The AI Song Contest 2021 was the second edition of the AI Song Contest, an international music competition for songs that have been composed using artificial intelligence (AI).[1] The 2021 contest was independently organised by John Ashley Burgoyne, Ryan Groves, Anna Huang, Rujing Stacy Huang, Hendrik Vincent Koops, and Rebecca Leger, and it was supported by the technology hubs Wallifornia MusicTech, DeepMusic.ai, and Amsterdam Music Lab.[2][3] The results of the competition were announced on 6 July 2021 at a virtual conference that was part of the four-day Music & Innovation Summit organised by Wallifornia MusicTech.[4] The contest was won by M.O.G.I.I.7.E.D. from the United States with the song "Listen to Your Body Choir".[5]

Format[edit]

Each participating team had to submit a song of up to four minutes that has been composed using artificial intelligence.[6] Human input was allowed, but the more AI was used, the more points the entry got from the jury.[6] The entries were also evaluated by the public through online voting.[6] The winner was announced in a live show on 6 July 2021.
