A songwriter finished a book and its anthem-like songs during AI Mastery Quest
They wrote 10 songs in Suno, chose 5 for their book, and finished and published it, even after two drive crashes days apart.
This songwriter came into AI Mastery Quest with a book in progress and a head full of music. They left with the book completed and published, five original songs to go with it, and one anthem they mastered for classmates who doubt themselves. It is a story of finishing something real while learning something new.
Words Live: Erase the Codes
Before
They were writing a book called Words Live: Erase the Codes and planned songs to go with it, one of them anthem-like. Building music meant long hours in their DAW programs, and they often felt overwhelmed by how much music was in their head. Bringing songs to life also meant finding artists and working around other people's recording schedules.
“I had a plan to write songs for a book I was writing during AI Mastery Quest-- "Words Live--Erase the Codes--now completed and published.”
In their own words
The turning point
During AI Mastery Quest they began composing lyrics and music in Suno. They finished 10 songs, picked 5 for the book, and found that one stood out as the anthem they had imagined, so they went all out to master it. They kept going through a hard stretch, including their hard drive and external drive crashing days apart.
“Finishing the song also helped me feel emowered to know I have another option when overwhelmed with so much music in my head, that I do not have to spend so many hours constructing primarily in my DAW programs.”
In their own words
After
The book is now completed and published, with five original songs made for it. They wrote the anthem to inspire classmates who struggle with second-guessing, self-worth or staying motivated while learning something new. Their next step is a custom webpage, using what Vishen taught in AI Acceleration, so their songs can be shared behind a code.
What it lets people do
The songs give readers of the book music that carries its message, and the anthem speaks to anyone wrestling with self-worth or motivation while learning. For the songwriter, the process opens a faster path from the music in their head to a finished track.
What they learned
They learned they have another option when overwhelmed, and no longer need to spend so many hours building every track by hand. They also gained a new way to picture a lead vocalist for their songs, and a working rhythm they plan to carry into their next Mindvalley Quest.
“The song also dobuled with keeping me going- first thing in the day.”
In their own words
Words Live: Erase the Codes was built during AI Mastery.
