home music studio – Integrating the Spirals

I popped up out of my writing hole for a few minutes the other day to read this article about Xania Monet the other day because the subject hit close to home for us as songwriters who used to rely heavily on having our original songs produced in Nashville, TN. Here’s the article (and embedded video interview) that I recommend you watch, especially if you’re an ‘AI hater’:

Creator of AI artist says there’s “a real person behind Xania” amid controversy: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-the-woman-behind-chart-topping-ai-artist-xania-monet-i-look-at-her-as-a-real-person/

Xania Monet is an AI songstress co-created by Telisha “Nikki” Jones and Suno AI. And we use Suno AI (my husband uses the paid version, and I use the free version), to create songs we wouldn’t otherwise be able to produce, physically or financially. In our opinion, the music studios have priced themselves out of existence!

Yes, my husband has spent over $100,000 in the last twenty years, no exaggeration, to have his 400+ original songs demoed in Nashville, TN. And I’m not complaining. We have an astounding collection of REAL songs thanks to those studio singers and musicians. But since my husband had a stroke in October 2022, and since I retired in December 2023, he cannot play guitar and bass like he used to and we simply cannot afford to send songs to the top music studios anymore.

Before we learned of Suno AI we sent some songs to musician friends who did the best they could to demo our songs–in their home studios and on their timetable (which tended to be a bit too slow for us). Some of those songs turned out good, but they weren’t of anything like the quality we had been used to receiving back from our favorite Nashville music studio. And I won’t even get started on how much we were paying top talent singers who kept raising their prices to sing each song! Ugh.

So, go figure. We spread as much wealth around as we could for as long as we could. Now, we just don’t have it.

Enter Suno AI. People can hate Artificial Intelligence all they want. I used to as well! After all, I’d had 35 years in Information Technology as a Business Analyst and Technical Writer so why would I want to use more tech when it came down to our soul passion of songwriting and producing? I sing and feel it in my soul when I sing, and when other incredible talents, like Adam Cunningham hit deep. I get it. We love Adele too! We want to be moved by incredible singers. But there’s a place for AI. And I do NOT understand why people are fighting it.

Here’s the thing. When one has no other choice and the choice (as it turns out) is this good, sometimes you just gotta give it a go!

My husband embraced Suno AI and has been churning out several songs a day using it since February 2025. It’s given him a certain vitality back and zest for living too! And that’s priceless to me.

I used my Integrating the Spirals process to ease me over my “hating AI” bumps and began using the free version of Suno AI to get some of my poems set to music (and I’ve used some on my YouTube channel to help share information about my Integrating philosophy too).

I can’t say we’re making any money yet from our AI generated songs, like Telisha “Nikki” Jones is with Xania Monet, but the process has been instantly gratifying and that’s not too shabby!

To get some idea of the kinds of music my husband creates, check out his YouTube channel and remember anything before Feb. 2025 was produced by high dollar Nashville studios, and anything more recent (even his redo’s) were produced by AI. Thanks!

To wrap this up, here’s one of the comments I posted on Xania Monet’s YouTube videos:

Integrating the Spirals

I’m encouraging those “over 60” to open to lifelong learning (observe and gently question their pre-conceived beliefs, aka ‘Programming’), become more aware of their thoughts and emotions, consistently move their bodies (too many are stuck in their heads and physically unhealthy), become strong, and resilient in spirit, soul, mind, body. And to question EVERYTHING!

Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. All while doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling thought ride to better health, through doing more with ease, to help us sustain the JOY in our lives! (With lots of Gratitude throughout.)

It’s October 24th, 2024; We’ve got a new original song for you today! Can you believe it? Richard wrote this song a few months ago, and I thought I had written a blog article about it, but I can’t find it. So, here it is:

This is the two-hundred-ninety-sixth new music post for 2024, as I consistently present fresh new songs you’ve never heard before. A new-to-you song each day this year!

We’d love to thank Nashville, TN songwriter/performing artist/author/actor, Mason Douglas, for crafting this superb radio-ready song for us. I was thrilled he could do this for Richard, and I love his voice! He must also have a sweet home music studio to produce such a fab sound on this song. Now, we need a publicist! We’re also open for a producer or sound engineer to place this song in a TV show or film. Tell it to me! Ha!

Richard and I play at the intersection of Energy, Spirituality, Health, and Music, to let FREEDOM ring for ALL! (My new motto, mantra, or tag-line.)

As for these videos

Richard has decided to redo some of the song videos I had made, sooo I’ve had to update them on the previous blog articles. I still have one or two more to update, but I wanted to let you know. My WordPress followers will automatically get the notifications for these updates, but for the newbies, when you change a video on YouTube, it changes the URL link. This leads to a series of cascading events, and means you have to go back to your WordPress blog articles and make the update, removing the old YouTube embedded link and adding the new one. Whew! Not a difficult task, but sometimes, the previous posts are hard to find. (I spent 20 minutes or more looking for A Man because I hadn’t titled the post with the name of the song! (My bad. And that’s fixed now too.)

Learning ALL the time

Gray Summers and I have chatted about this. I often feel like I take two steps back for every step forward I take on things. And I was a Technical Writer/Business Analyst for the better part of the last 35 years! I’m a techie, yet tech stuff can still get one over on me. Why? Because EVERY application is different! Ha! Sometimes I’m thrilled to engage a new challenge and sometimes I’m not! It probably depends on my mood or how much other stuff I have going on. And that’s why I didn’t start a huge project like this (blogging a new original song for you every day), until I retired! Yep.

I’m going to rest today

Yes, I review about 100 memes a day and I only share the ones with you that bubble up to the top for me. The memes I look at each day either thrill me or trigger me. And yes, I share the ‘warts and all’ with you, because I’m a REAL person. Truth, Freedom/Health Freedom, and Honesty/Transparency are foundational for me. But so is Peace. They are the pillars I rest on.

I wasn’t going to bring this up, but I felt I had to unsubscribe from someone I liked this morning. Why? Several reasons, but the two largest reasons were: a) when I had asked him to share anything about our music, mention us, or reblog any of my posts, he declined. This happened a few months ago and I continued to Like and comment on his posts, b) he went too far (IMHO) in his own words about Elon Musk, President Trump, and Mark Zuckerberg. Not that I’m a huge fan of these men, but his message was so disparaging. It was just the last straw for me. I’m all for anyone speaking their truth, but I don’t need to see it/read it/hear it. If I ever do that to you, please unsubscribe. I am not here to contribute to anyone feeling bad. Ruffle feathers, challenge, yes. But if over a few days, weeks, or months, no. Just leave. No hard feelings. And I don’t give a flip about the algorithm. I’m just done. I am who I am. I am where I am. I will continue learning, yes. But for now, I am tired. I am going to rest.

You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.” –T.H. White, The Once and Future King, Love and Light, Michelle Price via Facebook

Brain basics–Super Patch

Since my mother, grandmother, and aunt all died with Alzheimer’s disease, I have been interested in the study of the brain, physical sensations and sensory issues, along with consciousness. I could write a book just on what I’ve learned, but for now, I think experience is the best teacher–and you really must experience these Super Patches for yourself.

So far, in the three or four months I’ve been wearing these, I’ve experienced better digestion and fat-burning, healing of a frozen shoulder (that had been bothering me for over two years), a release and total resolution of knee joint stiffness (that I had been using magnesium on every day for almost a year, and had provided relief but not resolved), relief from sciatica back pain that I’d gotten during/shortly after our move from Florida to New Hampshire last May. I’ve still got some issues I’m working on (and researching), but simply to get the results I’ve had so far is a huge WIN for me!

Everything happens for a reason

Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Even if we have to disconnect from some people, for a time.

Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. Let’s soar in ’24! And let’s (are you ready for this?) THRIVE in ’25!

Yours in expanding, awe-inspiring wonderment, spiraling consciousness,
