here's the thing about suno / ai music: it's not for *us*. it's not even for the masses, most people don't care what they listen to as long as it's not actively hostile to their ear drums and generally aligned to their vibe. they've solved infinite options for […] [Original post on threads.com]

I decided to go all-in on Faircamp for kidlightbulbs.com. It's now just a simple little place to listen to everything I've done and a few links (oh and a couple of li'l tweaks that were surprisingly easy to make). Looks good, I think #Musicians of Threads
