Me and Ai, Portrait
"Jiu-jitsu taught me how to hold emotions in. Music is where I let them out."
The latest from Me and Ai. Vintage hardware grit, AI stems treated like sampled vinyl, and a slow-build pulse made for headphones and afterhours rooms. Out everywhere now.
An emotional, slightly dark progressive house piece. Hardware synths and AI stems treated like vinyl samples. Lyrics in Ukrainian and English. Cinematic, restrained, weighted with memory.
Me and Ai is the work of Vitali Chadrine, an electronic music project where vintage hardware synthesizers meet modern AI tools. The approach treats AI output the way 80s and 90s producers treated vinyl: a source to dig through, find the moment that matters, and shape it into something new.
The skill is finding useful moments in AI output and shaping them. The story still has to be yours.
This is alternative progressive house with a pulse of its own. Vintage hardware grit meets AI stems treated like sampled vinyl, where a producer goes crate-digging through forgotten records. Patient builds, cinematic weight, and song structures shaped around story instead of the drop. Slow-build energy, emotional gravity, dance music for people who actually listen. Made for headphones and afterhours rooms, for the moment when the night turns honest.
