Strange music from "Pat Metheny Trio"

[Carpetbagger_]

Today I'm seeing some odd music added to my feeds. The songs are attributed to the "Pat Metheny Trio" and something called "Colokmusic" but they don't sound like Metheny or anywhere near as good. What's more the songs are all 2:00 or shorter and have a soul-less, mechanical quality that makes me think they might be AI-generated. So is Metheny trying his hand at AI? Or is it from someone posing as Metheny? And if it's AI-generated how do I keep it out of my feeds unless I expressly want to hear AI-generated music?

Hey @Carpetbagger_, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. You can report content on Spotify following these steps, and Spotify will take a look and investigate. 

Have a nice day!

Hey I also noticed this. It seems like someone is stealing streaming royalties with AI generated tracks. I’ve reported this a few times to Spotify as these garbage tracks will sometimes auto play and enter into my recently listened playlists. Spotify has not resolved the issue yet. I also notice other musicians are having this happen to their music as well. I’ll probably just be switching to Apple Music soon to avoid this annoyance.
