⏳ The AI browser that does your music admin

This week, I'm diving into why the gig economy's hustle culture is killing creativity and how musicians cracked the code on sustainable income streams. Plus, I've got a game-changing AI browser that builds Spotify playlists & more instantly, a MIDI generation plugin that ends writer's block, and the latest music tech news that's reshaping the industry!

Stop Trading Time for Money: The Setlist Framework

Most musicians assume endless touring pays bills.

I experienced this grinding the club circuit.

The real problem is time-deafness.

Musicians stack performances without understanding sustainable income systems.

This creates exhausting patterns that kill creativity.

The Setlist Framework:

• Treat side jobs like songs in a setlist: Group similar tasks. Batch recording. Step away. Momentum replaces willpower.

• Digital assets behave like royalties: Build an online course, sample pack, or tutorial video once. Let them stream cash at 3 a.m.

• Automated tools are your backing band: Email sequences, subscription renewals, and calendar links work when you're offline.

• Say "no" more than "yes.": Empty measures give ideas space to breathe.

• Build fan communities and memberships: Grow newsletter subscribers you nurture to paid offers. Create recurring income sources.

All this makes touring less stressful.

Your music becomes the foundation.

Your systems become the business. I've built systems that earn while I sleep.

Now, let’s cut to the chase:

The AI browser that does your music admin work

Content creator Charlie Hills used Perplexity's Comet AI browser to build a Spotify playlist instantly.

He typed: "Create a spotify playlist for me that has a mix of swimming paul, fred again, and disco lines. Then play it."

Comet built the playlist and started playback automatically.

This goes beyond music curation. Comet handles tasks across websites without switching between platforms. You describe what you want done. The AI does it.

Here's what this means for musicians:

• Upload tracks to DistroKid with metadata

• Register songs with ASCAP and BMI

• Submit to playlist curators on SubmitHub

• Create YouTube uploads with SEO tags

• Build EPKs with press photos and bios

• Set up Facebook ad campaigns

• Plan tour routes and book venues

You give one prompt. Comet completes the entire workflow across multiple sites.

Old approach: Learn each platform's interface. Navigate dozens of forms. Copy data between systems. Spend hours on administrative work.

New approach: Write what you need. AI executes everything.

I would use this for road trip playlists when I need music fast, not the 2-3 hours manual creation takes. The same logic applies to music business tasks.

Comet is in beta. Available through Perplexity's $200 annual plan. You join the waitlist at perplexity.ai/download-comet.

Early access to tools like this creates competitive advantages.

Your competition still fills out forms manually.

You automate everything through conversation.

Poor MIDI Creation is the Silent Creativity Killer

Ever noticed how talented producers spend hours crafting basic chord progressions, the right melodies, drum patterns etc. while beginners with smart tools finish tracks faster?

You cannot generate fresh ideas while staring at empty piano rolls.

Something's gotta give.

That's why Staccato's AI INSTRUMENT plugin transforms this process completely.

It works directly in your DAW (Ableton, Logic Pro, Reaper, FL Studio, Pro Tools, Cubase) and generates unique MIDI that always complement your existing tracks.

Type a phrase like “Create a sad piano melody in B minor” or a longer prompt like “Make a dark cinematic string section building tension, inspired by film composers like Hans Zimmer or Trent Reznor”

The AI Instrument will create multiple generations for you to choose from

Key Features:

• Create: Turn text prompts into custom MIDI stems, melodies, and progressions

• Modify: Request specific changes to any MIDI file with simple text commands

• Extend: Continue any MIDI section while maintaining the original style

• Unlimited Freedom: All generated MIDI is royalty-free and commercially usable

This plugin saves hours of production time while expanding your musical vocabulary.

Create in unfamiliar genres, develop complex arrangements faster, and break through creative blocks.

WRAP UP

We’re at the end!

“Choose wisely.” Spoken by the Grail Knight during the final trial in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
