Press Kit

We Tried to Talk Him Out of It.

BAUTASTOR is not a pro-AI band. Our singer also runs an AI company. He didn't ask. Press assets, an angle generator, and the real story below.

“We record on reel-to-reel tape and use AI to even out the math. It is not a contradiction. It is the only part of this that made sense.”

Fredrik Brunnberg · BAUTASTOR / HEIMLANDR

The Tweet

~45 words

BAUTASTOR (Swedish psych-rock, records to tape) reunited after seven years. The band didn't vote for AI. Our singer runs an AI company. He went missing for six months, came back saying "I solved it," and handed us Indiependr.ai. 19 tools from HEIMLANDR.io built for independent artists. Public beta 2026.

The Blurb

~160 words

OK, let's tell a story. BAUTASTOR is a Swedish psych-rock band. We record live to reel-to-reel tape. Seven years off, then we came back planning to take it slow. That didn't last. The industry had moved. +100,000 tracks upload to Spotify every day and the curve keeps climbing. A growing share is AI-generated. Real bands share a finite royalty pool with it. The platforms have no strong incentive to sort that out. Our singer, Fredrik Brunnberg, also runs an AI company (HEIMLANDR.io, founded 2023). We tried to talk him out of getting involved. He went into a room for six months anyway. No tour, no posts, no explanations. He came back looking slightly haunted and said, "I solved it." He handed us Indiependr.ai. 19 tools. One login. $39/month. A 72-hour promise: if the industry shifts, the counter ships within three days. We keep recording on tape. He keeps building. Everyone has gotten used to it.

Our Position on AI

+100,000 tracks upload to Spotify every day and the curve keeps climbing. A growing share is AI-generated. Real bands share a finite royalty pool with it. The platforms have no strong incentive to sort that out: for them, the future looks like an endless catalog with fewer demands.

The band didn't vote for AI. Most bands didn't. We don't build tools to generate music either. We build tools so real musicians can even out the math, meet algorithms with algorithms, and keep the human side of the work human. The era of AI is automation, so we automated the grind.

We're not anti-AI. We're anti-slop. We think the numbers are fixable.

The Ecosystem

Four pieces, one mission. Give independent artists a fighting chance.
