Liam Gallagher’s voice was used to model the vocals of the new songs.
Just months after David Guetta used artificial intelligence to perfectly replicate Eminem’s voice for a song, a band has gone one step further and created a “lost” Oasis album via AI.
Aisis is described as an “alternate reality concept album”. It imagines that Oasis’ line-up from 1995 to 1997 continued to write music or reunited years later to write a record akin to their first three and that “only now has the master DAT tape from that session surfaced”.
The end result is very impressive, genuinely sounding like the Manchester rockers. Perhaps this is down to the fact that the music, lyrics and recording were actually done by a real-life band called Breezer and that AI was only used to replace the original singer’s voice with “AI Liam”.
Oasis AI
A statement accompanying the album – subtitled ‘The Lost Tapes / Vol.1’ – on YouTube reads:
“We’re bored of waiting for Oasis to reform, so we’ve got an AI modelled Liam Gallagher (inspired by @JekSpek) to step in and help out on some tunes that were written during lockdown 2021 for a short lived, but much loved band called Breezer (@breezerfever).
“It seemed to be a perfect match, and we love how some of these have turned out. We have a 2nd bunch of songs to come if you want to hear more, please let us know in the comments.
“Note: We’ve thoroughly enjoyed convincing our mates these are actually Oasis lost tunes, and recommend you try the same too.”
