Background music that fits the cut
Describe the scene and pace, turn on Instrumental Only, and get a wordless bed that sits under speech or titles.
One sentence, two takes
AI Generate Music
Describe a song in one sentence and OpenMusic generates an original song or instrumental from it, two takes by default, so you can pick by ear. It works for video backgrounds, demos, and lyrics you already wrote, and it is just as handy for skating programs and floor routines that need their own wordless music.
- DescribeName the genre, mood, and two or three instruments.
- ChoosePrompt for a description, Own Lyrics for your words.
- ComparePlay both takes at the same volume.
- KeepSave the take that fits and download it.
The problem
Who Uses AI Generate Music
Stock libraries hand everyone the same safe tracks, and writing music from scratch takes skills and time most people do not have. To AI generate music, you only need to say what the track is for: the mood, the pace, and the sound.
The generator writes a new track from that sentence, so the music fits your project instead of the other way round.
Lyrics turned into a full song
Paste your words in Own Lyrics, describe the style, and pick Random, Male or Female for the vocal.
Routine music with its own shape
Write one brief per section of a skating or floor program, such as the opening and the peak, and judge each pair of takes against the athlete.
Five steps
How to AI Generate Music From One Sentence
Whenever you generate AI music here, every run follows the same short loop: one clear sentence, two takes, one careful listen, then keep the better take or change one detail.
- 1
Open the AI Music Generator
Stay on the Prompt tab to describe the music, or switch to Own Lyrics when you already have words to sing.
- 2
Decide on vocals
Turn on Instrumental Only before the run if the track has to stay wordless, or leave it off for a sung version.
- 3
Describe the song in one sentence
Name the genre, the mood, and two or three instruments, for example "warm acoustic folk, gentle guitar and soft piano, for a travel video". Add Inspiration tags only after that sentence is clear.
- 4
Generate and compare the two takes
Press Generate Music for Free Now and sign in when asked. Number of Songs to Generate starts at 2, so play both takes at the same volume.
- 5
Keep one or change one detail
Download the take that fits. If both miss, change one word, such as the mood or one instrument, and run again.
The panel
AI Generate Music Controls on the OpenMusic Panel
Everything you need to AI generate music from text sits on one card: the Prompt box, the Audio and Lyrics buttons, the Instrumental Only toggle, the Inspiration tags, and the song count. The capture shows a typed one-sentence brief with Instrumental Only switched on; the tags and the song count sit just below it on the same card.
- PromptDescribe the style, mood, or scene of the music you want, in one plain sentence.
- Audio and LyricsAdd an audio file as a reference, or switch to Own Lyrics to have your words sung.
- InspirationTags such as Country, Folk, or Rock add that word to the end of your prompt.
- Number of SongsThe counter reads 2 when you open the panel; use the minus and plus buttons to change it.
What you get
What Each AI Generate Music Run Gives You
One typed sentence is enough to get finished audio you can play straight away. Here is what a run hands back and what you can do with it afterwards.
- Two takes
- The song counter opens at 2, which means you hear two versions side by side instead of betting on a single guess.
- Sung or wordless
- Leave vocals on for a full song, use Own Lyrics for your own words, or turn on Instrumental Only for a wordless track.
- Standard files
- Paid plans download MP3, WAV, and FLAC; free users can download a limited number of songs.
- Clear rights
- Monthly and annual plans both cover use within the scope of the Commercial License; the certificate costs 5 credits per song on monthly or Pay Once, 0 on annual.
Habits
AI Generate Music Mistakes That Blur Your Takes
Most weak runs come from the same four habits. Each one has a simple replacement that makes the next pair of takes easier to judge.
Good to know
What to Know Before You AI Generate Music
You get new audio written from your sentence. Choosing the take, checking where it will be used, and the final mix stay with you, and every run uses credits.
- Trim each take in your editor to match the length of your scene or clip.
- Whether a track is accepted for a particular event, venue, or platform depends on that place's own rules; check them before the music is final.
- The free plan includes 30 credits a year after sign-up, which covers 15 generations; each song costs 2 credits.
- Unused credits clear on the renewal date; you can also buy credits once with Pay Once.
Questions
AI Generate Music FAQ
What does it mean to AI generate music on OpenMusic?
You describe the music in the Prompt box, and the AI Music Generator writes new tracks from that description. Name the style, mood, or scene, plus two or three instruments, in one sentence. Leave the song counter at its opening value of 2 and you get two takes to judge at the same volume.
Keep the take that fits and download it. If both miss, change one detail and run again.
Can I AI generate instrumental music only?
Yes. Turn on Instrumental Only before you generate, so each take in that run comes back as pure instrumental music. Then describe the track in plain words, such as "calm lo-fi beat, soft keys, for a study video", and name two or three instruments you want to hear so the music supports the scene. Each run gives two takes, so play both under your video before you keep one.
Can I use my own lyrics?
Yes. To AI generate music from lyrics you wrote, switch over to Own Lyrics and drop your verses and chorus into the Lyrics box. Then give the Styles box a short line on genre and feel, for example warm acoustic folk, slow and hopeful. A title of up to 80 characters is optional, and the vocal can be set to Male, Female or Random. Listen against your lines: if the melody crowds a verse, trim that verse rather than packing more words into the style line.
How many credits does it use?
Each song costs 2 credits. With a signed-up account, your free plan carries 30 credits a year, enough for 15 generations, and any left over clear on the renewal date, so use them on real projects instead of saving them.
If you need more, move to a paid plan or buy credits once with Pay Once. Free users can download a limited number of songs; paid plans download MP3, WAV, and FLAC.
Can I use the music commercially?
Yes, within the scope of the Commercial License. Monthly and annual plans both cover use within the scope of the Commercial License; the certificate costs 5 credits per song on monthly or Pay Once, 0 on annual.
Licenses you have already obtained stay valid within the scope of the Commercial License if you cancel later, and songs you have already released can keep earning. Downloads may be limited after you cancel, so download your songs and license files while your plan is active.
What should I write in the prompt?
One sentence that says what the track is for and how it should sound. The placeholder gives the idea: "A relaxing piano piece for studying." Add the genre, the mood, and two or three instruments, and keep to details you would hear when listening. Inspiration tags add a word to the end of your prompt, and there is a dice button next to the box.
