Curated Chaos - An AI Music Podcast

As a trumpet player and a rock fan, Glen chases the sweet spot where horn arrangements and rock energy make each other better — resulting in his longest intro yet, a track that earns every second of it, and one of his personal catalog favorites.

A bittersweet Beastie Boys homage built on the irony of railing against being replaced by technology while assembling the track with AI — featuring a “signal jammed” refrain Glen is quietly proud of, Star Trek references he had to fix himself, and a sincere dedication to MCA.

No elaborate concept this time — just a longtime love of female-fronted rock, from Heart to The Cranberries to Evanescence, translated into a hard-driving anthem built purely for energy and attitude.

Built around an old published poem of Glen’s, this prog rock ballad wraps genuine emotional weight in absurdist wordplay — a track that sounds ridiculous on the surface while quietly reflecting the internal push-and-pull of OCD beneath it.

A deep dive into the Paisley Underground — the L.A. jangle-pop scene Glen always loved but never knew had a name — this 80s-flavored track balances the ethereal and the peppy, landing somewhere melodic, mysterious, and quietly alive.

Gina’s second Suno request comes with built-in wordplay — when your name is Glen and you’re making a Celtic song, the title was basically inevitable. Features the lyric “the glen of my heart,” a moment Gina has claimed personally, and one line Glen is still arguing with.

Sparked by Jeff Goldblum goofing around with Jurassic Park lyrics on a jazz record, this one asks: what if a dinosaur blockbuster were treated as a classic lounge standard? The result is equal parts elegant and absurd — which, as it turns out, is the sweet spot.

A mood-first, genre-second blues rock dive into late-night bad decisions — where the lights are low, the judgment is lower, and the whole track leans into swagger, temptation, and the kind of chemistry that only makes sense after midnight.

For the second break week, Easton Reed returns with one of the most chaotic tracks in the Northern Echoes catalog: Herdin’ Cats, straight from the album Another Round. It’s rowdy, it’s ridiculous, and it’s a perfect mid-season detour. Take the ride — Curated Chaos comes roaring back to its normal… well, chaos next week.
