Until or unless tge bug reaches said niche(s)! That said, I guess that AI is predominently used in just the most popular genres
I know a musician Andy Sheppard, who has recently re-worked all of his own old music with the assistance of Ai but they are still very much his songs.
Much the same as Trevor Horn re-worked Frankie Goes To Hollywood songs using the technology of the day, to make them sound better.
I use Qobuz (new releases) and Spotify (playlists), but I do nât think I have seen any AI generated music. Maybe I listen to different music that is of no interest to the people trying to get money from uploading AI junk. I also use internet radio stations to discover new music.
I had thought there was something idiosyncratic to your setup up but no, Spotify shows the same for me
Mind you it sounds like an AI Killers or somesuch.
Qobuz has it but seems to be able to flag it as âotherâ so as to give some idea that itâs perhaps not even better than the real thing and the main discography is free of this sh1te.

You are brave, searching for music that you know is polluted by AI. Before you know it, the streaming service algorithm decides that you like that stuff and starts feeding you more ![]()
Streaming wonât die as long as itâs giving you access to 99% of all music on Earth and beyond for $10 a month. Stop complaining.
The problem e.g. for Trygve Seim AI tracks on Tidal is that if you choose âgo to the artistâ option on those the bio of the real Trygve Seim is displayed. Easy to spot though that the items are not part of the real artistâs catalog.
Where are you finding 99% of all music on Earth for $10 a month? I have looked at buzz Wing wanting to download albums and out of curiosity punched in a handful of albums I have, wondering if that sort of thing was on their site - and about half werenât. (For clarity, they would have been British or possibly American published music from the latter part of the 20th century.)
Donât be pedantic. You know what I mean.
Ah but that other 1% is the cream of the crop, high fidelity, artistically uncompromised, heart achingly profound sweet soul music.
Human nature will want to search out this 1% of the pinnacle of civilisationâs music and desert the platforms that have the remainder of the commercial pap.
Mark my words!

I donât have an updates feed, so streaming will be alive and kicking around here for some time to come.
Can l suggest disabling updates feed might solve your problem. ![]()
Itâs always you one-percenters! ![]()
The magic 1%!
Maybe only 1% of Naim owners are on this forum. And maybe only 1% of Hifi enthusiasts own Naim gear. And maybe only 1% of music listening population are Hifi enthusiastsâŠ
I am more critical, and faster to be so, than most but I havenât noticed this on TIDAL. Could it be a setting?
Streaming is the future but it is its infancy still. It will continue to improve. I accept that there is something magical about vinyl and I enjoyed it with my LP12/42/110 which I sold along with all my LPs in 1985. I wouldnât go back and now that my system has reached a point where the musical experience from streaming meets my needs I am happy with streaming.
Youâve only to look at Naimâs product line to see that they see the future in the same way.
It seems that some of the reactions here are just ever so slightly missing the point. There are indeed many different ways in which one can get recommendations, I donât think we disagree on that. But one of the (formerly) helpful means is on the way to becoming unusable. And no, is it not my Tidal settings that cause this, and no, looking at the artistâs profile does not help, as these tracks appear under the real artist, but are just by someone trying to piggyback on their good name. That others donât see this is because, for now, they seem to be mostly targeting artists in a specific niche (Scandinavian jazz and associated performers, see below). Maybe whoever they are are just testing the waters, trying to keep under the radar, to learn how they can evade detection and make an easy profit. The core of the problem is, as e.g. @jan already mentioned, that it is very, very simple indeed to add stuff to the streaming platforms under other peopleâs good names.
Some examples:
- the âartistâ called siri fatmawait targets Mathias Eick, Harmen Fraanje, Jacob Young and Ferenc SnĂ©tberger
- the âartistâ called ZAENAL ABDULLAH targets Jacob Bro, Thomas Morgan and Palle Mikkelborg
- the âartistâ called Luthfi targets Trygve Seim and Anders Jormin
- the âartistâ called Ginto saputra targets Arild Andersen, Thomas Morgan, Mats Eilertsen, Björn Meyer and Markus Stockhausen
- the âartistâ called JEFFRY FATUNLEBIT targets Mathias Eick, Gianluigi Trovesi and Yonathan Avishai
- the âartistâ called NYAYU RAHMAYANI targets Louis Sclavis, Nelson Veras and StĂ©phane Kerecki
- ec. etc. the list goes on and on
I raised the issue of Andy Sheppard capitalisation with Tidal as I dislike it. Their response was that they take what the record label gives them, without alteration, so you may be right.
I think with many of these apps using âsmartâ search algorithm that it would be helpful to reset all input and history for a clean start. It seems like they get stuck sometimes.
Move to Spotify lossless is the answer.
