About:

In 2024, Jon Hadley updated publishing standards for Abrasive Monologues to require disclosure of AI elements when they are present in order to better identify generative AI use and non-human elements in the interest of transparency.

This disclosure will be added to articles over time. The color of the disclosure indicates the level of AI usage in the music specifically. The usage in artwork is generally disclosed, but not required.

Red – The song is over 50% generative or completely assembled from generative AI elements.

Green – No AI presence in the music.

Yellow – AI elements are used alongside human performance and production process.

Inspiration

I’m a fairly dark and heavy musical persona, I’ve always been that way. I literally don’t know how to write for happy and when I try it feels inauthentic. I’m part of the Indie Boom Shockwave community, and apparently, that has been noticed.

In music, like many artists, I’m a larger than life version of myself. I’m not dark and heavy all the time. I do have my reasons for being that way, though I’ll not be going into them in depth. There was an interaction on X with a character persona from the Indie Boom Show that said that I never smile, which is not true in my personal life, but has taken off as a bit of a joke musically. It was funny, but it got me thinking, which is sometimes dangerous.

I’ve written a lot of music through the years, with various topics of discussion being used as inspiration behind those projects, and occasionally they touch on my story briefly when it collides with the main theme of the project, but I’ve never really written anything about… me. Color is being written to fill that gap. It’s about me and my story, no themes, no discussions. I’m a dominant personality and I’ve been told several times that people find me intimidating. I understand why they feel that way. I named my label Abrasive Monologues. I’m more than that, though.

But you don’t deserve those pieces of me.
