Hello, it's been a while since my last publication on DW but this is it today.
Around 2022 or maybe 2023 there was a thread about the fabulous AI demixer Moises app.. Back then, I tried to practice against tracks with the drum removed.. around the end of 2022 or 2023 and I didn't like it.. then I simply spent a year (or more) playing along with the complete real tracks until about 2 weeks ago, something happened, a meltdown.
It happened at the job. There, I listen to the music while working, listening to jazz all the time. And I said it to myself, I should remove that drummer from that tracks, in fact he annoys me on every tracks I practice, his playing is ruining the music, his cymbals sound like crap, he plays too hard, he increase the tempo of tunes on it's turn, I really hate that drummer.
I wrote a E-mail rant about the specific drummer to a colleague of mine, listing everything I dislike about him and this lead me to remember that I have Spleeter GUI installed my computer.
I decided to strip the drums out of all of my practicing tracks (85 total) using Spleeter GUI (The desktop app which is far inferior to online Moises but still cool and 100% annonymous) It took many millenniums of human evolution to create a tool capable of removing an instrument from a mix, for me it's the most incredible AI achievement so far. (I started using Copilot at the job too, to compare products to read about products for me and summerize, I love it)

So I've been practicing my jazz tunes without the drums for the past 2 days and it's changing totally everything in the way I play, especially for the solo parts, the trading parts between the drums and other instruments. My solos, what I do is so much more fluent and fun without the original drum track in my ears, it's incredible the feeling of freedom.
All that because of technology. I don't even use a Cellphone, but demixing The power to extract a pianist, from the other musicians from a 60 years old recording, who could have imagined THAT?
Have you started using it yet? The rise of the machines!
