Hallwood Signs Historic Record Deal With AI Music Designer
The AI music designer, Imoliver, is widely recognized on the AI music generation platform Suno
Hallwood Media, the independent music company, has made history by signing the first-ever record deal with an AI music designer. The designer creates under the name Imoliver.
Imoliver:
Imoliver is a human being rather than a virtual artist.
Hallwood describes him as “the most-streamed creator on AI music generation platform Suno.”
This will also be the first time a Suno creator has signed a record deal.
The deal:
Hallwood will release Imoliver’s song, “Stone,” on August 8.
A full album is expected on October 24.
A series of singles will come between “Stone” and the album.
Hallwood will support with marketing, promotion, and artist services.
What they said:
Hallwood Founder Neil Jacobson: “Imoliver represents the future of our medium. He’s a music designer who stands at the intersection of craftwork and taste. As we share his journey, the world will see the dexterity behind his work and what makes it so special. What he does is exactly why I love music and why we push boundaries at Hallwood.”
Imoliver: “Signing with Hallwood is a huge moment, not just for me, but for the future of music. It’s a sign the industry is ready to embrace new ideas and new ways of creating. This isn’t about replacing artists, it’s about expanding what’s possible.”
