About this listen

The AI music industry is moving faster than most artists can react. Platforms launch overnight. Terms change quietly. Laws lag behind reality. And everyone argues about whether this is "real" music — while the future gets built without them.

AI Music Revolution cuts through the noise.

Hosted by Josh Gilliland — 30-year Big Tech veteran, 5-star Submithub curator, 200+ track producer, and author of The AI Music Revolution — this weekly briefing is for creators who want to operate like professionals, not hobbyists.

What to expect:

Market Intel — The truth about Suno, Udio, Bandcamp, and the major moves shaping this space (without the PR spin)

The Lab — Prompt engineering, DAW mixing, mastering workflows, and professional release standards

Distribution & Marketing — How to pass the curator test, get playlisted, and actually monetize your catalog

The Philosophy — Authenticity, authorship, and the hard questions about creativity in the AI era

Legal Reality Checks — What you own, what you don't, and how to protect your work

This is not a hype show. This is not a "press a button and get famous" fantasy.
It's a tactical briefing for the AI music era.

Join the Revolution. New briefings every week.

    Quick housekeeping: the JG BeatsLab podcast is evolving. Starting now, each episode is the audio from our weekly YouTube videos. To kick things off, this episode combines our first three videos into one session — what I've learned from 200+ AI songs, the Lane 1/Lane 2 problem in AI music, and why nobody's coming to give you permission. Same content, same energy, new format. New episodes every week.

  • NAMM 2026: What the Music Industry Got Wrong About AI
    Jan 26 2026

    I just spent three days at NAMM listening to the music industry argue about AI music. The education sessions felt defensive, anxious, and filled with one-way monologues about why AI is bad for music.

    But they're fighting a caricature — and conflating two very different things.

    In this episode, I break down:
    → The "junk food for the brain" argument (and why it falls apart)
    → The two lanes: spam vs. human-authored, AI-assisted production
    → Why the 97% stat actually proves our point, not theirs
    → The legal reality around copyright and human authorship
    → What serious AI music creators should do from here

    "Being pro-AI music does not mean being anti-human music. This isn't binary."

    The gatekeepers are building walls. Smart creators are walking through the open doors.
