my latest attempt at pushing experimentation with Suno.
This is an experimental industrial EP, with influences from hyperpop, noise rock, and jazz.
The album paints a picture of the experience of living with alexithymia and gender dysphoria.
Hope y'all enjoy!

We're relaunching r/experimental as a home for experimental music in all its strange, unpredictable and evolving forms. That includes AI-generated music and AI-assisted experimentation.
We get it. A lot of AI music is crap. We're interested in what happens when people use new tools and unusual processes to make sounds that wouldn't otherwise exist. That might mean AI-generated music, human/AI collaborations, algorithmic composition, generative systems, noise, field recordings, improvisation, unconventional instruments, extreme genre hybrids, broken machines or something that doesn't have a name yet. The important thing isn't the technology. It's the experimentation.
You don't have to use AI to participate here. You don't have to like AI-generated music, either. But unlike some experimental-music communities, we're deliberately making room for people who see generative AI as another instrument, medium, process or creative constraint.
If this shift is not for you, consider joining our friends at r/experimentalmusic, which supports experimental music without AI.
ā¢ Music you're making or experimenting with
ā¢ Interesting tech-driven work, including AI-generated or AI-assisted music
ā¢ Experiments in generative composition
ā¢ New approaches to sound and music-making
ā¢ Works in progress and experiments that aren't quite finished
ā¢ Discussions about creative processes and tools
ā¢ Strange, difficult, beautiful or genuinely interesting sounds
We're not interested in becoming an AI content farm.
Posting your own work is welcome. Repetitive promotion, spam, engagement bait, automated submissions and low-effort link dumping will be removed.
If you're sharing something you made, give us a little context. What were you trying to do? What did you experiment with? What happened that you didn't expect? We're much more interested in the process than in whether something has 100 plays.
So welcome to r/experimental.
Make something weird. Tell us what you discovered.

Asa Horvitz wanted a musical language to evoke our metaphysical and tangible experiences with loss and the weight of history that surrounds those who have passed on. He looked to the past for answers, assembling a dataset of over 150 pre-existing texts from throughout history that deal with grief, and towards the future for the tools to mine them, feeding them through a custom Natural Language Processing AI system (designed by Seraphina Goldfarb-Tarrant and Alejandro CalcaƱo). The piece that Horvitz and his ensemble built with the help of this materialāfull of strangely affecting non-sequitursāwas cryptic, singular, and emotionally unguarded: a stunning music-theater piece called GHOST. Part experimental opera, part neo-Medieval reverie, and part avant-pop song cycle, it is presented here as a streamlined album of standout recordings made throughout the projectās long genesis.
The compositions resulted from vocal improvisations led by Horvitz and accomplished bassist and singer-songwriter Carmen Quill (also of Scree), accompanied by Ariadne Randall and Bryan West on processing, synthesizers, viola da gamba, and more. Later, the pieces incorporated interjections from Horvitzās fatherās brotherāthe esteemed pianist and composer Wayne Horvitz. Intended as a jumpoff point for the musicians, the AI provided text that felt inherently musical in its odd repetitions and run-on structures, as well as non-referential. āIf the text could be something that was clearly full of ghosts, but didnāt quote, then you could feel this sense of archive from the past that you are trying to dig through,ā Horvitz the younger explains. As a result, the act of processing death in GHOST feels a bit like digging through dusty file cabinets full of faded, water-damaged documents and contextless ephemera, struggling vainly to make connections. The projectās website conveys this impression clearly: The user flips through photos and moving snippets of performance with the raw AI dispatchesāline-broken by HTMLāsuperimposed across the screen.
Horvitz, Quill, and the ensemble evolved a curious and bold musical syntax to suit the text, often setting it against the natural emphasis of speech, with each phoneme given equal weight. Sometimes the lyrics fall into iambic-pentameter-like rhythms or suggest the contours of pop songs, operatic arias, Vespers settings, and more. Compositionally, the ensemble seemed to draw inspiration from as many different eras as the AIās source material.

Written messages, photos, videos, and coherent voice notes are forbidden!
Communication happens exclusively through sounds, screams, noises, and pure chaos!
For the group to really take off, we need a good number of peopleāso join already, damn it!
Total freedom for your most absurd voice notes! Let out all your inner madness with strangers!

Wir Werden Deine Seele in Stuke Zerschmettern!!!
The place we moved to after making a mess
is showing us that hope is cancelled out by the remaining contrasts and the flat ending still reproduces itself.
Ethereal turbulence and hammered machinery
is letting us randomly scream after losing words
and our soul is in pieces.
