Thomas Bangalter, one of the members of Daft Punk, was interviewed recently for CHANEL Connects. During the interview, he made the statement that AI doesn't work in the creative process. 🚫🤖 Most artists, musicians, and creative professionals agree. 🎬 Video by @matcreates on Instagram

Too many people trying to rewrite history by saying Toonami was the one that made Cowboy Bebop popular... No! It was Adult Swim. Adult Swim was the first to premiere Cowboy Bebop in English on TV in the United States and helped it gain mass appeal. youtu.be/DnzcJypc2GU?... Do your research. 🤦‍♂️

Brandon from Digging The Greats did a fantastic video where he absolutely destroys any delusion that people may have to use Ai to make music. This video is a love letter to those who both cherish and make music with a passion, and the creative pursuit of all artists. youtu.be/CVXewkmZ3hc?...

He is going to be spoiled in about one more year with Scha Dara Parr, King Giddra, and ナオヒロック＆スズキスムース. Screen grab from Mobile Fighter G Gundam Prologue Special (1994), same year we got gems from Gang Starr, Nas, Beastie Boys, Jeru The Damaja, Method Man, and more.

Disappointed to see DJ Qbert using Ai slop for new Scratchy Seal records. It's one thing to see someone just share a post because they don't know better, but Qbert actively chose to use Ai instead of hiring artists. I'm not in the mood to babysit my elders, but definitely not supporting him now.

It's sad to see old heads in Hip Hop using generative Ai. Many of them either use it as an "easy button" for making promo, writing essays, or get easily distracted by the "shiny keys" of some video remix of 70s kung-fu movies and something else. How do we educate them that is not ok? #NoAi 🚫🤖

It’s notable that Yuji Ohno appeared in quite a few Lupin III specials! I think 6 or 7? I’d have to rewatch and make notes again. He and Yasuo Otsuka cameo’d the most in the series, by far.

Yuji Ohno was one of the very best to ever do it. Without him, I wouldn’t have fallen head over heels for Lupin. My life wouldn’t be the same without being so taken by that iconic theme. His work on that series and beyond mean more to me than words can describe. Rest in peace, king.

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Yuji Ohno. A legendary musician who was the heart & soul of most of the music of Lupin the Third for nearly 50 years will certainly live on as his music & themes will continue to be synonymous with the famous thief.

For Pos, healing meant facing the grief, speaking on it, and pouring that love into the music - making sure Dave's presence is felt in every moment. Grief doesn't go away. But expressing it can change how it lives with you.

Okay, the length of one LP wasn't enough. I still have about a chapter and a half. In retrospect, this was the more obvious choice.
