3.5 has its flaws, but it can give decent renditions of ice nine kills-like stuff which 3.0 had issues with:
Whores in a ditch
Annihilation
Annihilation
ice nine kills make good horror-themed metalcore-adjacent music. most of their output is kind of campy filler shout-outs to random horror films but they have some solid songs like welcome to horrorwood, savages and um stabbing in the dark.
the AI generally seems to associate them with the campy horror side, but that can be fun too.
other than that, the time limit is now 4, but I'm kind of used to keeping within 2-3 mins. most genres which suno favours tend towards shorter song lengths, anyway, since it tends to be v. vocal-focused and the easiest way to get a longer song is just a word-heavy genre like rap. so ig you
could just write rap songs
Yeah, you've seen them about, the rap singers? You've seen the rap singers, on the - on the
Top of the Pops they have them, don't they? They used to come on there, didn't they? The rappers, the rap singers come on the
Top Of The Pops.
You've seen them on there, there'd be a young woman singing, and then one of the rappers would come on and they'd talk, and do a little dance. You've seen them, the rappers, the rap singers on the
Top Of The Pops now. They're on the on a lot of the adverts now. They might have a rap singer on one of the adverts.
It might be a sausage, or some wool or something, and there'll be a rap about it, about how good the sausage is.
You've seen them on the... You've seen them on the
Top Of The Pops and on the adverts. You've seen the rap singers, you've seen them, yeah, you know what I'm talking about, the rap singers, and on the films they have them now. You might see a film in the pictures and James Bond or someone, he might go in one of these nightclubs and there'll be a rapper in there doing a rap. You've seen them, yeah, on the
Top of the Pops and in the, in the adverts. In the films, they might have them.
And, um, in the shopping centre you see them as well, don't you, the rappers? They run along the, um, you know, there's like a hand rail — a banister along the steps there.
now yeah maybe writing only long rap songs isn't my thing
instead I just thought of quickly practicing with something that could drag on to ~3k words and is within the genres which suno favours (and isn't a rambling monologue by stewart lee), and it's like, well a teenfoid's diary entries could drag on forever and modern pop is often interminable diaristic foid shit. so yeah.
(when using a somewhat generic foid voice in style prompt, the AI seemed to draw on previous songs it had generated as well. which worked fine here + was appropriate, but funnily 3.5 has problems producing the same thing when prompted to.)
this song was informed by a deep literary engagement with the diary of anne frank:
Knew this one girl obsessed with history,
Can't relate, don't care for what I can't see,
But sometimes want to be killed in your blitzkrieg,
Genocide me, ignore my screams,
Set me free, I'll Arbeit for you all evening,
Spend the morning after crying like a freak.
[chorus]
Giving in
Just feels like the best thing,
Take me into you,
My heart's forever true,
I just want to surrender
Oh, to you
To you
3.5 does have problems with a few things that 3.0 is good at, as I said it's a bit worse for more spacious and raw artists. plus 3.5 sometimes gives a different take on a vocalist, which is often true to their most recent works but not always what works best. so I still use 3.0 a bit, it produces better results for some songs.
