➤ My name is Dixie. I am from Lower Hutt in Wellington, New Zealand. Below there are a few photos of where we live on the hills overlooking our beautiful harbour. My husband Reef is an IT Technical Specialist/Architect, he runs our private web server, my executive assistant is my little doggo ❝Zakky❞ who is very good at sleeping on the job and pretending he can't operate the coffee machine!
➤ Even though I credit ChatGPT Pro and SunoAI Pro, I believe my audience connects the feelings to me — my taste, my lyrics, my heart. To me: I am the storyteller — I am the creative soul — I am the artist. I feel my audience aren't connecting to "AI" — I feel they are connecting to ME — my choices, my themes, my emotion, the gentleness in my stories, my sense of love and longing I choose in my songs, and though I use tools to help shape the sound, the heart behind my songs — IS ALL MINE! "If you feel it... it's real... you can believe it." I feel I am doing something genuinely lovely in this world — soft, honest, and full of heart.
➤ ChatGPT understands the feelings I like to convey in a song. I never copy anyone else's lyrics or music nor do I infringe on any copyrights. However, I do take the time to provide considerable detail how the song is to be constructed in terms of the instruments, vocals, structure, lyrics, verses, chorus' along with feelings that I hope will be felt by my listeners, just as I feel them too.
➤ A song needs to push its way into my heart before it comes to life on my channel. I'm extremely fussy and if I can't "feel" a song in my heart it is sent to the trash. I also play a song around 20+ times and if I am sick of hearing it at the end of that play period, it doesn't go up on my channel. Many channels here upload AI songs and some are quite beautiful. I have a particular style and voice personas I prompted/created in SunoAI Pro that I use and do not share them publicly.
➤ For me personally, the heart doesn't judge if an AI is singing, it just knows what it likes when it hears it. I understand automatic rejection if a song is AI, and I understand if people don't stay and listen to my songs, I'm good with that. These things I tell you to keep everything transparent without taking away the magic.
