The appeal of prompting a whole song into existence kind of baffles me for the same reasons you are suggesting but there’s room for fun and creativity in working with samples and given the substantial cottage industry that royalty-free samples already are this was pretty much the first application I was expecting to see in the audio GenAI realm.

Very much agreed! Our goal is to facilitate that fun and creativity that comes from playing with samples :)

I'm not sure if you had the chance to read our post, but one of our core insights is that very idea. Specifically, that words aren't always the best way to communicate what you need when writing music, and so our new product (the Infinite Sample Pack) enables folks to create new sounds without the need for text.
Also, it will be a real disappointment to Diandre when I tell him that his years of touring and releasing 100+ songs don't amount to him being a professional musician.

Fair enough. It’s not for me, but maybe somebody else likes it.
Apologies for the tone.
Using human language as an interface to the world of music defeats the entire point of the exercise. Neither of the founders is a professional musician, it’s missing the point of what it means to make music on so many levels.
