7 hours ago, Agentsmith said: Already said here but, it remains that the Four Vandals involved real musicians and real singer. Just an attempt to duplicate the sound of the 60's and fool everyone into thinking it was actually a previously undiscovered tune, in the event djs got duped as well..a particular confrontation at the Kings Hall Stoke springs to mind when the truth got out😲🤣 though it wasn't funny in that moment.
AI with regards music, is 100% invention, the human being still has to teach it first
Everyone seems to be missing the point on this.
Whether the Four Vandals was, a real record, singer, (Steve Bernstein) or real musicians were used is not the issue.
Whether people liked, disliked or knew all along that it was not legit is also of no consequence, I was not my intention to re open this well worn topic
I used the FVs as an example of how the scene was and, can be manipulated. As pointed by Geeselad, Richard Searling played this on his Sunday radio show additionally a well known Dj parted with a large sum of cash to own the record. The fact that people were mis led is undeniable.
The AIGs being posted at the moment are pretty crude,although some are some better than others.
They will inevitibly get much, much better, in the hands of a skilled sound engineer,and introduction of orchestral backing etc they will be indistinguishable from the real thing.
Cut to vinyl, and placed into a box at a US record fair (as an example) in very similar to the way that the FVs was fed into the scene, hey presto, Sallys your uncle & Bobs your Aunt. If you tell me I've got that the wrong way round see the AIG video, its the one after the dog flying a plane !
Impossible ?, they won't fool me ? I'd like to think that I'm in that camp,but, If Elton John and Paul Mcartney think AI might be problamatic for the wider music scene, then I'll air on the side of caution.

5 minutes ago, Woodbutcher said: The easy way to tell will still be the physical item the "discovery" was made from , whether that be a 45 , acetate or master tape.
None of these have been succesfully replicated/counterfeited to a standard to fool close scrutiny yet , so unless some magical AI robot suddenly appears to do the authentication then there'll be no worries on that score.
And even if there were no bugger would believe its findings ...
That's not to say that the youngsters down in the west country won't embrace these with open arms.
Four Vandals - fooled a few people for a while
-
Believe me they are just testing the water at the moment, they will add whatever defect you require, rice crispies, cue burn, off centre, no problem sir
The quality of the product will become much better, it will be impossible to distinguish between a genuine new discovery and that which is A I generated.
The saving grace could be , in the tech world mass availabilty is key to sucess, whereas, exclusivity is an integral component of the soul scene.

Several previous A I topics have been discussed on SS, but for those that haven't yet seen it, take a look at this on you tube

Firstly, Teds well being and safety are the most important thing here, as such I send Ted my best wishes and a speedy recovery from what must have been an horrendous experience.
The worrying thing about this incident is that whichever angle you look at it from, it all leads back to someone who, knows the scene & knows Ted's collection.
I doubt very much that it was organised yesterday at the gig but more than likely planned over a few weeks, therefore I think the perpetrator or perpetrators, know exactly where and how to move them on. The risks taken in obtaining the records would surely indicate that the motive is for financial gain. Although anyone with an understanding of the scene must know they cant be sold as a collection in an open market.
If they are going into a private collection what's the point ? they can never be shown to anyone and they cant be played out.
The idea mooted by a previous poster about offering a reward for "safe return" is all well and good but it puts every collection and Dj in the country in jeopardy.
I know there is never ever such thing as a victimless crime, but it really takes a special kind of low life to steal or harm someone from your own community and I hope that they are caught quickly and dealt with severely.

I never knew Smokie back in the day ,but when I moved to the Midlands in 94 our paths crossed and it soon emerged in conversation that we also shared a passion for Rugby League. He used to tell me about his time living in St Helens, telling me that he had played a few amateur games with Thatto Heath and he was genuinely interested to talk about my days playing with Shevy Sharks.
We always ended up talking about music though and his love for the modern side of things, one of his favourite tunes was Michael Whycoffes "Looking up to You" which he always asked me to play.
I'm pleased to have known one of the scenes biggest characters, a lovely man, a tough man, and above all, an honest man.
RIP my friend, you always made me laugh when ever we met, but today "I'll be Looking up to You" with a tear in my eye.
God Bless x
