I've just released a six-track EP of songs about coding, with a couple of tracks dedicated to the Amstrad. It was created using the Udio artificial intelligence app, so it's an experiment in (and showcase for) computer creativity. You can hear it and find out more here:

Interesting (and scary) experiment. I gave your tracks a listen, but I could not go past "It won't take time", it sounded too generic, repetitive, not engaging. Maybe I'll have another go at the remaining tracks later .. :)
Thank you for listening. I think part of the experiment is seeing the range of performances it creates, and the acoustic song about debugging and final doo-wop song are interesting, so it's worth coming back and skipping the ones you don't like.
It Won't Take Time sounds like a song from the 80s celebrating the Amstrad, so that's a win for me, although I know a lot of people will find it dated. I'm still astonished at how good the results are, given that it was created by AI given just a few words of a text prompt. I'm not really comparing the software with a human creator, as much as I am in marvelling at how good it is for a computer, and wondering about where it could go next.
" Waiting for GOTO (https://soundcloud.com/seancouk/waiting-for-goto) " is - amazing. Could be an instrumental from one of my favourite brit synth pop bands - Amazing and frightening a bit, too.
Thank you. Waiting for GOTO is actually one of my (human) compositions from my album Artificial. I guess Soundcloud rolled on to it after the Songs About Coding. I did use a tool for evolving melodies, but there wasn't any AI in making that one. The album is about AI, though. More info here: https://www.sean.co.uk/music/artificial-sean.uk.shtm
