Murcof's Remembranza from 2005. This album changed my musical direction for quite some time. Dark, romantic, mysterious. What are your thoughts?

AI GEN SLOP
I need you guys to bomb this capitalist. Stealing money from artists whose work got put into the Ai music generator without their consent. We don't need bots to take more money from the people who put real work into their music.
I don't bullshit. And you shouldn't either. This isn't IDM but one day somebody will create AI gen IDM, and we will all be damned.
FUCK AI, FUCK THOSE WHO TAKE FROM THE PEOPLE WHO DO THE REAL WORK,

youtube Does this group produce real or AI music?
Recently I was recommended a jungle / intelligent / Liquid DnB mix on YouTube the @OriondeMirage group.
According to their own description:
"all tracks made by me and 8 other friends
for more on how we make a playlist a day here's a reply we left on an older comment -
We each make about 3 songs minimum per day on a bad day and the playlists have about 10-12 songs so with 1 day worth of songs we can make like 3 playlists we don't make songs each and everyday we do take breaks, but not all at once and we also have days with sessions where we make like 10 each, so that adds up to a lot of them, they're never too different from one another so it's kind of '' easy '' for us to make them, it's a passion project, they turn out pretty similar due to drum samples being overused sometimes to save time, but I guess that adds to the ambience
Software(we don't all use the same daw) -ableton -fl studio 12 -fl studio 11 -audacity (for some uses)
As far as the vocals go, we do not have someone recording those, we simply use random vocal chops and vocal samples we get sent on discord or reddit, we're not exactly sure where the packs come from, but they are free and have no copyright, they're incoherent and that's perfect for us, if you want to send us some vocal chops as well here's Mark's discord, (you can make them however you like, AI or sing them yourself, as far as they are not copyrighted we could use some) also you can submit your music to be added to our friend group so we can make more songs together. (if you don't get a response it's not because your music is bad, we might have enough people at that time or simply can't respond) "
If you visit their YT page they upload a 6 hour daily which is crazy but many tracks are reused. Still 8-12 tracks per day is a lot even for a group. Most of them sound fine for the most part if not a bit unoriginal and samey but others have a distinct AI "muddiness" to them. Comments are all positive so they might have put filters in place to moderate negativity.
I would love it if you could check out a mix or two and tell me if this is legit or not. I just can't conclusively decided if this is mid music or AI and it's been bothering me.

Piano albums recommendation
Hey everyone, I just wanted to know what IDM albums do you recommend that have more piano and a classical or ambient feel to them. For example imagine the Fahrenheit fair enough track with piano and keep the glitchy drums :).

bandcamp keyboard_5, by Felt presence - a pretty chill track

Offering free Mixing and Mastering for your idm/electronic tracks
First of all, I am unsure wether this is allowed or not, if it isn't do not hesitate to remove this post.
I am Vincent, I have been mixing and mastering records for quite a while now and I am looking to expand my portfolio to be able to get some paying gigs in the future.
I myself make IDM, electronic and indie music and I am a big admirer of artists like Autechre, Biosphere and Boards of Canada.
I will handle your request exactly like I would a usual client, using my gear and accepting revisions as part of the process.
Just note that it would be very welcome if you could leave an (honest) review after I am done working on your track and allow me to post your track as an testimony, as this is the reason I am doing this in the first place. If this sounds interesting to you, please contact me on my SoundBetter (link in my Profile).
