60% of Musicians Are Already Using AI to Make Music
According to a recent survey by Ditto Music, nearly 60% of independent artists are already integrating AI into their music-making process.
Here's how they're using it:
77% for creating album artwork
66% for mixing and mastering
62% for music production
47% for help with songwriting
Interestingly, only 28% of musicians say they completely avoid AI in their creative process.
Why Musicians Are Turning to AI
Lower Barriers to Entry
AI tools are making music creation more accessible to artists without large budgets or formal training.
Creative & Technical Support
From mastering tracks to suggesting chord progressions, AI acts like a digital assistant—helping artists focus on their vision.
Innovation & Experimentation
Artists can use AI to explore new sounds, create synthetic voices, or generate visuals that match their sonic identity.
Final Thoughts
AI is quickly becoming a creative partner rather than just a tech trend. With over half of independent musicians already on board, it's clear this is more evolution than fad. But it also raises important questions about originality, ethics, and artistic identity.
Sell your AI Music
If the music you create—whether using tools like SUNO or other AI platforms—includes a strong human touch, such as original lyrics, creative ideas, and a well-crafted melody with a pleasant vocal performance, it has real potential to succeed. High-quality AI-assisted music can absolutely sell. In fact, many artists are already earning substantial income by distributing their AI-generated tracks on streaming platforms that welcome this type of content.
Some popular platforms that accept AI-generated music include Bandcamp, Spotify, Ditto Music, and DistroKid.
