Social media platforms are altering the music creation landscape, with music features, such as TikTok remixes, inspiring artists to release new versions of their songs, made by fans on the platform.
The demand for interactive and creative music experiences is growing, with 55% of Younger Millennial music/podcast listeners interested in using AI text prompts to create music. AI music tools are set to change the way consumers create and express themselves, turning from passive to active listeners. Streaming platforms can become interactive spaces where users can mix and craft tracks or create remixes, offering a more hands-on experience.
Artists can license their sounds to AI tools, and cater to young listeners’ desire for self-expression. This allows fans without the technical skills to create music in the style of their favourite artists and connect with the online music community.
Transparency about AI involvement in music creation will be vital. 64% of 16-44-year-old music listeners want to know if AI was used in the music they listen to. This highlights the importance of maintaining human creativity and authenticity. Artists and platforms must be transparent about AI usage to build trust and respect for artistic integrity, and label their work as AI-generated on platforms.
Music listeners want AI transparency. The need for clarity reaffirms the desire for human creativity and authenticity in music.
