What if Al artists had a place to actually share their music and get discovered?

I've been hanging around Al music communities for a while, and a pattern keeps coming up.

People are making great Al music... but there's no real place to share it and get discovered. On traditional platforms, uploads disappear, discovery is minimal, and Al tracks live in a gray area.

Instead of forcing Al music into systems that weren't built for it, a few of us started experimenting with something different:

A space where Al musicians can openly share their work and actually get discovered.

That's what Souna is trying to be not a replacement for YouTube Music Premium Apk or SoundCloud, but a community-first home where Al artists are the default, discovery is intentional, and people are there specifically to find new Al music.

It's early and imperfect, but it already feels more like a shared experiment than just another upload site.

Would love genuine thoughts:

Does this feel like something you'd want to share music on?

What would make discovery actually meaningful here?

I'm honestly just trying to figure out if this is something that artists want and whether it actually solves a problem... I'd appreciate any feedback you have :) Link if you want to explore https://ytmusicpremiumapk.net/

Fuck off man, the only people who want to listen to AI music are people making AI music. Do you seriously not understand what a cultural shithole it is? Music is already filled with enough derivative, soulless crap as it is, we don't need AI churning out an infinite amount more to smother the space.

edit: So this is a comment by you from 2 days ago: "I hate Al “music” and their creators even more, I don’t listen to their music". What's going on here? Why are you suddenly saying "People are making great Al music"?! Bot?

I get the frustration, and I’m not suddenly pro-AI music. My point wasn’t that AI should replace artists or culture just that some people experiment with it. I still don’t listen to AI music myself, and I agree it risks flooding an already oversaturated space with soulless stuff. No bot here, just nuance that didn’t come across well.
