Jonas Thorén, HumAi Producer
Brave Smart World Records™
Brave Smart Music™
Velvet Napalm™
I’m using AI as a thinking partner and a co-producer to turn verified facts, personal lyrics, and original concepts into music. All of it follows the same method: human consciousness leads, AI amplifies. I call this practice HumAism. Not traditional music, not just generated, but something in between. Closer to a piece in progress than a finished track, made for the greater good, and to be built on, not just listened to.
This is an art and research project exploring creativity and democratic expression. All music here is AI-amplified. I use Anthropic’s Claude in combination with Suno and Logic Pro. The debate over how AI music tools were trained is ongoing and unresolved. I leave the ethical and legal questions to those better placed to examine them, and welcome that scrutiny. If concrete evidence shows that a specific artist’s work was used in one of my tracks, I will remove it.

Sonicpedia tracks
Sonicpedia tracks (Einstein, Great White Shark, Anne Frank, Tibet, etc.) are not designed to be memorization tools. They are designed to be motivational hooks — an entry point that makes a student curious enough to want to learn more about a subject, not the material they’re meant to memorize facts from.
EDM Musicals
MindGames — In 2054, a bullied teenager traps his tormentors inside a virtual world with no logout. Nobody wins. Nobody gets out. Kraftwerk-style minimalism, and fifteen years from novel to album.
https://soundcloud.com/brave-smart-music/sets/mindgames
Brave Smart World — A 20-track instrumental EDM odyssey where alien insurgents, a feminist underground, and Tibetan monks unite to overthrow a collapsing old order. No narration — the uprising is told entirely through the music, chapter by chapter, drop by drop.

Velvet Napalm
Velvet Napalm — My most personal project: every vocal built from a single source — my own voice, transformed by AI into one hybrid instrument. Any genre, any subject — tracks built from real grief, joy, protests, recovery, satire, and storytelling — all lyrics and concepts mine, written in dialogue with an AI co-writer. As human as it gets, using every tool needed in a HumAi-DAW workflow.
