TLDR version.
The Velvet Sundown, a psychedelic rock band with over half a million Spotify listeners, is likely AI-generated. They appeared suddenly with two albums, no real-world presence, and AI-like imagery and bios.
The band, supposedly formed by four members who don't seem to exist outside their Spotify profile, has sparked controversy for potentially padding playlists with "ghost artists," possibly to reduce royalty payouts to real musicians.
Their music, showing signs of AI creation via tools like Suno, has gained traction through playlist placements, raising concerns about authenticity in the music industry.
