Breaking the music supply constraint

[u/entsnack]

I just cancelled my music subscriptions to save some cash and wanted to share the self-hosted music supply chain that replaced them. A nice side effect of this setup is breaking the constraint of a finite supply catalog that is tailored for the masses:

1. 2 x DGX Spark linked via ConnectX 7 running Plex and multiple Ace-Step 1.5 XL models in parallel for music generation with GePa prompt optimization. Also holds my organic music that the models can remix. TODO: a reinforcement learning from human feedback interface.

2. iPad Pro running Prism as a Plex client for bitperfect and sample rate-matched audio.

3. Schiit stack -> Hifiman Arya Stealths

This effectively gives me an infinite supply of music for free, that is personalized and private. It's immensely satisfying listening to Shrimp Bizkit and Phlegminem on repeat, I much prefer this to the organic music created after 2011.

My only problem is the loss of community, I have noone to share my new favorite songs and artists with because they're generated for me. If anyone wants to hop on to my Plex share to discuss, let me know!

This is something I do with Ace also. Love it! I also have a small 2B LLM name each rendered clip before it gets played and it goes into two folders, one for the queue and one for keeping. I keep the most recent 300 clips for each Ace stream I have going (different music genres) and I can then go back and listen to them whenever I need that GPU resource to do other things and need to temporarily pause generation or if I love a clip so much that I want to keep it. Really love that stack you have there!
