Nice video . Can you write a song that is a hybrid between SRV and another very different musician? Something that is not just going back and forth between riffs but where it's very blended. That would be interesting. I wonder if the AI could help on that. For instance what would a hybrid of an SRV solo and Sultans of Swing or Blackbird by the Beatles sound like?
Or the Lenny solo mixed with Dogs by Pink Floyd.
Also in the video on how to ingrain a lick, I would say use a pitch shifting playback app and learn it in all 12 keys but when doing this not changing from one key to the next key chromatically, instead randomly selecting the next key or just writing down 12 keys in random order before starting. That makes it harder in a good way, in that you don't get used to any predictable modulation. If you improvise in some key that is not often used but with the same chord progression it can give you new ideas. So when you take the progression through all the keys and record improvisations you can then go back to the original key and transpose some of those new ideas back to the original key.
Then a further version is try to change the lick from major to minor or minor to major and see if it still sounds good. If it does then it can have even more application and it might also set apart from just being a straight copy.
Do you know this song by Roy Buchanan- The Messiah has come ? It's a great one, I think might fit your tastes
Also Frank Marino - Live at the Agora Theatre - Something's Comin' Our Way (this one build in intensity over 12 minutes)
what is that blue strat? you should make a video on it!
Hey. Someone was impersonating you to get money of off people on a comment I made in this video. I reported it, but thought I would mention it, incase you have some UA-cam magic you can do, that I can't. Hope you are well. Cheers.
This is what AI-generated art is best at. Giving you something to use as inspiration for your own art.
Yeah, but isn't using AI for your art kinda cheating the creative process, like an athlete only winning because of some new designer PEDs.
i would rather go outside for a walk and look at things that i usualy dont but i guess you are right
@@ursula3438 Yes, so people would not be able to relate to the athlete. Ai would be like watching fish dressed like humans in the swimming olympics and a dumbed down unsuspecting public watching.
@@ursula3438 No, because art isn't a competition. You can't "cheat" at something that is not competitive and has no rules to begin with
@@ursula3438 How is it different from borrowing from another artists song and building out your own idea? Not arguing the ethics of AI coming to steal all our jobs or copyright laws or anything but this is at least more ethical when compared to stealing from another artist.
If Jon Bon Jovi sees these lyrics he's going to release his sequel to Dead or Alive.
Thank you for mentioning Croz's death... he left a huge legacy not only as a singer-songwriter, but in how he dealt with harmony in general.
Maybe my perception is off but I found it odd that his passing didn't get the attention that I would have expected in spite of his very significant contribution to the music scene over the last many decades
@@jp2246 I don't live in the US, here in Brazil his passing got about two minutes of tribute on TV whic isn't impressive considering how few people know his music around here... But yeah, he deserved much more than that
@@KleversonRoyther Thanks for the reply! Here in the US I expected a significant amount of media attention, but in my opinion it was pretty minimal, I was very surprised
I think the legality and copyright problem with ChatGPT is a intresting topic. There really isnt a clear cut way to solve it either. We'll have to see where it goes i suppose.
My first thought was: It's either gonna be "perfect" or someone is gonna want to make profit out of it which would also make privacy issues a bit more concerning. Still, I think it may generally hurt the intent, identity and progress/growth of creators.
There's probably a lot more to it though...
For image generation there already has been a number of copyright lawsuits, stable diffusion is currently facing one. The argument there is, that the result, while never an exact copy, is *derivative* of the copyrighted artworks that were used to train the model. A work would be considered transformative, if the new art piece has enough "new" ideas, features, additional information etc. that makes it fair use. (I'm not that familiar with law, let alone us law, so take that with a grain of salt)
In my personal opinion though, stable diffusion using copyrighted images and fusing them together into a completely new image, is no different than a human artist using those original artworks as "inspiration" for their own work. The original images are not present in the trained model, or only very implicitly and arguably not recoverable, in the neural networks weight parameters. So in my opnion, these copyright claims don't really have a case.
As far as ownership of the generated pieces goes, that is different for music and images imo. Music is a performed art, and while a specific recording of a music piece should be copyrightable, the "idea" of the song shouldn't be - again, in my opnion. The court seems to disagree with me on that, looking back on the precedents of the last few years with the ed sheeran/marvin gaye thing and so on. There is a long and rich history of music, making use of existing chord changes and melodies to create something new, be it Jazz improvisation or a Hip-Hop producer sampling old vinyls, and I think much would be lost if we deemed all of that illegal. I think the copyright system is long overdue for an overhaul anyways, and this AI thing would be a good time to start doing that.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Here is what chatgpt has to say about it. But who knows if this is true or not, lol:
"Yes, if you use the lyrics generated by the model, you would need to give credit to OpenAI in accordance with the CC BY 4.0 license mentioned earlier. This would typically involve including a statement such as "Generated by OpenAI" or "Lyrics generated by OpenAI" alongside the lyrics. The exact form of the credit will depend on the specific use case and context, but the aim should be to clearly indicate that the lyrics were generated by OpenAI and to provide a link to the OpenAI website if possible."
Oh! these videos are gold. Especially for long time SammyG viewers. Keep 'em coming, sensei!
I can definitely get behind watching this every Sunday. I do it at night and it’s the best way to wrap up my weekend
Glad you decided to keep going with this series! Very fun and relaxed
The g is silent in Hipgnosis. It’s a play on Hypnosis. They used to make album covers for Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, etc.), Led Zeppelin (Houses of the Holy, Presence, Physical Graffiti, In Through the Out Door, etc.) and several other artists. They are now building a publishing house as a retirement system for Rock stars.
Also, gnosis means knowledge. So, hip knowledge...
I already love this new series. ❤
Good stuff as always, Sammy. Thank you. Have a great week ahead.
I think something about AI art that is worth thinking about you didn't mention, it's not just the writers of the code that essentially "co-wrote" the song, there are all the people whose data it collected to train the AI. Do those people get a cut?
Do the people who wrote the songs that inspire musicians get a cut? No. It's an interesting question. A similar thing, I think. It's not as if ChatGPT is just copying and pasting existing songs.
Hows that any different to writing a song with another artists song as inspiration?
Does everyone get a cut of Captcha's as they are being used to train AI models? No. Also another thing to think of is that these aren't actually AI - they do not think. They just take prompts and extrapolate portions of art that humans have done. This is literally no different than humans being inspired by and making art that is extremely similar to each other and being fine with it.
No
@@jacobfife7273 ai isn't a human being. Ai doesn't feel anything. Ai isn't emotionally moved by a piece of music.
Love these Sunday videos so far.
It feels like were all just shrugging our shoulders looking at this AI stuff, and will have to create laws fairly quickly. Right now were all too caught up in the novelty.
I really enjoy this series. Hope you keep it going for a long time
I think the AI got thrown off by the word "guns." I got more of a Bon Jovi vibe from those lyrics.
def has 'wanted DoA' vibes
I asked it to write a song in the style of Oasis.
It wrote the line "because I wanna be a superstar like Oasis".
@@robinr22 I could see Liam singing that.
@@robswystun2766 ha ha, fair point!
I'm not sure the pedals are necessarily heavily modified (Although it is John Frusciante so certainly not beyond the realms of probability). I think the fact that you can buy the pedals very easily is deliberate for touring musicians. If one of your pedals breaks while on tour you can easily get a replacement in a very short space if it is something fairly common. A replacement for your $10,000 Klon Centaur would be somewhat harder and take longer to obtain.
Loved the intro!
Comments from Dave, Roger, Nick and Richard on the 50th of Dark Side, priceless :-D
DEFINITELY one of the two best episodes so far!!
Loving this new series, was waiting for this
These are great! Love this segment. Thanks!
Definitely top two Sunday episode! Your off center sense of humor kicks my funny bone square in the nuts sometimes.
Digging these Sunday videos though, hoping the next one is top three content lol.
loving SGS. please keep making these.
I'm digging this new format. Keep them coming!
I like this chill format. Keep it going!
Yoooooooooo, cool jam at the start!
Great shit as always, Sammy G! This is probably one of my favorite things you've done, it's a great balance of all your types of content. Arigatou, sensei!
Thank you Sammy g I'm so excited for weekly samurai guitarist videos
Dude I absolutely love your stuff! I am mainly a metalhead but watching your videos makes me appreciate the softer side of things. I've been pondering on getting a git fiddle with some single coils just because of how awesome you make it sound. Keep up the good work my samurai friend!
"This episode is going to be one of the two best ive ever made in this series"
Hmmmmmm.....
Seems about right
Damn bro, that intro jam was some of the best ive heard you play!
I did a little experiment with ChatGPT writing a John Mayer song. It also came up with some pretty generic lyrics, but definitely something a person can work with. I turned it into a full song and afterwards, somebody made me aware of the fact that I could've asked ChatGPT to improve certain parts of the lyrics, which blew my mind again.
Great video!
Yep, I’ve done it too and frankly, the results were pretty average. However, that’s today…give it another year or so and it’s going to be scary good!
@@officialWWM No doubt! The speed at which improves is staggering.
I tried asking it to write a Gaslight Anthem song and it came up with a great song that had nothing to do with the Gaslight Anthem.
@@robinr22 you didn't ask a gaslighting song. Believe me and not anybody/anything else
I don't ever comment on videos, but I had to pop in to say that this format is really enjoyable. Feels super refreshing, fun, and oddly feels like Saturday morning viewing from when I was a kid? Thanks for doing these!
So the Futurama joke about robots composing smooth jazz is about to come true...
One of the things I love about pedals is the fact that its something that you and your favourite guitarist could share in common. I'm not gonna have that expensive Fender guitar or Marshall stack but I sure can have that Turbo Distortion.
Love the samurai sunday videos, please Sammyg, keep making them
We now need to see a spin off cooking channel, Samurai Cooks.
You can start with the guitar chicken.
As a long time viewer, I love this new video format!
The Pink Floyd accusations are the best example of the irrational right. It has happened before with Rage Against The Machine, people want to change the whole meaning of their songs to suit their own life style, so much even a KKK member can sing along "Killing in The Name Of" and somehow turn it into an anthem for Hate of the other. Strange times indeed, but we have been here before, it's just hate American style.
I really like the format and all the SRV licks.
I enjoy Sunday with you. Thank you
Thanks for stopping by!
Yep, long time SammyG fan. Loving these SGS segments and hope they dont stop any time soon
Great stuff, thanks
AI seems to be a search engine that presents its findings in the form of whatever medium you’re using. So for chat - I don’t find it actually comes up with novel thoughts or ideas. It just finds what’s common on the web and then presents the findings as though they are an original thought. Art - similarly - finds images and then tweaks them in the style you’re asking for. I’d have to assume the music is doing the same. Although maybe the guitar stuff will be better since it seems to assume we have nine fingers on each hand.
3 years ago I was blown away by AI dungeon. This was that, amped up to 11. I'm feaful what another 3 years will bring
Nice lighting and production. (Content is good too.)
seriously probably the most humble voice in all of UA-cam. So casual, so cool and collected. And let's not forget talented and genuinely smart as hell. Surprised to hear we relate on having a spouse and cooking 90% of the time + enjoying eating lmao. Figured you'd be obsessed with actual swordplay or something
Great ending question. I am here cause i just dig the "we take it easy,we take it chill" Sammy G. You are just cool bud. Thanks
Love hearing from you
Pink Floyd's first single, Arnold Layne, was about a man who nicks women's garments from clotheslines. If you don't like their ideas, you can listen to Judas Priest, The Kinks or Velvet Underground instead.
Rob Halford is openly gay tho, that might offend some conservatives as well
@@HattieJosh I know, that was my sense of humor... Judas Priest - Living After Midnight, The Kinks - Lola, Velvet Underground - Take a Walk on the Wild Side...
"eating is my passion"
Can confirm. It was the same twenty years ago in high school.
Glad I stumbled across this video. Stay up, Samurai. 🙏🏾
Great video
Ok that chord progression kinda ruled. Especially that modulation into the bridge. Very uplifting
Definitely! Also went from GNR to 70’s Stones in 3.5 seconds.
Keep on keepin on brother
I can’t afford to be a Patreon person but there’s something that’s in the back of my mind that I think will be so cool as far as creator counter matchups I think it’ll be cool to see you and shamus 66 get together and have one hell of a killer jam session
This Channel is so great! So are his online courses!🤟
Love the SGSundays!!!!!!!!
I liked this video in the middle of the initial SRV-style intro. 👍
“It takes two” was amazing, so emotional
Samurai sundays are the best thing this channels has seen IMO
Yesss Sammy G! So good to see another episode!
EYYYY SAMMY! Is that a white Mosrite hanging on the wall?
Love,
Scott
The Pink Floyd rainbow thing: Some people took the "we don't need no education" literally.
this was a very nice video to iron some shirts to. thumbs up for SGS from me lol 👍
Love that Stevie inspired riff at the start.
very much enjoy these Sunday cuts! just an fyi, the "G" is silent in gnosis (no-sis) which is Greek for spiritual knowledge, which is a pretty good play on words for a music catalog company (knowledge of all things hip).
Sammy, I just wanna come out and let you know:
Put up whatever videos you want, I'm here for the Samurai Guitarist
This was nice and felt like I was just hanging out.
AI output is not copyrightable. The parts that a human artist changes or creates can be copyrighted. This was the latest ruling from the US copyright office.
That SRV tease intro though!!!!
Nice Strat! Is it a 64ish transition re-issue? I really like the metallic blue color! It’s not a lake placid blue, is it?
I love SRV!! The universe blessed me today. Love it Sammy G, do a SRV video
It'd be sick to see this series evolve into a pseudo-variety show with a proper set and stuff.
9:39 “in a bulletproof vest”
Awesome!
enjoyed the video…..happen to be making dinner right now. Chicken pasta blend with mushrooms. Pressure cooked the chicken, then pan cooked it with some olive oil, fresh cut mushrooms, and onion. Then added that to a chicken flavored rice medley. Great show!
Definitely my first thought on seeing that 50th anniversary doodle was the prism from The Dark Side of the Moon.
If you ever have guests I would love to see you and fellow Canadian Ian Thornley talk shop !
Or Ariel Posen,
It's only a matter of time before people ask you to fully make that GnR song! With help from other UA-camrs or even Fiverr. Those lyrics and chord progressions are a great start!
yeah this is a fun series.
Gonna revolutionize muzak, that's for sure - computers will always top humans at by-the-numbers skills
That Pink Floyd one just baffles me. Like, have any of these so-called "fans" who were posting that $#!+ even seen the cover of Dark Side Of The Moon? Are they really that oblivious?
At the rate its progressing, what's it gonna look like just next week?! Its crazy!
As Guns n Roses lyrics go, that is excellent. Don't forget to share your royalties.
damn the intro got me like high
The original lyrics were good, I agree. I've heard (written) far worse while actively trying, just like you said.
Your touch-ups were amazing. Felt like when my friend would look at my clunky stuff and delete half of it and turn it into poetry.
But you didn't delete half of it, just changed a word here or there and it was total magic. I had chills at the end of your reading.
WP.
Love this show! The AI stuff is changing the game in every way and it’s insane to watch. Laws are still catching up to the freaking internet, so no way are laws going to be able to adjust to AI quick enough. Wild Wild West baby!!!!
I am pretty sure Greta Van fleet just had AI write a bunch of led Zeppelin songs for them and then tried to sound like Led Zeppelin, That has been my theory since the 1st time I heard them
I had the same idea with chat GPT but with asking it to create a solo over a chord progression. At first it was just a note progression but I got it to focus on a melody, and then asked it to add bends and so on. Ended up using about 90% of what it came up with.
You should make a fully produced version of that AI G'n'R song ;)
The line 6 thing, sometimes the simple things are great cuz it just does what it does and in context of a whole board it shines. Or, it's what you know as an up and come-er and so just use what ya know kind of a thing?
As you say, "Eh!"
Can we hear some rhythm changes for the intro jam next week please?
I like what you pointed out at 17:50 lots of people just like getting a rise where they can and it’s not even about their beliefs
I like this series
I've been following and playing with various AI tools for awhile now, and I think we're at the point where it can be used as a very valid springboard for musical idea. If anyone is interested, I have a little tutorial/example over here: ua-cam.com/video/NlJm-ErA1gg/v-deo.html
Granted, this is more using MPC style pads, but you can easily jam guitar over it, which is what I usually do!
Wow, did the same thing with chatGPT a couple days ago and had the same exact reaction. I'm both fascinated and horrified.
I’m sure Frusciante’s pedalboard is the way it is for touring purposes. He probably leaves the expensive ones at home.
My thoughts on AI writing Music: We shouldn’t be using technology to make EVERYTHING easier. With some tasks, like those that require a lot of physical strength, machines are good for replacing human strength. But music and other forms of art are a way for us humans to express emotions, experiences in life, or a message. What AI can do is mostly write by numbers, which is just bland and the same thing over and over again. We already have the write-by-numbers happening in modern pop music and it is quite boring. IMO the best artists are those who always tried to do something a little different. Artists like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Tears for Fears, Steven Wilson, and many more. Artists who don’t want to repeat themselves too much.
Also, when Sammy mentioned how he could imagine using ChatGPT for changing up a line of a lyric, I had to think about the fact that some people spend weeks trying to come up with better lyrics. And honestly, that’s somewhat of an accomplishment. Should we as human beings try to always reach for the easy way out by using AI? I think creative problems like these should always be solved by humans, even if it takes multiple of us.
Modern pop producers have been using A.I. to make the same bland pop songs over and over again for the past decade. The technology isn't as new as people think. There is a reason why modern pop sounds very 'by the numbers'...
We have been using technology to make EVERYTHING easier in writing and recording music for decades. The Beatles and Pink Floyd used Technology to do Expand their music. Reverb, Tape Delay, Synthesizers these are all tech developments that allowed them to produce the new works they did and it's only grow since then. Virtually zero pieces of music you hear today don't rely on some form of signal processing on every bit of them. Before you claim that's different... These are all tools and the way people use them is what makes their inclusion art. The final piece of art be it music, film, animation, painting, sculpture is what matters. Your method is up to you to choose. You are welcome to your opinion of how you would prefer art to be made and whether you give it any value or not. " I think creative problems like these should always be solved by humans, even if it takes multiple of us." and it has, those other people made ChatGPT.
@@jasonhancox1622 but imagine if everyone starts using it as a crutch like they did with autotune

The changes that are about to happen in music from using ai are massive.
