TLDR - We need you... be yourself, it's the only job someone else can't do.

Thank you Chris for your insights, encouragement and candor. Like you, I'm still at it as I approach 70 (this year)... I love this Oscar Wilde quote " Be yourself, everyone else is already taken...". I really enjoy your channel. Best regards, Jim
thank you for sharing. "being yourself" is very important, particularly so in a world with ai (although the "intelligence" part is a total misconception). regarding listening to music it is also essential to be or become yourself. "consuming" or "producing" music will possibly push the use of ai whereas creating and listening to music will possibly do less so.
This was a lovely insight. The fact
that you’ve had to struggle to master music is precisely why you’re such an amazing teacher with phenomenal insight and depth. And I’ve no doubt your own music has the stamp of your soul. Thank you for everything you do. 😊
as a 64 yr old library composer (in my spare time) one library i have worked for is releasing fewer albums each year. Wether this is in part due to A.I or an over saturated market who knows? This has resulted in significantly less royalties for me. Interesting times ahead for composers, but I agree we have to have our own unique human voice.
Wisdom, honesty, and great advice. Being yourself, finding your own voice, that’s all there is. Thanks Chris. 🙏🏼✊🏼
You got it!
Wonderful to share this, thank you. Knowing your story explains why you are such a good teacher.
Beautifully said, i appreciate your sharing of your story and great advice! "Find yourself, find your path and be the best you can be at that". Cheers!
And I agree. The noise to creativity ratio in the internet in general, and in yt in particular, has gone wild. However, in my case, after a short curiosity, it has led me to automatically reject all the ai generated crap and look only for original people. Thanks for uploading this. We will prevail!
Thank you again. You are a great teacher. Regards from Buenos Aires
Thanks Chris. This has really meant a lot to me. Thank you.
You're very welcome
I was a musician from a very early age. It was all I wanted to do until my late teens when the usual pressures of money/work/future prospects led me eventually too a career in Information Technology. I always maintained an interest in music, especially folk, American serialism and minimalism(!) together with electronic music more generally and home recording. Back then it was all tapes and four tracks and scissors! But now that I'm mostly retired, I'm doing exactly what you have described. I'm going back to what I love and have been playing and recording music as before but now with much better technology! I do feel like I missed out on not pursuing music more than I did, but on the other hand there are always choices, choices, choices.
Keep up the good work. You've inspired me and doubtless many others to be more musical - more creative - in our lives. Your talent and your grace do shine.
I’m 63 years old Love your channel. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Awesome! Thank you!
It was great to hear your story. You continue to inspire me to be simply be me, in my music and in my outlook to life.
I've followed other youtube creators who have thrown in the towel due to the pressure of producing weekly videos. Plesae don't feel duty bound to upload regular episodes of Implied Music,
do what you feel you need to do, We all appreciate your approach to making music and your gentle words of advice. Bernie (68)
This was very inspiring. Thank you for sharing yout story with us!
Yay. More personal composition from you 🎉!
4:08 Who knew Chris was a redhead. ;-)
With science anything is possible
You have that piercing Wisdom, remarkedly measured in patience and kindness.
What you offer is less contagious and definitely more inviting.
Like an old Rock Star who is also a bit Mr.Rogers and a bit Mr. Ross.
We will let you decide the Rock Star Element.
Lol
Appreciate you Chris😊
Chris. Some thoughts. As you spoke here, there were times when there was grief deeply inside you. I believe you are needing to find your true deeper self, your soul. You are very giving, kind, warm, willing to please others .. possibly too willing to please others. I believe you need to journey much more deeply within. To do so is not selfish, it is necessary, vital, for spiritual health. Your very soul is the deepest part of you, it is deeper and distinctly different to your heart, it is beyond your intellect. I believe there is a need in you for soul intimacy .. you with your own soul. All the best.
AI metal? AI punk? AI Monk?
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Chris, for your interesting history, and your thoughts on compromise and AI. I'm open-eyed enough to know that you probably are compromising with this RUclips channel. I think other content creators have this dliema too (e.g. over recent years, Venus Theory has mused a lot on the subject of ''what's it all about, and why am I doing it?''). I'm sure I speak for most here that we are very glad of your videos, keep creating, but keep being you!
I'm in the fortunate position of not having to compromise musically - I'm a hobbyist, and proud owner of three albums released to all platforms. But the main consumer of my music is me! (quite literally - most of my revenue comes from Tidal, which is me playing my own stuff!) It sounds a bit pompous, but I've written what I wanted to write and listen to, and that suits me fine. The key here is that I don't have to make a living out of it, and that's quite liberating.
Regarding AI, my thoughts are that AI will replace musical content creators (skits, commercials etc), but will never replace musical artists. Art is subjective, art involves mistakes, changes of direction that are initially poorly-received. Kate Bush slipped a piano note on a track on her ''50 Words for Snow'' album - it made it onto the album. During the recording of Talk Talk's ''Laughing Stock" LP, someone walked into the studio and tripped over a guitar wired up to amps etc. The resulting dissonance forms a one-note guitar solo on the track "After the Flood". And lastly, on one my tracks, I field recorded the sea on a winter day, and forgot to keep quiet - a resulting quiet nose snuffle has made its way onto a track 🙂. I can't imagine AI in its perfections achieving these things...
Thanks for this. Greetings from Beijing.
Welcome!
For me, it's taken a lifetime to get back to me. I have become unapologetic and that has been a great personal space. Nothing to prove. At 78- I'm workinng on a new project in visual music (because I not only write and paint- always have which explains becoming unapologetic). Funny- my occasional blog is "Front Porch".
For me, music has always been about human connection, understanding, identity. A.I. may end up providing some useful tools -- like David Byrne as the silent collaborator in the song "Strange Overtones". But the idea of an A.I. generated composition sounds empty and vapid to me. Thanks for the stories. You put yourself through college playing music? Respect.
Implied Music. Chris, this title, what is the story behind it ?
perhaps too far into the video i talk about rick beato's lament that AI will push us out... my position is that to resist that i'll strive to make music that's most particularly, perhaps peculiarly, my own.
@@ImpliedMusic Chris, I was meaning what is the story behind 'Implied Music', the title of your site ?
@@ImpliedMusic I am interested if you are interested to share it ...
