Description

My name is Steve Walton and Malatrope is my ancient handle. My Rumble presence was created to publish my songs. The musical score and the images are provided by AI tools, but the lyrics, image design, and video editing are all mine. Any blame is on my shoulders. Do please be aware that if you go searching there are at least three other "Steve Walton" music sites out there, and those guys can actually play musical instruments and might even know how to write music. Without AI assistance, I would be reduced to whistling.

JUST TO BE CLEAR: before you start Googling for bands you've never heard of, SWMV (Steve Walton's Music Videos) maintains an alternate fictional universe for persons, places, and things just to make this channel more fun. Using an AI to make music from lyrics often creates a horde of excellent songs. One method I use to publish these are covers by various "bands".

Many thanks to all those who have watched these. I do not claim to be a musician, but recent technical advances allow me to take what I can see and hear in my head and put it in front of me, and for that special pleasure my gratitude goes out to those who worked so hard bringing these tools to fruition.

A WORD ABOUT CHANNELS: There are dozens if not hundreds of separately-definable musical styles. Because I can't possibly devote a channel to each, a lot of widely varying content will be assigned to any of my given channels. "Classical" will get pretty much anything without vocals, including jazz and mythic movie score music. "Country" will get everything from old C&W to southern country rock. "Rock" will get 1950s rock-n-roll to modern rock and "popular" music (example: europop with synths), and pretty much all experimental music that includes anything electronic plus guitars. Oh, and disco. If any of you guys have a better concept for organizing my Rumble content, I'm all ears. So to speak. In the meantime, if you want to search or browse all of it at once, just go to my profile page at https://rumble.com/user/Malatrope, which has everything.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: I will ruthlessly delete any comments from people seeking to "help" me monetize this channel. I do not need or wish to expand any faster than will happen with the organic interest of people who enjoy the music. Please take your endless self-promotion elsewhere.
