John Dyhouse

this what I think will be the first of two different versions of this song. Suno was very generous and while continuing eperiments with the new "persona" feature, I liked two of the versions so much I intend to post both, Don't worry you would never reognise them as the same song unless you listen to the lyrics. The song was written in 1976 - I had started to include a date with songs at this stag...

Playing around with Suno again. This time another "Persona", I have called it Orion Vox. A male voice,subtly different to my own, sounding younger and a better singer, I am guessing that 3 or 4 personas should make a great stable of singers (together with my own Suno voice of course. I think a bass, blues singer will be the next choice to complement my own abilities, watch this space... The song i...

This is a track I very nearly threw out. I used the new persona feature from Suno for the first time and tried to generate a similar track to the one I chose for the "Persona". Ths original track, had a prompt containing the tag "minimalistic" - this time it was a little too much, almost boring. But I extended the new track (this song) and was knocked out by the ending. This track is the result af...

Song written by John Dyhouse (early 1960's) and bought up to date using SUNO AI v3,5. The AI was prompted by using an audio clip of me singing an acapella version of the song, this enables the AI to model my voice and use the original melodies (verse/chorus/ bridge, etc. This is a song which I found difficult to match with any of the genres/styles which I initially tried to use. Some songs do seem...

This another song written in the 1960's which I have always liked but for some reason I have not yet managed to properly capture it in SUNO. This is the best I have managed - so far! The problem is, I think, that the AI retains an image of the first thing which is generated, and does not seem to be able to escape that image, yes you can change certain aspects such as the genre but incorrect lyrics...

I finally generated a new track today - so it has my own voice, but annoyingly not the original melodies. Although to be fair the AI got them fairly close. The original was written (by myself in the late sixties. Something I have realised in my experiments with Suno, something I should have realised is that not all lyrics are equal when faced with different genres. The time signature, the beat, th...

THis was one of 14 different versions of this song created from an original song written by myself. I was using it to experiment with genres/styles, whilst I was getting to know Suno AI. I do not recognise the genre, but the prompt requested a rock ballad with an energetic synth lead. This was different and I liked the vocal, even tho it was not what I expected. The other versions are based on aco...

Another experiment with Suno; A poem set to music or rather a poem with added music, or is that the same thing - anyway the poem came first. Are You Afraid of the dark? Once upon a midnight sombre, Through which came tapping, tapping, tapping. In there stepped a haunting downbeat, Still is rapping, still is rapping. I felt compelled to scour the setting I awoke with such a start. Ah, distinctly I...

I had difficulty choosing which version of this song I should post here. I have five versions at least which I would have been happy to share, in the end I went for this one with a female vocalist ( which is rare for me as I like to be able to sing the songs I am generating on Suno. But I do like this approach, I hope that you will too. Lyrics - Empty Spaces [intro] (oooooh oooooh oh oh oooohhhh)...

This is one of a number of versions I generated of this track, with different prompts/styles. Simply experimenting with Suno, when I first started looking into the field of AI Assisted song writing. I am uploading this version for the simple reason that it was presented to me as a duet. Which I had never considered at all. But I do like it, I think it makes a wonderful song from what was a very si...

A little bit jazzy, a little bit bluesy. Another early Suno assisted tune, playing with the genres/styles. I like the jazzy nature of this one but not sure much of the blues in the mix. I did describe a situation/relation ship in the prompt but apart from a little editing of the lyric, mostly out of the ai box. However, I do like it, so here is a version for your perusal, hope you like it.

OK then, enough of the experiments with genres and prompts, here is anthemic power ballad. Well to tell the truth, all my output from Suno since July has been experimental. And most of it too good to waste. My only difficulty is knowing what other people will like. I was listening to some early stuff (this was from July 17th) and had to get this on the queue to be posted. I absolutely love this on...

Really enjoy utilising the wide range of genres available on Suno, and this big band sound is no exception. I remember walking home from school, as a young teenager and singing "I'm sorry" by Brenda Lee. In the lyric there was the phrase "I was just a fool". When I got home, I borrowed this phrase and wrote this song. Maybe not in the same league, but not bad for someone of that age - at that time...

"And now for Something completely different", thanks Monty. In my explorations and experiments with Suno AI, I wondered if I could use a little of my poetry, Prompting for speech/spoken word did not seem to work so I decided to add a little music. There were several verses to this poem, I chose the most likely candidate, and selected it as a chorus/bridge. Just to add a change for interest, And pr...

Just in case anybody is thinking I have forsaken recording my songs with a simple ukulele, because of the constant stream of AI assisted music over the past several weeks. I have uploaded this Beautiful Song by a wonderful singer/songwriter, Ruth Nina Welsh. I have been covering some of my favourites from Ruth and you can find more on the playlist/abum on which this track is now the 13th track (I...

Mmm, I thought to myself,"I haven't written anythiing for days". So here is a song at slightly reduced tempo from the last upload. It was a difficult one and I rewrote the lyrics completely three times with at least two more heavy edits - or maybe even three or four. I tested the lyrics in Suno - Wrong! Still not sure it's just right and I had wanted to sample my voice for this .... BUT I loved th...

Revieewing an early trial with Suno. Still exploring genres and thought this was worth airing. just to raise the temp a little. A song generated from a suggested prompt, so apart from a few edits not my own lyrics this time. I did do a little post processing, before uploading here.

Now, this is quite an old song (early 60's). One of the first of my own songs I put thru the Suno process. But never really found a version which moved me. Maybe the genres/styles I tried simply did not gell with the lyrics. I did persevere with some others where I found this same issue, I rewote lyrics to try and get better better results - some worked, some not! But these lyrics were so simple a...

Another experiment with Suno. What do I mean by that? I tend to use an "AI generated" lyric to my instructions for what I considered a "throwaway song". I wanted a quick result to generate anything up to 12-15 different songs (genres, etc) just to compare what they could sound like. Too often I actually found at least one version that I liked. So the lyric (here) is not one I would now accept. But...

I wrote this song on a whim, the postman had just delivered our mail; I was thinking about my next song and for no reason it seemed to just write itself. Sometimes this kind of experience provides the best of songs - and I do love this one. I was experimenting with the Americana genre in Suno, which is something I love, I bought Rod Stewarts album of songs from the American Songbook, a great CD. O...

Basically, an experiment with Suno AI, using a lyric I had re-written from a draft off another AI engine. I had also tried a new feature where you can negatively prompt for something In this case I negated a female vocal. Purely because I wanted to use my own voice, no slight intended to the ladies. As it turned out, the AI gave me a great sounding duet, or at least alternating voices. This was fr...

An old song, writen by myself in the last century! Updated with Suno AI using my lyrics, the original melody and my own voice. Suno has added backing to fully produce a track which has then been post processed in Audacity.

I now have three levels of song writing which I use. The first and my preferred way, is to write the lyrics myself and writing the melodies to support them after deciding on a chord sequence. For AI generated songs - if I am investigating some specific meta tag - I do allow the AI to generate the lyrics to my specifications (usually a title and a short synopsis of the content). A third way, if I a...

Another old song. I wrote this one in the early 1960's (sorry about the dating but I never used to date the pages in my first lyric notebook, I can only go by the page number, this one was #27. Probably 1961-2. Again, I used a sample of me singing (acapella) to prompt The AI with my own voice but more importantly with the melodies to go with the lyrics. It works folks.... yes it can develop the me...

I love this song, written by myself in the early seventies (as a best guess). Unfortunately I was very lackadasical with details in my lyric notebooks. Although I have already posted this song previously on Soundcloud, the first time was four years ago and , I am posting it again with a backing by SUNO. I sang a verse and the chorus as a sample for Suno and prompted with the full lyrics (plus the...
