I think I’m going to stop making music for a while. That’s not something I say lightly. Making music has mattered to me for a long time, and I’ve kept coming back to it because I love the moment when a melody starts to make sense—when one note leads naturally into the next, and the whole thing feels like it belongs together. But lately, when I use v6-mini, I keep running into the same problem. The melodies can feel like they’re jumping between random notes, without a clear direction or connection. A phrase starts, but it doesn’t seem to know where it’s going. The notes may be there, but they don’t come together into something I can believe in or build on. I’m not expecting every generation to be perfect. I know music is subjective, and I know a tool can surprise you in ways you didn’t plan. But this doesn’t feel like an interesting surprise. It feels like the basic musical thread is missing. I’ll listen again, hoping to hear a shape emerge, and instead I hear ideas that don’t quite relate to one another. After enough tries, it becomes hard to stay excited. That’s the part that wears me down. I don’t want to spend all my time rerolling, correcting, and hoping the next result will finally have a melody that holds together. I want to make music, not keep trying to rescue it from notes that seem to have no shared purpose. When that happens again and again, the process stops feeling creative and starts feeling like work with no real reward. So for now, I’m stepping away. Maybe it’s temporary. Maybe I’ll feel differently later. I’m not saying that music itself has stopped mattering to me. It still does. I’m saying that this experience has made it difficult to keep going, and I need to be honest about that instead of pretending everything is fine. And if anyone from the Suno team happens to hear this, I hope you’ll take the feedback seriously. I think this is something that could be improved. Please listen closely to the melodies people are getting from v6-mini. Pay attention to whether the notes form phrases that connect, whether a melody has a direction, and whether the ideas feel like they belong in the same piece. A melody doesn’t need to be complicated to work. It needs to feel intentional. I’m sharing this because I want the tool to get better, not because I want to tear anyone down. I know there are people working hard on it, and I appreciate the effort that goes into making music tools for everyone. But when a core part of the experience isn’t working for me, it matters to say so plainly. If the team listens and can address the way these melodies wander between unrelated notes, that could make a real difference. Until then, I think I need to put this aside. I’m tired of hoping each new try will suddenly become a melody I can connect with. I’d rather take a break, remember why I loved making music in the first place, and come back only if the experience feels musical again. That’s where I am right now. I’m disappointed, but I’m still hoping things can change.
