UnCL Spotlight: Episode 2
UnCL
January 09, 2026
Episode 2 was a return for UnCL Spotlight from the winter holidays, with UncL editor and UnCL Spotlight co-host Allegra taking listeners on a deep dive about how AI is already making waves in the music industry.

Each commentary on AI and music during the show was accompanied by a curated playlist of songs by artists with a range of opinions and views on where this advent of AI in music will lead to, including covering recent controversy around AI generated music hits.

One of the more prominent example of criticism that Allegra highlights is the creation of ‘Is This What We Want’ , the 2025 silent protest album produced by 1,000 artists in response to the UK government’s proposed changes to copyright laws that would allow artificial intelligence firms to train LLMs on copyrighted music - check out the podcast above to hear one of the tracks from this album featured!
