Artificial intelligence (AI) has arrived to revolutionize various sectors, and music is no exception. Over the past few years, we have witnessed how AI has been gaining ground in content creation, music production, sound quality improvement and music personalization on streaming platforms. While the idea of creating songs with AI might seem like a futuristic fantasy, the reality is that it is already possible today.
Have you ever wondered if an AI can create music that emotionally connects with the listener in the same way a human composition does? Throughout this guide, we look at how AI is changing the music scene, what tools exist to create songs with AI, and how this technology is impacting the music industry. But that’s not all! We tell you step by step how we did to create a song with AI and show you how it turned out.
How does AI song creation work?
Creating songs with AI relies on analyzing and understanding large amounts of musical data. The first step an AI takes is to study a large amount of existing songs to identify musical patterns, structures, melodies and rhythms that make a song successful or popular. To do this, advanced machine learning algorithms are used, which teach the AI to recognize the musical features that are most appealing to the audience.
The process is carried out through language models and neural networks, which are the fundamental pieces for the generation of musical compositions. On the one hand, neural networks, inspired by the way the human brain works, process and analyze information to create new compositions autonomously. AI can generate song lyrics that follow certain styles, musical genres, or even replicate the feeling and emotion to be transmitted.
A fascinating aspect of AI in music is its ability to adjust to different parameters. While it is capable of composing music independently, users can also set certain parameters such as musical style (pop, jazz, rock, etc.), genre, rhythm, and even the emotion the song should convey (happiness, sadness, nostalgia, etc.). The result? A more personalized creation, as the user has control over certain elements of the creative process.
In addition to the autonomous creation of compositions, there are also assisted AI tools that help musicians improve their creations or even suggest changes or variations to existing songs, such as adding instruments, modifying the structure of a melody, or suggesting new lyrics.
Popular tools for creating songs with AI
The big music studios are no longer the only ones that can produce music. Artificial intelligence goes some way to“democratize” the creation of content through different tools. Whether you are a freelance, novice or professional musician, you now have new ways to innovate your work:
Boomy
This tool has gained popularity due to its ease of use. With Boomy, anyone, regardless of their level of experience in music, can create songs in a matter of minutes, as it allows you to automatically generate a complete piece of music. It also offers customization options that allow adjusting the musical style, duration, structure and energy of the song. In addition, users can share their compositions on platforms such as Spotify and YouTube.
Aiva
Aiva is one of the most advanced tools for AI-based music creation. It specializes in composing music for film soundtracks, advertising jingles and video game music. It uses AI to create pieces that emulate the styles of classical and modern composers, giving musicians the ability to generate epic and emotionally powerful compositions within minutes. We recommend this platform especially for film producers, visual media content creators and advertising agencies.
Suno AI / Udio
These two tools focus on creating music with AI-generated voices. Suno AI and Udio are platforms where songs with lyrics and human voice can be generated through artificial intelligence to compose vocal melodies and harmonies. Thanks to this, new possibilities are generated for those who need to create complete songs with customized lyrics without having to hire singers or studio musicians.
Google Magenta
Google Magenta is an open source project that explores how artificial intelligence can be used in music. Through this platform, developers and researchers can experiment with new tools and techniques for music creation. Magenta allows the generation of melodies and chords from input data, and offers an excellent opportunity for those interested in music programming and AI research applied to music.

AI and the future of the music industry
The emergence of artificial intelligence in music raises a crucial question: will AI replace human composers or will it be just another tool in the creative process? It is true that AI has made significant advances in autonomous song creation, but most experts agree that AI will not replace composers. Instead, AI will be integrated into the creative process by helping artists explore new ideas and improve their workflow.
In the music industry, AI is already demonstrating its potential in a number of areas. A common use case is the creation of soundtracks for movies, where it is used to generate compositions that match the emotion and rhythm of the scene. Brands are also using AI for the creation of jingles and advertising music, making it easier to produce content for social media campaigns, TV commercials and more.
In addition, AI-generated music can be used in smaller or personal projects, such as YouTube videos, podcasts or social media content. The ability to create music quickly and adapt it to the specifics of a project is one of the biggest advantages that AI offers.
Although AI is already transforming the way we create and consume music, some artists and producers express concern about the impact of AI on the authenticity of music. However, many agree that AI can be a powerful tool for experimentation and the creation of new forms of music. Rather than replacing musicians, it can complement their work and open up new possibilities in music creation.
