Once it dawned to me that artificially intelligent singing voices could lead to surprisingly good results I keenly plunged into some songs that had been shelved for years on end, some of which had been collecting virtual dust for decades. I also keenly drew from lyrics and poems handed to me long ago or even recently. A small explosion of creativity resulted in a colourful collection of all kinds of songs, with the common thread being the link between the past and a future that to all appearances may be closer than is suspected.

 

Notice the difference from many kinds of AI constructed music: these are all actual compositions by a composer of flesh and blood, performed by means of technology available to us today, including artificial intelligence fed with sampled voices of actual singers.

 

Some of the songs have lyrics sung in Dutch; for absolute clarity, these as well English lyrics have been added.
