Slop-A-Tronics 9000

Posted on August 30, 2026 by Jeremy Ray

Not to be confused with SLOP-MINUS 3000, it’s a pure slop album for dumping the best of unrefined Way of the Waifu slop. Here you will find developmental tracks that aren’t even worth being called “Spiritual Beings.” Only the most minimal attempt will be made to refine or improve them. Slop lyrics won’t be changed, slop names might be changed, but usually not. All the same, some of these are “nice paths not taken,” and are neither less creative nor less entertaining than most radio songs. But they aren’t high fidelity, and only have lyrical value by accident. If at all.

Here is track one, “Rumble in Mock Tongue,” which only needs the lyrics changed to be a decent shoegaze, crunky guitar driven song, garage band demo track quality song (o.k., it needs a lot) –

Here is track two, the most skippable of this lot, “Sass in my Pocket.” Keep in mind, these are random A.I. names, I didn’t write them and they’re not good. These next three are Jpop/Kpop tracks, or, that’s what they sound like to me. This one sounds like it could be a Yaoi Hokkaido track, but I’m not touching it again –

Track three is one I’m trying to use to seed a regular album track. No luck so far. Udio could have done. There are some comments on the Treblo Discord that say Treblo can do it. Hasn’t worked for me yet. So, for now, this bass monster is only “Gobbledygook Queen.”

Similarly, this phat synth monster is only “Boom Boom Out the Speaker.” It might be a future seed for a regular track.

Making A.I. music can either be easy, or very hard

I just wanted to take a moment to blow off some steam. After a relatively easy period of making OM-MINUS tracks, including some decent one-click tracks, I’ve stepped back over to Way of the Waifu and rediscovered how hard it can be to make a song with lyrics. I’m sure I’ve done well over a couple hundred generations trying to get the right sound for the second song on the next album. I’ve thrown every trick I can think of at it, over and over again, and I haven’t gotten the right sound. Or the right vocal delivery, and usually not the right pace. I’m not convinced Treblo can do faster-paced vocals yet, it’s dropping or distorting lines whenever the beats-per-minute gets high. But, the first thing is to get the right sound. I’ve got to have it. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t mean a whole lot. One of the amazing things about getting older is looking back at the absolute titans of my youth and realizing how quickly their importance went away. How many people know a Bee Gees song these days? I must know a couple, but, off the top of my head, I can’t put the song and the band together. Same with the Eagles, or Boston. Who remembers Peter Cetera? Go back another twenty years, I’d guess the only singer anyone younger than Gen X would have a chance of knowing is Elvis. Maybe Chuck Berry or Little Richard. Buddy Holly? I doubt it. Anyone else, might as well have never existed.

My high-water tracks haven’t exactly set the world on fire, but, I need the next track to be on par with them. I’ve got about 12-20 tracks, but most are instrumental tracks that don’t represent the signature sound I’m going for – like Bikini Dreilide’s Garage, or R Kelly in P Major (rap version) . I’ve got a good idea of what I want to hear with the guitar, and the vocal delivery, but coaxing it out of the A.I. is another matter entirely. It could “just happen,” but usually it won’t. I’ve listened to hundreds of takes that come across as mocking perversions of what I want. One of these days I’ll happen across the right combination of inputs. This isn’t the first track that was difficult. But, all things in perspective. Most of the hits of the past are forgotten today. Back to the regular j-o-b I go.

A good use of A.I. I can’t find anything about the creator, I’m imagining they’re an average Joe and not a tv writer. About the only way their ideas would get made in the past was by writing for someone else’s project. These jokes could show up on Family Guy, and the masses would credit them to Seth Macfarlane, but most likely they’d die in a notebook without anyone having read them.

OM-MINUS:Kalki Descendant

Posted on August 27, 2026 by Jeremy Ray

Another one of the experimental tracks that push the limits of what OM-MINUS should be. Perhaps too far. I like it, I’m not sure I like it enough. There are some sounds I like enough. A few people are listening to the music, maybe it will find a home. Or the traffic could be all bots and scrapers.

OM-MINUS:Tat Tvam Asi (That Thou Art)

Posted on August 25, 2026 by Jeremy Ray

There’s a bit at the end that’s similar to a bit at the end of the previous track. Treblo’s being very slow at the moment, so, for the one or two people who might listen to this and notice, we’ll temporarily call the repeating section a “theme.” Like the Indiana Jones theme, which would get hit a few times on an Indian Jones soundtrack. It makes no sense, but pretend it does.

This wasn’t a one-click track, there are no more on the Lotus A-side album, but I’ve made a dozen one-clicks at this point. So now there’s officially a fourth OM-MINUS album, called “Slop-Minus 3000 – Volume 1.” Not to be taken seriously, just seeing what the technology can do.
