Genre and mood

Music generator with style recipes for every genre

This music generator starts from genre and mood: pick a style recipe or write your own, generate, and compare the versions that come back. For quick experiments, short prompts on the Wild profile produce ideas you would not have thought to ask for.

Steps

How it works

Pick a genre and mood
Start from a recipe on this page, or from one word for the feeling and one for the genre.
Choose a profile
Fast for a quick look, Pro for a version you want to keep, Wild for something unexpected.
Generate and compare
Listen to each returned version and note what each one does better than the others.
Iterate with one change
Adjust one part of the style line, add an exclusion, or extend the strongest version.

Style recipes you can copy

A style recipe is a short line of genre, tempo, instruments and texture. Paste one into the style field, change a word or two, and generate. These are starting points to adapt, not presets that lock in a result.

Lo-fi: lo-fi hip-hop, 75 bpm, dusty drums, jazzy electric piano chords, vinyl crackle
House: deep house, 122 bpm, warm sub bass, shuffled hats, filtered chords
Orchestral: cinematic orchestral, slow build, low strings, French horns, timpani hits
Synthwave: synthwave, 100 bpm, gated drums, analog bass arpeggio, bright lead
Acoustic: fingerpicked acoustic guitar, brushed snare, upright bass, intimate
Metal: melodic metal, double-kick drums, chugging rhythm guitars, soaring lead
Jazz: small-group jazz, walking bass, ride cymbal, muted trumpet, late night
Ambient: ambient, evolving pads, soft textures, no percussion

Random ideas and happy accidents

If you are not sure what you want, under-specify on purpose. A prompt like "strange but catchy" on the Wild profile, or two genres that rarely meet, tends to produce material you can then steer. Keep anything interesting, even if it is not usable yet, and develop it later with the cover or extend tools.

In Custom mode the variation control sets how different the returned versions are from each other, so a high setting gives you a wider spread to choose from.

Tempo, key and energy

You can write a tempo or a key into the style line, such as "92 bpm, D minor". The result often leans toward it, but treat both as targets and measure the result in your own software when exact values matter.

Energy is easier to steer with words than with numbers. "Builds slowly", "drops out before the last chorus" and "stays flat and steady" describe arrangement moves that the model responds to well.

Leaving things out

The exclude styles field removes elements you do not want, such as "no autotune", "no saxophone" or "no trap hats". Subtracting one element is often faster than rewriting the whole prompt. For music without singing, set lyrics to Instrumental rather than relying on an exclusion.

Electronic, acoustic and orchestral music

Electronic genres respond well to production words: sidechained pads, acid bassline, gated reverb, four-on-the-floor kick, open hats. Acoustic and orchestral music respond to the size of the group and the room: "string quartet in a small hall" sounds very different from "full orchestra in a big hall".

Whatever the genre, set lyrics to Instrumental for anything that will sit under a voice or a picture.

When a specialized tool is better

These tools run on the same generation engine, but their presets and guidance are tuned to a specific job:

Beats for rapping or singing over: the AI beat maker.
Music under a video or podcast: the background music generator.
Scores for scenes, trailers and games: the soundtrack generator.
Songs with lyrics and a lead vocal: the AI song generator.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What genres can the music generator make?

Most recorded genres, from pop, rock and hip-hop to jazz, classical, ambient and regional styles. Mainstream genres with a lot of recorded history come out most convincing; niche styles may need more specific instrument and production words.

Can I set an exact BPM?

You can write a tempo into the style line. The result often lands near it, but it is not locked, so measure it before you sync anything to the track.

Is there a random music generator mode?

There is no separate random button, but short or deliberately vague prompts on the Wild profile work in a similar way, and the variation control in Custom mode widens the differences between versions.

Can it make instrumental music only?

Yes. Set lyrics to Instrumental and the result has no lead vocal. Use exclude styles to remove other elements, such as drums or a particular lead instrument.

Does it work online without installing anything?

AI Song Generator runs in the browser on desktop and mobile. Generation happens in the cloud and finished tracks appear in your library, so you can start on a laptop and listen back on your phone.
