Ship real songs with AI — writing, vocals, instrumentation, mixing, and release.
A ten-module course for musicians, producers, and hobbyists making real songs with AI. Craft-first, tool-agnostic where possible, honest about copyright. You start by mapping the 2026 AI music landscape and building a personal reference library; you end by releasing a track (or 3-track EP) on a real platform with a production doc that shows every prompt, every tool, every decision. The course is opinionated: aggressive AI-slop avoidance, reference-driven prompting, deliberate iteration, and honest about what AI can and can't do in 2026. Every module ships a concrete artifact — a reference library, a keeper track, a mix, a release — so you're never just reading.

Ship a single or 3-track EP publicly on at least one platform (Bandcamp, SoundCloud, or a paid aggregator to Spotify/Apple). Submit: released track URL(s), production doc (every prompt, every tool, every decision), attribution block (what AI did vs. what you did), and a cost analysis.
I'm taking "AI Music: From Prompt to Released Track" — a 10-module course for making real songs with AI (Suno, Udio, MusicGen, Stable Audio, ElevenLabs). Craft-first, tool-agnostic. I'll ship a released track by the end. Here's my context: 1. My musical background (none / hobbyist / intermediate / pro): [describe] 2. My target genre(s): [pick 2-3 you actually love] 3. My goal (personal / EP / commercial / soundtrack): [pick] 4. My tool budget: [< $10 / $10-30 / $30+ per month] Given that, answer: - Which 2 tools should I start with, and why? - What's the ONE prompt technique that would move the needle most for my genre? - What's the smallest first track I could ship this week to build momentum? - What's my expected weekly cost at moderate iteration?
