The revived (AI) versions have this...thin and hollow sound to it. It is difficult to explain, most AI-generated songs have this when they're modelling acoustic drums, stringed instruments, etc.

FWIW, I'm (now a hobby) musician and have done studio work. Even the latest and best models have this unmistakable sound.

Agreed. As someone who had never dove much into AI, it was a great learning process to experience first hand its limitations and tendencies.

Totally agree. I guess that's what comes with the AI/robot stuff. Hopefully we'll be able to create an in-person album again, but with a little higher production quality than our dorm room versions.
