Don't Let It Bring You Down

[Keith Wilby]

Hi all, it's been a while so ... this is my latest dabble with AI to extract a vocal from one of my stereo recordings from the 90s and put it with a more modern backing track.

Comments welcomed as always.

I use this website (I'm not affiliated with it in any way):

It can produce spectacular results if the source file is a decent recording.

Hi Keith

I like this, chord progressions are great

Interesting use of AI

Cool

Sounds really good. Was the vocal track pretty clean after the extraction?
Going beyond the techy stuff I thought the song itself was very good. Nice job.

Definitely good enough to use with a backing track, probably not acapella. I think the software they used on John Lennon's "Now and Then" was Peter Jackson's Rolls Royce of stem extraction, but the one I use is very affordable with decent enough results.

I try to keep the listener guessing when I can 🤭
