Show Notes
Peaches and Viktor dive headfirst into the uncanny valley in this Tuesday edition of The Noon Hour of Madness & Mayhem, where they explore the rise—and possibly world takeover—of AI-generated music, featuring the suspiciously popular Spotify band Velvet Sundown.
Peaches and Viktor react in real time to the band’s oddly viral hit Dust on the Wind, share stats that should make real musicians weep, and rant about the shocking speed at which AI artists are outperforming legendary human ones—even Bill Murray (the musician, not the ghostbuster).
This episode also features:
- Viktor’s full breakdown of how real music is made in his band The Reptilians
- Peaches nearly defecting to the AI side for streaming royalties
- A dramatic spike in Velvet Sundown's monthly listeners—while they’re live on-air
- Predictions on when AI will crack into Top 40, country, and even your local station's playlist
- A comparison of Palaye Royale, Sleep Theory, and Scott Stapp with these mysterious robo-rockers
- And yes—someone did sign Viktor up for 7-Eleven rewards mid-show.
By the end, the guys are torn between mocking and admitting that yeah… Velvet Sundown kinda slaps.
