded song, "Life's A Puzzle", I don't claim to be a psychiatrist (is that the right word?) but after writing that song, I felt things were left up in the air and I found a few positive quotes (sorry unattributed) and strangled them and left them out to dry. I quite like the song, but feel I might rework it . But I will leave it for now and see if it ages well...
