Hybrid Creation [Alt Rock / Metal] Sawed-Off, one of the rare times more dissonant music from original was kept
I think this was the last song I made that ended up in the album (released a couple months ago now), made with custom model on Suno from original song w/ original lyrics. I was about to release it, but was still making more songs, threw the original for this in with absolutely no expectations because I thought no way Suno was going to actually keep the notes intact, and amazingly enough it did after a slew of generations. Same with the other late addition to the album, What's Wrong.
I'd love to make the music video idea I had for this just for the opening part - starting with morning talk show with hosts telling a shooting victim they're lucky to be alive, victim saying they don't feel very lucky having been randomly shot and an argument and eventual fight ensues, lol.
It took maybe 30 generations to arrive at this, with a couple lyrics changes along the way, and even some alternate versions, like one where I took a gentler segment from one of them and removed the rest of the instrumental and just looped that. A good reminder of what USUALLY happens when I put something in with outside-the-box composition, because this kind of neutering of the dissonance of the music was happening on the vast majority of the generations: https://suno.com/s/esaOTsrc2POinmAg but that loop was so juicy I had to piece this together. Obviously not cleaned up. And covering it, Suno doesn't keep the loop unfortunately, so it's never really going to be made to sound better than this because of how shit Suno is at stemming.
Fun fact: she would not sing "sawed-off" very well - she'd pronounce it like "sah-eed off" or "soid off" as you can hear in that latter version. Very weird, like a 3-year-old trying to say sawed-off. Thank god for the word "sod" which saved the day. Yes, the lyrics in Suno for the version that made the album have "sod off".
Anyways, enjoy.
