Use AI on your release without letting it call the take

For Artists, producers, managers and music teams responsible for creative decisions, release preparation and the details that connect them

Everything for Music teams

Take one song from artist notes to a reviewed release packet: a brief, labeled sketches, a listening decision on record, a track sheet that traces to the records, and copy built from approved facts.

What you’ll be able to do

By the end, you can…

Turn rough notes into a working briefDraft an artist brief from supplied notes that states the creative direction and names the one thing the song must keep, such as a first verse of only voice and guitar. Each point is marked as either taken from the notes or assumed, with a named person to confirm each assumption.
Prompt contrasting directions and label every sketchWrite prompts for two or three different directions, for example a new bridge, that all keep the fixed element. Tie every sketch file to its prompt and version, because nobody can approve a version nobody can name.
Make the listening decision yourself, in writingWrite a listening memo that keeps what you heard apart from what you'd prefer. Judge each sketch against the brief, not against how finished it sounds, and record keep, return or drop with the label, the decider and the date.
Build a track sheet that traces back to the recordsList composition credits and recording credits separately, link every name and figure to a specific supplied record, and leave unsupported or conflicting fields open with an owner, rather than filling them with a guess.
Write release copy from approved facts onlyBuild an approved-facts list before any drafting, keep the assistant to that list, and check every sentence against it. Write an AI-use disclosure that says plainly what AI did and didn't do on the track.
Get every open release question to its ownerStart the list with who consented to what, sort each AI output as generic or derivative, flag anything that needs permission or clearance, and give every question an owner and a deadline before release.

How it works

A tutor that meets you where you are

  1. Lessons that meet you at your levelSix lessons follow one song from notes to a release packet. They adapt to what you already know. If you've run several releases, you move faster. If you've never kept a take sheet on paper, the lessons slow down and fill in the steps.
  2. An AI tutor you can ask anythingType or speak your questions while you work. Ask why a field should stay open, have the tutor check your brief against the notes, or talk through a listening memo. The tutor helps you structure and check your work. The listening decision stays with you.
  3. Practice on supplied materialYou work from supplied artist notes, sketch exports and a track packet. You don't need an account on any music-generation platform, and nothing is submitted or published.
  4. Quizzes and flashcards tied to each lessonShort quizzes and flashcards go with every lesson. They cover things like composition versus recording credits, and generic versus derivative outputs.
  5. Progress tracking and a certificateTrack your progress through both modules and get a certificate of completion when you finish.

Curriculum

The curriculum

There are two modules with three lessons each. Each lesson is one prompted task you can repeat. Module 1 takes the song from artist notes to a listening decision. Module 2 covers the information around the song, from the track sheet to the release questions.

Module 1Turn artist notes into a working brief.3 lessons

  1. 1Write the artist brief
    • Draft an artist brief from supplied notes with a prompted chat assistant, then check every line against the notes
    • Name the fixed element the song must keep and explain why the brief has to state it
    • Mark each brief point as either taken from the notes or assumed, and name who confirms each assumption
    • Write the brief task as a repeatable prompted method
  2. 2Compare musical directions
    • Write prompts for two or three contrasting directions that each carry the brief's fixed element
    • Build a labeling scheme that ties every sketch file to its prompt and version
    • Choose which supplied sketches belong in a fair comparison and which to set aside, with reasons
    • Explain why a generated sketch does not establish permission to release it
  3. 3Record the listening decision
    • Write a listening memo that separates observations, judgment against the brief, and personal preference
    • Test each sketch against the fixed element and the creative direction instead of against how finished it sounds
    • Decide to keep, return or drop each sketch, and record the decision with the sketch label, decider and date
    • Use an assistant to structure and check the memo without handing it the listening decision

Module 2Prepare a track for a clear review.3 lessons

  1. 4Draft the track-information sheet
    • Draft a track-information sheet that lists composition credits and recording credits separately
    • Trace every name and figure on the sheet to a specific supplied record
    • Mark unsupported or conflicting fields as open and assign each to an owner
    • Choose what packet information to share with an assistant and what to keep out
  2. 5Write release copy
    • Build an approved-facts list from the track sheet before any copy is drafted
    • Write a prompt that restricts the assistant to approved facts, then check every sentence against the list
    • Write an honest AI-use disclosure that states plainly what AI did and didn't do on the track
    • Explain how a stale date or title survives in copy and how to prevent it
  3. 6List release questions
    • Build a release-questions list that starts with who consented to what
    • Sort each AI output in the project as generic or derivative and flag those that need someone's permission
    • Assign every open question an owner, the answer needed and a point before release when it must be resolved
    • Assemble the course's task methods into one written set ready for agent work

Who it’s for

Made for you if…

Made for: Artists, producers, managers and music teams responsible for creative decisions, release preparation and the details that connect them

Independent artists who run their own releases

You make the creative calls and handle the credits, dates and copy too. This course gives you a written method for letting AI draft and check while you keep the ear and the final say.

Producers

You know which take is the song. Here you practice prompting contrasting directions, labeling every sketch and writing down a listening decision that holds up against the brief.

Artist managers

You've seen what goes wrong in the handoffs: the wrong bounce goes up, a player is missing from the credits, an old date stays live in a post. You'll build a track sheet and a release-questions list that get each gap to its owner early.

Small label or release teams of two or three

If the release take sheet only exists in someone's head, this course helps you write it down as methods your whole team can repeat and later hand to an agent.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need Suno, LANDR or another music-generation account?

No. In this course you write prompts and judge supplied or permitted sketch exports. You don't set up accounts or generate audio on any platform. Hands-on platform practice starts in the Intensive.

Will AI make the creative decisions for me?

No. You use an assistant to draft, structure and check your work, but you make the listening decision and record it under your name. The course is built on the habit of calling the take yourself.

What will I have at the end?

A release packet for one song: an artist brief, labeled sketch prompts, a listening memo with recorded decisions, a track-information sheet, release copy with an AI-use disclosure, and a list of release questions with owners. You'll also have the steps written down as one set of repeatable methods.

What should I know before starting?

You should know how a song gets from demo to release (versions, credits, splits, release date), be able to describe what you hear in plain words, and be comfortable typing requests into a chat assistant. The course takes you from beginner to intermediate in about 8 hours.

Does the course give legal advice on consent, samples or copyright?

No. It teaches you to name the questions, such as who consented to what, whether an output is derivative and what needs clearance, and to send each one to the person who can answer it. It doesn't answer legal questions.

Does it cover building AI agents?

Not in this course. Building and running proactive agents in OpenAI Dots or Claude Duet is covered in the Intensive. The briefs, release facts and review habits you practice here prepare you for that work.

Does it cover mixing, mastering, distribution or marketing?

No. Production technique, submitting to a distributor, publishing announcements, campaign strategy and playlist pitching are all outside this course.
