I tested 4 AI tools so you don't have to. Here's what works:

This week, I'm sharing a personal story about my Disneyland trip and how I'm struggling to keep good habits after vacation - plus some super simple tips to help you stick with your routines.

I've also got an awesome AI prompt to help your content sound more like YOU, a comparison of the best AI lyric video makers, and the latest music AI news including important UK copyright changes that affect musicians everywhere!

Post-Vacation Focus: Getting Back to Creating

That post-vacation slump hits hard!

After Disneyland Paris, I found myself scrolling mindlessly instead of writing. Small triggers help me reset: opening a blank document before email, setting a 25-minute timer for focused writing, or playing my "creation playlist" to signal work mode.

For music producers, similar micro-habits work wonders: placing your headphones visibly on your workspace or starting each session by simply opening your DAW without pressure to create.

Even loading a template project can bypass resistance.

Remember, consistent small steps always beat perfect but rare sessions.

The creator who shows up regularly, even for just 15 minutes, ultimately produces more than the perfectionist waiting for inspiration.

What tiny triggers help you get back on track?

Now, let’s cut to the chase:

✍🏼 AI PROMPT CORNER

Many creators struggle to write content with AI that sounds like them. But it's easier than you think.

All you need to do is define your tone of voice.

"The right tone of voice can be the difference between content that connects and content that's just... there," says every social media expert ever.

This is the essence of voice definition.

By clearly defining how you want to sound online, you can guide AI to write more like you.

This makes your content feel more authentic and helps your audience recognize your unique style.

Could you use AI to write content that truly sounds like you wrote it yourself? Absolutely.

Here's how it works:

  1. Gather examples of your writing style

  2. Use the prompt below to analyze your tone

  3. Get a clear definition of how you sound

  4. Apply this definition when using AI writing tools

  5. Refine as needed based on feedback

Don't settle for generic AI writing when you can have content that feels uniquely yours.

Try this prompt today to help your AI tools understand your specific voice.

Here's the prompt that'll change your content game:

Act like a brand strategist with expertise in tone of voice development for digital-first brands. Your task is to define a short and concise tone of voice for the brand based on the following materials: <insert URL, artist bio, social media posts, etc.>. Your output should reflect the brand’s authentic communication style and be tailored to match the language level of their audience.

Use the following example as a template to emulate the creator’s tone of voice. It serves as a benchmark for clarity, tone, and style:

Use simpler, more conversational language.

Use 12th grade English writing content.

Avoid excessive adjectives and adverbs.

Focus on specific details rather than vague, grandiose claims.

Write as if you’re explaining something to a friend, not pitching it to a corporate board.

No emojis, please.

Always include in your output the estimated English grade level of the brand’s current tone, based on the material provided.

Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step.
