    Musicians Brought Back From The Dead And Olympics Boycott | Episode 7

    Bringing Musicians Back To Life?
    Each Song Bears An Eerily Striking Resemblance To The Respective Artists. To Create The Music, Over The Bridge Enlisted An Ai Algorithm That Listened To Isolated Elements Of The Four Musicians, Learning The Hooks, Rhythms, Melodies And Lyrics To Then Create Its Own Musical Elements. The Ai-generated Stems Were Then Mixed And Mastered By An Audio Engineer To Create A Convincing Track.

    The Four Songs Mimic The Tonal Qualities Of Amy Winehouse, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain And Jim Morrison, Imagining What Music By The Artists Were Like Had They Not Passed Away.
