Celestara Music

At 5, I started on the violin, I wasn’t good. At 7, I switched to piano, I was better. At 10, I found the right instrument, the guitar. With a professional classical musician for a mother, Heavy Metal was my only option! By 18, I was writing my own music, playing in a local band and not taking life too seriously. Then life caught up… a real job, real debts and real relationships… all came and went. So, decades later, Celestara Music was born. I still play the guitar and keyboard, but now I use AI to support my music production. My lyrics are predominantly hand-written, many of my songs contain my own melodies. I then craft the finished track using AI tools and Ableton Live. I am, 100% human. All my songs contain a part of me and my passion for the Scottish Highlands. They tell the story of my renewal, my troubles and my fight to rebuild after a desperate time. While many disregard music when they see the label ‘AI’… for me, it has given me the power to continue my love for music. Yes, the vocals are generated using AI tools, however, the storytelling, composition, production and artistic direction are entirely mine. Celestara Music, is a fusion of traditional Celtic spirit and cutting edge technology, it’s music for the 21st Century. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you can see behind the ‘AI’ badge and recognise the human soul in every track… Take care. ‘M’ Smyth: Musician, Composer, Engineer, Producer, Artist and Editor.
