Aaron Koenig's latest song "Artificial Minds" resonates uniquely in the modern world, as Artificial Intelligence becomes increasingly prevalent in all areas of society. Made completely by human hands, the track includes solely Spanish guitars, cajón, handclaps, and his unaltered voice, anchoring its story in classic Flamenco tones with a contemporary thematic spin.
Crafted in the core of Andalusia, "Artificial Minds" is closely tied to the culture and essence of Flamenco. Koenig's guitar playing is filled with the complex beats and emotional expression that are natural to this Spanish style, while the cajón and handclaps provide a rhythmic percussion reminiscent of a primal heartbeat.
The intended irony lies in the fact that "Artificial Minds" ponders a future dominated by technology, yet the music actually celebrates the essence of humanity, untouched by the digital world. It honors what machines can never imitate which are feelings, flaws, and the human stories within each musical tone.

Thank you for the great article! There is only one small mistake: I didn't play the Flamenco guitars myself, they were all played by Artemio Golovko from Málaga.
