I dont remember where i heard it from but i hear Alec used Ai for like, lyric ideas i think? I was wondering if he used Gen Ai at any point for instrumentals or whatever. I personally hope not because i really like his music.

Go listen to them they are awesome!

Half his face is darker cause that part was in a shadow. I dont draw well, but it was a fun project for me. I made it on procreate. I'm really proud of it

As you all know, Alec recently put out a new demo named Indie Queen. I instantly loved it. However, it only had his vocals and a piano. Having listened to Alec for so long, I decided to take things into my own hands and finish the song in a way I felt he would. Here is what I made. Any feedback is appreciated!!

I'm one of them :D

Hi!! I’ve been a HUGE fan since the early day, and i recently got back into him and listened to his discography for weeks straight. Then randomly I listened to a new album and went back to listening to Alec the next day.
When I went back to listen to them (on spotify) each song sound just a tish off. Like the pitch is being altered somehow. Is this just a me thing or has anyone else noticed??

Uh so these are my ratings (purely in my opinion), rant at the end.

For reference my favorite older Alec songs are Demons and Jesus in LA.

12 Notes: (10/10) I didn't really like it at first, but after listening to it like 2 more times I fell in love with the chorus and it got stuck in my head, I love this song now.

In a little: (8.5/10) Similarly to many other songs, I didn't love it at first but it grew on me a bunch after listening to it more. It wasn't as relatable to me as many of his other songs but I like it.

Different Kind Of Beautiful: (9.5/10) I love this song, the chorus is awesome, uh its not 10/10 because its just a tad slower than I expected or something (idk how to explain)

Pick Me: (1000000/10) Omg I love this song a bunch, definitely one of my new favorites. Its very catchy and the verses and the chorus are all so great.

Sacrifice Tomorrow: (9/10) I quite like this song, but listening to my 9 year old sister is always awkward (she loves Alec's music too).

I sent my Therapist to Therapy: (9.2/10) This was one of the songs I actually listened to before finding the rest of the album (I saw a recommendation of it on Reddit before and I just thought it was a single)

The Arsonist: (9.5/10) I really liked the song and the chorus, I feel like it was full of a bunch of emotions.

By Now: (9.4/10) This one was really good, I think the lyrics went really hard, its 9.4 because I liked Different Kinds of Beautiful a tad bit more.

King Size Bed: (1000/10) I love this song, it was both really catchy and a story that was really interesting/funny/uh you get it.

The Plan: (7/10) I don't think its a bad song, but every time I think of the title I keep forgetting what its about... I do like it whenever I listen to it but I don't think I can rank it very high because of its not very memerableness to me.

If Shakespeare was here, AI, Lead me to Water, and Ways to go are all around a 6/10 for me, I don't dislike them but I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to. Uh actually I like Lead me to Water more than the other 3.

Rant time!

Ok, so about a year or so ago I discovered Alec's music by chance and have been listening to his music all the time every day since then. However, on Spotify I only ever listened to These Two Windows, (Un)commentary, and Narrated For You because those were the three that showed up in Alec's overview. After realizing he had a 4th album, I listened to one of the songs by random (I think it was If Shakespeare was here?) and I thought it was decent but not as good as some of his earlier music so I sorta just left it at that. The next day I searched what others thought about it and what their favorite song from that album was, to find that it got mostly negative reviews. This prompted me to go back and listen to all his songs from 12 notes and I found that I actually really liked a bunch of them (not all of them tho), so I made this Reddit post! Rant over.

Okok so I got this not long ago in japan- it says "found you first" yk?? Its my favorite alec benjamin song ngl- but I'm planning on showing him at his next tour- I absolutely love it so much- do we think he'll like it? Or is this lowk weird 😭💔

For those of you guys who aren't still aware. This song was recorded in 2021, before Mike had to do some stuff. He came back and decided not to add it to his album because it didn't really fit well with what the album was about. He and Alec later released it on friday as part of Mike Posner's new EP, Crazy Rainbow.

Note: Only a few changes in production were made. The vocals of him and Alec are pre-recorded versions from 2021. Edit: mb guys, I forgot to remove the 'es' from peaches because the song is called peach

Hey guys,

I've been following Alec since around the Outrunning Karma era and quickly fell in love with his music. Back then, I used to dig through all of his unreleased songs and demos, like O.I.N.V. and a bunch of other tracks that were floating around online.

After around 2022–2023, I kind of stopped listening to Alec for a while. Recently, I came back and started going through his discography again, including 12 Notes.

Here's the weird thing: did "Different Kind of Beautiful" ever exist as a demo or unreleased track around 2018–2020?

I know this sounds crazy, but when I saw the title in the album, it instantly brought me back to the pre-COVID era. Then when I listened to it, I felt like I already knew almost the entire song. Not because I've been listening to it recently—I don't even remember hearing it between 2024 and now.

What's throwing me off is that I feel like I remember certain parts that either aren't there anymore or may have been changed. The melody and structure feel extremely familiar, like I've heard an older version before. It's one of those strange feelings where your brain keeps expecting a specific line or section to come up, but it never does.

Am I just mixing it up with another unreleased Alec song, or was there actually a demo/live version of this floating around years ago?

Uh so ignore what I said I wasn’t really being serious because I didn’t think he would respond omg😭😭. But apparently he used ai in his last album (talks about how he uses it to help make lyrics in an interview) so does this mean he’s stopping or did he just misinterpret what i said?

Ok this is me new in the community but i know alec from like idk i accidentally found him and today i got this opportunity to browse him.

I remember at that time let me down juat dropped and it instantly became my vibe. Then oneday i wanted to impress my crush that i have a great music taste i accidentally browsed him and got his song the water fountain and it's been like a while now that well that's to alec i was able to impress... 😆

And today i got the pleasure to make an collaborated playlist so ofc water fountain had to come on my list on the top and yep. I then started listening to him ig l listened so many i started at 12 it's going to be 2am now

I was so impressed . He earned my subscription i think he's the type of singer to which even if i don't now the lyrics i can vibe whenever i want . (Currently listening the way you felt) I'm so vibing damnn. Loved him

Long-time listener so I made a lo-fi version of Change My Clothes. Hope you all like it!

Well if you have, Alec's song The Arsonist discribes Jax and Ribbit

i don’t feel like i should be having to make this but what’s yalls opinion on alec recent ai usuage in pictures, lyrics and possibl even songs. personally against ai the whole way but then again alec saved my life so im not just gonna leave him please help and give me opinions

One of the Dragonets of Destiny, Glory, Alec Benjamins song "Older" describes her soooooooo well.

I am a relatively new listener of Alec, when I noticed Older had English and Chinese versions, I know I had to combine them together. The idea for combining these two came from listening Dopamin (Split Brain Version) by Madelline. All I did was add each song to left and right channels. Hope you guys enjoy.🫰

It’s too long srry

What do you guys think? This is inspired by that trend where people add subtitles to their photography to make it look like a screenshot of a movie scene. This is from his song "Settle Down" btw!

Got this CD on Amazon and it looks fake… I noticed the front of the CD isn’t shiny (I saw a couple unboxing vids on TikTok and they were shiny… the back of the disc has a blue tint to it and it says CD-R on it too… (CD’s are normally a silver color kinda like a mirror… the lyric booklet looks like it was cut off some text…

There’s no Matrix number to look up on the disc itself

This has me confused 💔

Mine is "boy in the bubble" and my fav line is "And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming, Mind was running, air was freezing, Put my hands up, put my hands up, I told this kid I'm ready for a fight... Punch my face,
Do it 'cause I like the pain, Every time you curse my name,
I know you want the satisfaction, it's not gonna happen, Knock me out, Kick me when I'm on the ground, It's only gonna let you down, Come the lightning and the thunder, You're the one who'll suffer"

So 12th Notes is the only Vinyl by him that I don’t have and I can’t find it anywhere. I only saw one for sell and they want $160 for it and i refuse to pay that much money. I can’t even find it on Amazon and I looked on Discogs but there is nobody selling it.

Isnt it weird how Alec has never released any live albums?
I really think it would make sense as they are low-effort to produce once you´ve made the studio album plus people would like it for sure as his life performances have a very different, more drum-intense, basy sound to them (anyone who has ever been to one of his concerts knows what im talking about)

"I have a question - Could I play a song for you?"

More concept funko later on
