Looking forward to presenting our lyrics transcription benchmark at #ISMIR2024 in San Francisco! Our paper grew from last year's LBD to a full paper with more results, which has now been accepted, so stay tuned! audioshake.github.io/jam-alt/

Missed @AudioShakeAI’s demo at @Disney Accelerator? Our CEO @themoko sat down with @ncannon to chat about AudioShake’s work with segments like @ESPN, @ABC Owned Television Stations, and @DisneyMusic Group and how it could help shape the future of media and technology.

We released the Song Describer Dataset of ~1.1K crowd-sourced music captions for 706 open-access audio tracks from MTG-Jamendo—work led by @Ilaria__Manco and Benno Weck, with @philtgun, @MinzWon, and colleagues. Check our paper for the ML for Audio workshop at #NeurIPS2023. 👇

Amazing night at @ISMIRConf - thanks to Uri, Romain, Genís, and André for playing with me. Also, "Fear of MATLAB" was the best thing I heard in years! 😭😭

ЗРОБИМО ЇМ БОЛЯЧЕ 🫡У нас є можливість допомогти одній дуже хорошій справі — завдати росіянам серйозного удару. Більшого, аніж у Пскові, коли було знищено 4 Іл-76 + боєприпаси. Ваші кошти прямо допомогли цьому відбутись. Для максимального результату зараз потрібна велика сума. Це 75 (!) мільйонів гривень. Більше, ніж ми будь-коли збирали. Та кожна копійка цього варта! Навіть якщо зберемо менше — результат буде. Але усе в наших руках🤫 Спочатку ви побачите саме результат. Потім і засоби ураження. Ворогу поки зарано знати про них, хай спершу відчує. Це один із найважливіших зборів, що були, і я дуже прошу вас усіх його підтримати. Є змога — донатом. І обов’язково поширенням. У цій справі навіть мала сума дозволить нам долучитись до історичних подій.

I'm sick of pro-Russians saying that 'Crimea is intrinsically Russian'. (Thread 1/) So let's take a look at just how 'Russian' Crimea is... and how it came to be that way. --- Crimea's original population was NOT Russian, of course. The idea that Crimea's population was 'always Russian' is absolutely ridiculous - and is an absolute lie as well. Crimea's original population were Crimean Tatars - most of whom are now extinct. This is their story.

Hey @MrBeast, saw your "Every Country On Earth Fights For $250,000" video. There’s a fragment on a map showing Crimea being a part of russia. Just in case you or your production crew didn’t know — Crimea is a part of Ukraine, which was illegally and forcefully occupied by russians and their military in 2014. Moreover, you’ve invited a russian onto your show to represent russia, whereas global sports officials at least make them take part under a neutral flag. The country that shells Ukrainian cities and kills Ukrainians should not be represented and invited in any show or sports while they are murdering people in another country. If that’s not enough — literally today russia has hit the center of the Ukrainian city Chernihiv with a ballistic missile, killing 7, including a child, and injuring 129 people. Ukrainians are in full-scale war with russia and have been fighting with the aggressor for their rights, freedom and lives. Ukrainians remember your help with donations and humanitarian aid. Please, consider removing that map from your video or doing anything about it to show that you do not support terrorism and war.

Today we're sharing details on AudioCraft, a new family of generative AI models built for generating high-quality, realistic audio & music from text. AudioCraft is a single code base that works for music, sound, compression & generation — all in the same place. More details ⬇️

Looks like another great work, definitely check it out!

UPDATE: We extended the deadline for MuRS Workshop until August 6th. A first submission including the title and authors of the paper must be created before August 3rd: sites.google.com/view/murs/call…
