At Sovereign Magazine, we are committed to protecting your personal data and maintaining the highest standards of digital privacy. We do not use third-party advertising networks or traditional analytics platforms due to their cross-site tracking practices. This approach ensures a secure, privacy-focused environment for our readers.
Our Practices in Detail
Data Collection
We only collect personal data that you voluntarily provide to us for specific purposes. This includes:
Newsletter subscriptions: We collect your email address when you sign up to our newsletter
Contact forms: We collect the information you provide when sending us messages through our contact form
Account creation: We collect the details you provide when creating an account on our site
Purchases: We collect necessary information to process transactions and fulfil orders
In all cases, we collect only the data that is strictly necessary for each specific purpose and nothing more.
Cookies
We employ only essential, first-party cookies that are stored locally on your device. These include a consent cookie with a one-hour expiration period and caching cookies that enable faster page loading when you revisit our site. Additionally, we use a clearance cookie that stores the results of our security verification process. None of these cookies collect personal data. When you engage with certain services on our site (such as making a purchase), essential third-party service providers may use cookies necessary for their functionality. We minimise and eliminate as many cookies and tracking mechanisms as possible, and we routinely monitor and improve upon these practices.
Analytics
We collect website analytics to monitor performance and user experience, but we no longer use widely available commercial analytics solutions due to their cross-site tracking capabilities. Instead, we employ a self-hosted, privacy-first analytics solution that operates without cookies and anonymises all data, focusing on real user monitoring (RUM). This cookieless approach allows us to understand how visitors interact with our site whilst maintaining privacy protection.
External Links and Embedded Content
When you navigate to external websites through our links, standard referral information may be transmitted to indicate that you arrived from our site. Additionally, when you interact with embedded content (such as embedded videos), the content provider may collect data through their own systems, particularly if you are signed into their services. We have no control over third-party websites' or embedded content providers' tracking practices, and their privacy policies may differ from ours.
Affiliate Partnerships
When you use our affiliate links, tracking parameters allow advertisers to identify referrals from our website without transmitting additional personal information. However, affiliate partners may have their own tracking capabilities—for example, if you follow a link to a retailer and subsequently use their mobile app or are signed into their services, this may create additional tracking opportunities beyond our control. Should you make a purchase through these links, we may receive a commission, which supports our operations without compromising your data privacy.
Supporting Our Mission
Your support enables us to continue delivering quality journalism whilst maintaining our privacy-first approach. You can support our work by sharing our content or making a voluntary contribution through our donation platform.
Mozart AI founders Pascual Merita Torres, Immanuel Rajadurai, Arjun Khanna and Sundar Arvind
Here’s a sobering statistic that might explain why your favourite artist hasn’t released anything in ages: 85% of music today never gets released. That figure, cited by London-based Mozart AI, points to a fundamental problem plaguing the music industry – it’s not that artists lack ideas, but that they struggle to turn those ideas into finished tracks.
The issue isn’t creative bankruptcy. Musicians have plenty of inspiration. The problem lies in the grinding technical work required to transform a rough demo into something ready for public consumption. Industry research consistently shows that finishing tracks represents the biggest struggle for producers, with technical challenges in mixing and mastering creating particularly high barriers.
Most musicians hit the same wall: they can play, they can write, but they get bogged down in the endless technical minutiae of modern production. EQ settings, compression ratios, stereo imaging – these skills take years to master, and many artists simply don’t have that time or inclination.
No ads. No tracking.
We don’t run ads or share your data. If you value independent content and real privacy, support us by sharing.
Mozart AI thinks it can help. The company, which just raised £730,000 in pre-seed funding, has built what it calls the world’s first AI-powered digital audio workstation that acts as a co-producer rather than a replacement for human creativity.
Mozart AI DAW in Action
The distinction matters. Unlike generative AI tools that create complete songs from scratch, Mozart AI responds to natural language commands to handle specific production tasks. A musician might say ‘Hey Mozart, create a euphoric 8-bar chord pattern and EQ the lows out’, and the system delivers engineered musical output in seconds – work that would typically take considerable time and expertise.
‘We’re eliminating friction, not creativity,’ said Sundar Arvind, CEO and Co-Founder of Mozart AI. ‘Mozart AI was created to unlock creativity at the speed of inspiration, where every idea becomes a professional-grade song in minutes, not months.’
The Team Behind the Tool
Arvind’s background suggests he understands both sides of this equation. A former tennis prodigy who pivoted to music production, he was signed to Spinnin’ Records (part of Warner Bros.) by age 14 and has accumulated over two million streams on Spotify. His co-founders bring complementary skills: Arjun Khanna is a former professional debater who represented India at UN debates, Pascual Merita Torres holds an AI master’s from the University of Edinburgh alongside 10+ years of music production experience, and Immanuel Rajadurai combines AI research with professional bass playing.
The team previously co-founded Blitzo, an AI delivery platform that reached £1.3 million in annual recurring revenue, demonstrating their ability to build commercially viable AI applications.
Backing from Music Industry Veterans
The funding round was led by EWOR, a founder fellowship backed by unicorn founders from companies like SumUp, Adjust and ProGlove. The investor list also includes New Renaissance Ventures, Stefan Glaenzer, Atlantis Ventures and serial entrepreneur Felix Jahn.
Daniel Dippold, Founder & CEO at EWOR, highlighted the team’s execution speed: ‘Just 10 days after joining EWOR, Sundar, Arjun, and the team had built a first version of the product. They move at light speed.’
Early User Reactions
The platform has attracted attention from working producers who typically approach AI tools with scepticism. Max Sarre, a London producer with over one million streams, said: ‘I’ve avoided AI in my production for years, but Mozart felt empowering. The speed of suggestions and iterations is insane – feels like working with an AI replica of myself.’
Danny White, an LA producer who has collaborated with Tiësto, added: ‘I was very impressed by how text prompts could perform tedious tasks instantly. This is the next big leap in music production.’
These responses suggest Mozart AI might be addressing real workflow problems rather than creating solutions in search of problems. Similar patterns are emerging across creative industries, where AI tools handle technical grunt work while humans focus on creative decisions.
Ethical Boundaries
The company has established clear ethical guidelines that distinguish it from more controversial AI music tools. Mozart AI commits to never training on copyrighted music and never generating complete songs. This approach sidesteps the legal disputes currently facing companies like Suno, which faces lawsuits alleging it used copyrighted recordings to train its AI music generator.
If Mozart AI delivers on its promises, the implications could extend beyond individual productivity gains. Research suggests AI-enhanced DAWs significantly improve workflows by automating complex tasks and providing professional-quality results without requiring extensive technical expertise.
Such tools could democratise music production, potentially leading to more diverse voices in the marketplace. They might also change the economics of music creation, reducing the time and cost barriers that currently prevent many artists from releasing material. This could reshape how artists earn and manage their creative careers.
However, questions remain about how this might affect the role of traditional producers and audio engineers. Will these roles become redundant, or will they evolve to focus on higher-level creative decisions?
The Bigger Question
Mozart AI’s approach raises a fascinating question about the future of music production: if AI tools become sophisticated enough to handle the technical grunt work, will we actually see more music being finished and released? Or will musicians simply raise their production standards to fill the time saved?
The company will find out soon enough. Mozart AI launches publicly on 16 July 2025, with over 25,000 users already on the waitlist. Whether this represents genuine demand or simply curiosity about the latest AI tool remains to be seen.
If Mozart AI succeeds in removing the technical barriers that prevent most music from reaching listeners, it could represent a meaningful step towards unlocking the 85% of music that currently never makes it past the demo stage. For an industry built on creativity, that would be a welcome development indeed.
