Audialab has announced a groundbreaking technology that uses artificial intelligence to generate an infinite number of unique sounds from a single input: Deep Sampler.

“Before deep sampling, there were only two ways for music creatives to get a new sound: recording a sound or synthesizing it. There’s now a third way,” explains co-founder of Audialab Berkeley Malagon, an AI researcher who previously worked at NASA, Disney, and Microsoft. Malagon spearheaded the development of Deep Sampler alongside a team of engineers and musicians at Audialab. “Deep Sampler can analyze any existing sound and transform it into completely novel ones that couldn’t have existed any other way.“

“Artificial Intelligence is accelerating at a rapid pace, and our mission is to bring the power of those developments to producers and musicians worldwide while ensuring the human creative spirit is protected,” said Mike Chen, the other co-founder of Audialab, technologist, and member of KIMBEMIKE. “We are musicians, computer scientists, and ethicists ourselves, and AI needs to be taken very seriously by the industry. Our core mission is to develop AI tools that enhance the creativity of professional musicians and producers responsibly.”

Mike Chen and Kim Montoya, the forces behind the alt-pop duo KIMBEMIKE, have been co-writing, co-producing, recording, and performing music since 2020. KIMBEMIKE’s debut single “Galaxies” marks a historic moment in music production as the first song ever to use Deep Sampling technology.

Deeply committed to the ethical use of AI for music production, Mike Chen, Kim Montoya, and Berkeley Malagon have established EthicalUse.org, a non-profit initiative dedicated to guiding the responsible development and usage of AI to help ensure that it empowers and strengthens artists around the world as the technology evolves.

“We stand for the proper education, ethical, and transparent use of AI while vehemently opposing its use for plagiarism, theft, demotivation, or replacement of artists,” explains Kim Montoya of KIMBEMIKE. “AI is a disruptive technology that has deep implications for artists, which is why we believe it is critical to educate and empower artists with tools made by artists and for artists so that they can stay ahead of the curve, innovate, and explore their fullest potential.”
