LAWYER PETER SCHOUTEN AND DJ IAN STORM AUCTION RIGHTS TO WORLD’S FIRST SONG CREATED WITH AI FOR CHARITY
Schouten and Ian Storm join forces
Renowned criminal lawyer Peter Schouten and DJ Ian Storm have developed a song using Artificial Intelligence (AI) for the label Storm Music. The title of the song is ‘Between The Lines (Sometimes)’. The AI song is 100% the sound of today and could be a hit.
Team Thomas
The idea came about because Advocate Schouten is raising money for Team Thomas, an organisation that helps homeless people with rapid intervention when they find themselves on the streets. These people often cannot immediately go to a homeless shelter (e.g. because they are not allowed to stay there with their dog or cat or have received a sanction) and still need a safe and warm place to stay.
Ian Storm is currently the fastest-growing dance artist in the Netherlands. His songs were listened to by more than 1.7 million people worldwide last month. According to Peter Schouten, “the reason to work with him. The sound of the song is the sound of the moment and we are the first major artists to dare to use AI vocals. That’s why I think the proceeds from last year’s auction will be far exceeded”.
