I saw that Indie Gala has a royalty free music bundle for sale of this - https://www.arcade-origins.com/
Thing is, checking their site, there’s no way to actually buy straight off them, which is super weird. All “covers” are AI images and every video on YT channel was posted after Jan 2025.
I don’t know enough about music other than listening to it, so I have no idea what cues, if any, to look out for when it comes to AI music. I also do not want to spend a single cent buying something done with AI.
Theme 1 : 2mn00s
Theme 2 : 2mn00s
Theme 3 : 2mn00s
Theme 4 : 2mn00s
Theme 5 : 2mn00s
Theme 6 : 2mn00s
Theme 7 : 2mn00s
Theme 8 : 2mn00s
Theme 9 : 2mn00s
Theme 10 : 2mn00s
That’s pretty suspect.
Also,I can’t see any company info whatsoever. I would never give money to a nonexistent entity.
Here is an example of a legit music licensing company. https://www.extrememusic.com/
Notice how every song has lots of artist credits and licensing information? For example:
HEIST (FT. KXNG DOPE) (EXPLICIT) Details Publishing Lyrics Composers Dae One ASCAP: 1188044151, 33.34%
Michael Christopher Bowden ASCAP: 527364153, 33.33%
Kxng D.O.P.E. ASCAP: 820452078, 33.33% Collecting Publisher
EXTREME MUSIC CANADA INC SOCAN: 860583422, 100% Original Publisher
EXTREME MUSIC LIBRARY LTD PRS: 500879361, 100%
ISRC GBBPP2502923
Yeah, the lack of artist info, or any actual info on any of the tracks raised some suspicions in my head as well. Lack of track names was also odd, as several other music for games have some sort of title.
This guy found that his production software had a hard time isolating the tracks, probably because the music was all generated at once, rather than track by track. I’m not smart enough to know any more detail than that.
Based just on what you described, it sounds like it’s AI generated.
Does it sound like it was played with hands containing more fingers than what a normal human would have?
is it on YouTube? it’s AI.
is it on SoundCloud? it’s AI.
was it published after May 2021? it’s AI.
