    Is AI Killing Music’s Soul? Benefits, Backlash & the Human Touch| #230

    In this unfiltered deep dive, Curly, Braggy, and Rossy tackle one of the hottest (and most divisive) topics in music right now: the explosive rise of AI-generated music. We break down the real benefits — democratising creation, smashing through writer’s block, and giving bedroom creators superpowers — alongside the serious challenges: job displacement for musicians, copyright chaos, flooding the market with “good enough” tracks, and the big question of soul and authenticity. To keep it grounded in real Aussie grit, we spotlight a fresh track born from the our Community and the Your Pace & Glory Project: “Servo Pie” by Rob Steele & the Thieves. This raw pub-punk anthem was created with AI assistance (Suno) but finished with proper human touch, coordination, and mastering by Tony Curl. It’s the perfect case study: Can humans outplay the machine when it comes to genuine, sing-along, late-night servo stories that actually mean something to Australian ears? The Servo Pie Sessions. Check out our website for more information We discuss: How AI is speeding up music making and opening doors for undiscovered talent The risks of market saturation and losing emotional depth Why “human touch” still matters in a world of instant tracks Whether artists can (and should) use AI as a collaborator rather than a replacement Welcome to the Servo Pie Sessions — a hands-on way for musical artists to experiment, and compete against the machine. Can you beat the Suno version of Servo Pie? If you’re a musician, producer, or just love real Aussie rock and honest conversations, this episode is for you. Featured Music “Servo Pie” (Lyric Video) – Rob Steele & the Thieves A greasy, fuzzed-out pub-punk ode to midnight servo stops, hot pies, burnt mouths, and no regrets. Inspired by Cosmic Psychos and Amy & The Sniffers. Watch the lyric video here: https://youtu.be/_bZRwl7FaaI Credits: Songwriting: Unfiltered & Undiscovered Community Created with: Your Pace & Glory Project (using Suno) Human Touch, Co-ordination & Mastering: Tony Curl Key Discussion Points The Upside — Faster creation, idea generation, accessibility for new artists, and hybrid human-AI workflows. The Downside — Revenue threats to working musicians, copyright lawsuits, generic output, and questions around authenticity. The Servo Pie Example — How AI can spark a track, but real human coordination and mastering give it genuine Aussie pub energy and sing-along heart. Servo Pie Sessions — A practical invitation for musical artists to experiment, and compete against the machine.

    This episode of Unfiltered & Undiscovered sees the boys diving headfirst into high‑energy rock with Sydney’s own STARCRAZY — a band fusing glam rock attitude, power pop hooks, and progressive edge into what they proudly call PowerProg.
