@@Pyritieoh man, they got me good with this one. I just read the whole description about the project trying to reimagine a lost music era. I thought I had found my new Satellite Lovers
Wait a minute, you're telling me this album was never actually released back in 1981 and has JUST been made?? As a musician who's also strongly influenced by this genre, this is HEAVEN, thank you
As a huge fan of bands like Casiopea and Ryo Kawasaki, im thrilled to see a project like this, the music truly speaks for itself. After reading through the comments, its clear that this project reflects how much victim culture has influenced the way we engage with this type of media. As the creators themselves have pointed out, mockumentaries and ARGs used to operate in the same way (without immediately revealing the truth behind the concept) and part of the fun was discovering it as you went. Today people seem to feel personally betrayed by this approach, which may stem from the stigma surrounding AI. That said, this channel is about much more than just AI. Theres a clear artistic vision and a strong focus on storytelling. The songs arent just randomly thrown together, they follow a deliberate and cohesive structure that feels immersive and intentional. Whether or not someone agrees with AI involvement, its hard to deny the effort behind this channel.
Without openness about the nature of the use of AI, you are contributing to the eventual loss of the human ability to properly chronicle history until the invention of AI detection.
Our channel is a fictional project that openly uses AI, as clearly stated in the description of the video. There’s no intent or claim here to document real history. Also, your assumption that historians use UA-cam as a tool for chronicling is misplaced. This is not a repository of historical records but a platform for content creation, no serious historian would use fictional UA-cam content as a source for chronicling history.
@PhantasiaRecords idk dude. The amount of like people's research papers i have watched on UA-cam to me means that it would almost be irresponsible for historians NOT to look at youtube. There really has never been anything like it before, and the fact that I can still go watch videos from however many years ago is almost irresponsible the notion that youtube wouldn't be used to document the nuance of history in ways that previously was unavailable to us. I think you might be limiting yourself to thinking our history will not be studied for basically the entire continued existence of this or any other replacement species that finds this. I like the music, but I do agree that it needs to be stated somewhere a little more clearly that this is A.I.. Claiming that you are open and honest about it is super misleading when there has been so much done to authenticate it otherwise. One teeny tiny little throwaway sentence in the middle of the swamp of a description. TL;DR THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS BEING AI, HOWEVER AFTER READING THROUGH EVERYTHING ITS HARD NOT TO FEEL TRICKED A LITTLE BIT WHICH DOESNT HELP ME WANT TO COME BACK AND LISTEN TO MORE.
@@RadicoolestAgreed. The creator totally knew what they were doing with this made up but overly detailed story about some Japanese band, to an extent where I've already seen people who've believed them. I've noticed this recent trend of 'artists' randomly popping up and releasing loads of content at a breakneck speed, with their cover arts designed in the same fashion, and thus correctly assumed it was sus. They absolutely should've been more clear about it.
@@Radicoolest If I have to be completely honest, most listeners will not read past the fancy and detailed 'band' description, and even the admittance of using AI is extremely vague and hidden in the midst of flowery, emotion-inspiring text. I don't mind the usage of AI itself, but I strongly suspect the description is pretty much designed to trick people. That's what leaves such a bad taste in my... ears, I guess. Like I've mentioned, there's also been a wave of similar AI creators following similar patterns. And I just don't feel like yet another content creator has decided to do this 'out of passion for 80s Japanese funk' in 2024. Mostly these channels are an easy way to earn money 'cause people tend to listen to such albums from start to finish (sometimes on repeat) in order to relax, while the creator doesn't have to put in nearly as much time and effort as actual music producers have to. Again, if a listener deems such music is worth their time, who am I to judge? But at least they should be making informed decisions.
@@aimee9478The primary goal of this channel is to craft an immersive, fictional experience-presenting a band as if it were real, much like other forms of lost media or narrative-driven content. The storytelling and atmosphere are integral to creating a sense of authenticity, which is a core part of the creative process. This approach is meant to transport listeners into a different world, much like watching a mockumentary or engaging with alternate reality games. Regarding your concern about transparency, I want to address why we’ve chosen to place the note about AI at the end of the description. There’s no intent to deceive-our aim is to avoid disrupting the immersive experience right at the start. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of skepticism and strong emotions surrounding AI, often based on misconceptions. If listeners dismiss the project outright before even engaging with it, they miss the chance to actually enjoy the music. If they later discover the AI aspect and choose not to support it, that’s completely fine. For those who never read the description or find out about the AI involvement, that’s fine, too. If they enjoy the music without knowing the tools behind it, then the art has done its job, it connected with someone on a purely creative and emotional level, which is what matters most to us. As for the role of AI, I want to emphasize that we don’t view it as an invasive or “cheating” technology. For us, it’s simply a tool-one part of a larger creative process that also involves curation, direction, and human-made musical input. It’s no different than any other innovative tool artists have used throughout history to push boundaries and create something new. If our primary goal were to make money, creating a fictional band would be the last thing we’d do. This approach puts us in a vulnerable position because the AI nature of the project becomes apparent due to the lack of online information about the band-not because of the quality of the music itself. If profit was our focus, we’d simply follow the common trend of uploading anonymous 1-2 hour playlists with no mention of AI involvement. We’d also have leaned into lo-fi from the start, as it’s the most popular genre for AI-generated music, gets played on repeat, and delivers the best results with current models. I understand the skepticism toward projects like this, especially with the rise of AI-driven content. But I can assure you, this isn’t a hollow attempt to ride a trend or make “easy money.” It’s a passion project rooted in a genuine love for the genre. If this approach doesn’t resonate with you, that’s okay. Art isn’t one-size-fits-all. But I hope this response helps clarify our intentions and the thought behind this project.
The cover is beautiful
Blessed algorithm pull

@@Pyritie Since when does AI slaps this hard tho
Got me too. The music is strangely good for AI though, seems odd.
@GameWorldNarrativesdid the creator said its ai?
@@Flotien yes it's at the end of the description. also this band doesn't exist!
This album IS cool
Wait a minute, you're telling me this album was never actually released back in 1981 and has JUST been made??

Justo para las navidades 🍻
That's so cool of an album cover. I like the music btw :)

This is going straight on the Sunday afternoon playlist.
🎉yeet
This is too good to be true
Something this good would never have flown so far under the radar for 40+ years XD
literally correct
Will be interesting to see how this AI project fares on the algorithm. A little misleading with the year/artist info but the music speaks for itself.
Speaks for itself?!! You might just want to speak for yourself on that.

love it, was JUST saying how great this 70-90s Japanese funk was.
This is AI generated? As a musician... I think I'm cooked ya'll.
Nah, artists are in the description
@@SneakyFlickHow strange then that search engines can't find anything about such a Japanese band, wouldn't you think?
@@dhollsynthmusicScroll to the end. It is, indeed, AI-generated, and their cute band story is made up.
What made you think this was AI lmfao
Edit: I fell for it too. They should be more clear with that imo
@SneakyFlick The AI bit is also in the description my guy.
This is so good!! Easy sub from me 🎉
Eso es ia
unbelievable
vibing!
i like it ! its passes a citypop vibe
that's wild
this was cool until i realized its ai generated.
The grooviness is going through my phone rn
im such a fucking hypocrite, knowing ai usage makes me not want to listen to this
