Sebastian Murgul is the co-founder and CEO of Klang.io, a music software company based in Germany that has developed a suite of tools including Transcription Studio, Piano2Notes, and MelodyScanner that use A.I. to transcribe audio recordings into PDF, MIDI, and MusicXML. We had a fantastic conversation about the underlying technology and swell as an honest conversation about what the future of the music industry might look like.

Andrew Carlins is the CEO and Co-Founder of Songscription, a company that uses AI models to automate music transcription from audio recordings. The company is still in the early stages, having launched only a few months ago at the time of this interview, but they’ve got big ideas about how to use technology to revolutionize music education.

Adrian Holovaty is the founder and CEO of Soundslice, a web-based application for learning music that combines audio, video, and music notation.

We recorded this conversation in July of 2025, a few weeks after Soundslice was in the news because Chat GPT was directing its users to Soundslice promising a feature that did not exist.

What makes the story even more insane is that in response Adrian decided to quickly develop and implement that feature, making Soundslice arguably the first company in history forced to add a feature to its product because of an AI hallucination.
