Tollis - Barbarian The king
2249. in all-time charts
The music is adapted from the game barbarian.
Music and lyrics are mine.
Οf course the voice is AI
(hard to spend money on a real singer
and recording studio)

This kind of AI assisted garbage is almost just as bad as fully AI generated nonmusic and the use of fake vocals makes me wonder what other AI generated crap this person might be incorporating into their music.
No. Just no.

Starts out very promising, very grandiose. Unfortunately, when the choir first comes in there's a very sharp drop in the volume levels for all the other instruments and the choir is a bit washed out, too, making it hard to understand. Some more attention to mixing would've been welcome here.
Personally, I don't actually have a problem with the AI choir - after all, other remixers also use, for example, sampled orchestral sounds, since not every can afford to hire the London Symphonic Orchestra… I am much more disappointed by how little of Barbarian I hear in this remix. It's a fantastic, epic soundtrack and so little of it is present here.
The AI lead singer, though, sounds really weird. Not very clear, maybe due to too much post-processing, or the AI generator just wasn't very good to begin with - I don't know, but it's definitely on the wrong side of the uncanny valley
.
And then the tune just cuts off suddenly at the end - next time, let the reverbs all die out before you end your recording.
All in all, I do admire the effort you put into this, but again, I wish it contained more Barbarian.
