(DailyMusicRoll Editorial):- London, United Kingdom Apr 27, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – British band Slave Labour are set to release “On A Train”, a new single accompanied by one of the world’s first fully AI-created music videos. Created by AI specialists True Blockhouse, it features AI-generated singer and actress Mollie Maid, the project signals a major step forward in how technology is reshaping the music and entertainment industries.
Merging cutting-edge artificial intelligence with deep musical heritage, Slave Labour’s new single “On A Train”–featuring virtual artist Mollie Maid–introduces one of the world’s first fully AI-generated music videos. Designed, performed, and “filmed” entirely using next-generation AI technologies, the project represents a groundbreaking leap forward for both music production and visual storytelling.
The concept: a film within a film, where a woman’s monotonous commuter train journeys spark vivid reflections on lost opportunities, passions, and alternate life paths. These emotional beats are brought to life through hyper-real AI-generated visuals and stylised cinematic sequences–all starring Mollie Maid, an AI singer and actress crafted through innovative machine learning techniques.
Mollie Maid performs multiple characters across the narrative, showcasing the flexibility and emotional depth achievable through AI-driven persona design and animation. Her vocals, too, are AI-generated, marking a major milestone in the integration of synthetic performance within mainstream music video production.
Adding to the project’s unique authenticity, Slave Labour used voice cloning technology to recreate the voice of their original frontman, who left the group more than 30 years ago. By training AI models on vintage recordings, the band was able to revive the distinctive vocal tone that defined their early sound–bridging decades with a seamless blend of old soul and new tech.
Technical Highlights:
AI Visual Production: Environments, cinematography, lighting, character modeling, and animation generated using advanced AI creative platforms.
AI Vocal Synthesis: Original vocal performance recreated through deep learning-based voice cloning, offering unmatched authenticity and emotional resonance.
Narrative Innovation: Dual-layered story structure (“film within a film”) designed specifically for AI storytelling dynamics.
Full AI Integration: From concept development to final edit, the entire video was produced without traditional filming equipment or live actors.
“We see AI not just as a tool, but as a new creative partner,” said a spokesperson for Slave Labour. “This project is about exploring how technology can enhance emotion, storytelling, and memory, rather than replace them.”
“On A Train” is set for release on [May 2nd 2025], with the music video premiering exclusively on [youtube]. Slave Labour and Mollie Maid’s collaboration challenges preconceptions of what’s possible in music and media–and invites audiences to experience the future, today.
