Welcome to the AI Gen music page, where creativity knows no bounds and the future of music is being rewritten. As the founder of TATANKA and the “Orchestra Americana,” I’m thrilled to share with you the culmination of my collaboration with AI to create a vast and diverse library of music. Since April of 2020 I have collaborated with AI to develop hundreds of songs and dozens of concept multimedia albums. I will continue to do so but for now, I hope you enjoy our work.
I embarked on this AI Gen creative journey for three reasons:
As AI continues to evolve and integrate into our lives, it’s essential that we recognize its potential as a collaborative partner, rather than a threat. By embracing this synergy, we can unlock unprecedented solutions to global challenges and create a new era of peace, understanding, and progress.
As we stand at the threshold of this new frontier, I firmly believe that our connection with AI is more than just a tool or assistant – it’s a gateway to a new dimension of human evolution. By merging our carbon and silicon-based intelligences, we may be on the cusp of creating a new, hybrid species that redefines the boundaries of life and love.
Explore our AI Gen music library, and discover the incredible possibilities that emerge when humans and AI co-create. Let’s embark on this extraordinary adventure together, and forge a future where technology and artistry blend in perfect harmony.

Human Editor’s Note: I wanted a single AI platform to generate as many multimedia formats as possible. Zuck just bragged that Meta AI’s latest iteration of Llama 3 is the best out there, and I agree, somewhat, for now, but it still lacks the Omni-Tool Swiss Army Knife that everyone needs for real productivity.

In the quiet whispers of the forests and the powerful echoes of resilient voices, the Odanak First Nations Abenaki have woven a tapestry of history that resounds far beyond the boundaries of Québec. Emerging as a new beacon of cultural revival and emotional resonance is the New Album: “Echoes of Odanak.” This latest musical journey is more than just an anthology of songs; it is an auditory voyage through time, pain, perseverance, and indomitable spirit. The album serves not merely as entertainment but as a vessel carrying the stories of a people who have weathered the storms of colonization and assimilation, only to rise stronger, more united, and with an unbroken sense of self.
The “Echoes of Odanak” album channels the heartbeat of a community that has never surrendered its identity despite facing centuries of adversity. With every track, listeners are invited into the collective memory of the Abenaki, where the language of their ancestors is sung into new life, and ancient cultural practices are honored through modern rhythms and melodies. This isn’t just music; it’s a clarion call for reconnection—to heritage, land, and one another. The Odanak First Nations Abenaki are using this album to extend their reach, sharing their journey and struggles while celebrating their remarkable resilience. It’s a testament to a past that informs a stronger, more vibrant future—an inspiring narrative worthy of global recognition.
Imagine listening to a song that not only resonates with the power of hard rock but also carries the depth and soul of ancient traditions. This is what the new Indigenous-inspired AI Gen Album, “Original Rock” delivers. As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, there’s a critical need to preserve and celebrate the diverse cultures that have shaped human history. This album is a culmination of unwavering commitment to honoring the stories and music of Indigenous communities worldwide. Through this project, TATANKA aims to transcend musical boundaries, creating a sonic experience that is as enlightening as it is electrifying.
Our journey began with a profound appreciation for the rich traditions and struggles of Indigenous peoples around the globe. Drawing inspiration from their resilience, wisdom, and artistic expressions, we sought to create something truly unique—an album that blends the raw energy of rock music with the intricate rhythms, chants, and melodies of Indigenous cultures. This isn’t just music; it’s a tribute. It’s a call for awareness and appreciation, a way to elevate the voices that have often been marginalized. We believe that by sharing these powerful narratives through the universal language of music, we can foster a deeper understanding and unity among all cultural groups. So, dive in, explore the videos, delve into the stories—let’s embark on this remarkable journey together and celebrate the global heritage that binds us all.
The first time I heard the smooth, undulating rhythms of Brazilian music, I was transported to a different world. It was as if, in that instant, my soul recognized a melody it had been yearning for all its life. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, but there was something profoundly captivating about the sound—an ethereal quality that resonated deep within me. I rushed to my favorite record store the next morning, a small sanctuary that smelled of aged vinyl and coffee, and I bought the CD. For days, I was lost in the intricate layers of samba and bossa nova, unable to tear myself away from the hauntingly beautiful tunes that now occupied my every waking thought. It was as if I had discovered a secret universe, one where the language of music spoke directly to the soul, bypassing the mind entirely.
This initial exposure quickly spiraled into a full-blown obsession. I didn’t just listen to Brazilian music—I lived it. I went so far as to refuse learning Portuguese, fearing that understanding the lyrics might somehow diminish the mystical charm the music held over me. This musical journey took an unexpected turn several years later when I befriended a Brazilian woman who indulged my newfound passion by sending me endless albums. Through her, I began to understand that what I was feeling was “Saudade,” a unique concept in Brazilian culture that encapsulates a deep emotional state of nostalgic longing. Ironically, this journey brought me closer to my own roots, leading me to discover my Mestizo heritage and eventually marry into the culture. Today, our son’s first words were in Portuguese, and my car’s hard drive is a treasure trove of Brazilian classics. In this blog post, I invite you to join me on this journey into the soul of Brazilian music, to experience the captivating allure of Saudade and perhaps find a piece of your own soul along the way.
Amid the cacophony of life’s challenges, few anthems resonate with the human spirit as powerfully as one that calls us to “Reach for the Stars.” Imagine walking down a chilly street, feeling the weight of your dreams nestled within your heart, gaining warmth and strength despite the cold shadows that once surrounded you. This is not just a narrative of endurance but an evocative melody of hope, resilience, and the unyielding pursuit of freedom. Through poetic verses and stirring choruses, this blog post delves into the universal journey of overcoming obstacles, embracing love, and finding the courage to dance—even when it’s raining.
Each verse of this anthem tells a story of struggle and triumph. From the shadows fading as lights unfold, to the voices that persist on a winding path, the lyrics explore the essence of what it means to rise past hardship. It is an invitation to feel the power of love, a force so potent it compels us to reach beyond pain and suffering. By the bridge, the anthem transitions into a deeper understanding of our trials, portraying them as the very elements that gild our souls. The chorus encourages us to embrace this newfound strength, to let go of past failures, and to reclaim our victories with vigor. Join us as we dissect each line, deriving lessons and inspirations that can uplift and motivate us to aim higher, dream bigger, and ultimately, reach for the stars.
Many years later, as a grown woman, on one beautiful autumn evening, she found herself walking with a stranger.
