# AI instrumental generator for background music and beats

> AI Song Maker's AI instrumental generator uses MiniMax Music in instrumental mode, so its tracks never have vocals. Describe the genre, mood, tempo, instruments and what the music is for in 10 to 2,000 characters, and download the MP3. Each instrumental costs 10 credits, about $0.09–$0.12. For an exact length, Lyria 3 makes 30-second clips and ElevenLabs Music 60-second tracks, which can also be instrumental when the description asks for no vocals.

Describe the mood, the tempo and the instruments, and get a clean instrumental for a video, a podcast, a game or a study session, with no vocals in the way.

## Music made to sit under your content

- **No vocals, guaranteed**: The instrumental model never sings, so the music never fights a voiceover, a podcast host or game dialogue.
- **Background music for videos**: Vlogs, tutorials, product demos, property tours and travel edits: describe the pace of the edit and the mood.
- **Beats for practice**: Lo-fi, trap, house and boom bap instrumentals for writing sessions, freestyles and content.
- **Scores and ambience**: Cinematic builds, ambient pads and game menu music, described like a film composer's brief.
- **Cheap to iterate**: Each instrumental costs 10 credits, so you can try a few moods before you commit.
- **An MP3 you can edit**: Download the MP3 and cut, fade or loop it in your video editor.

## How to generate an instrumental

1. **Describe the music**: Genre, mood, tempo, instruments and where it plays, for example: warm acoustic background for a cooking video, 100 BPM.
2. **Generate**: The instrumental model is already selected on this page, and the track is made in the background.
3. **Download and edit**: Play it, download the MP3 and fit it to your timeline in any editor.

## AI background music generator: describing the mood

Background music should support the content, not compete with it. Words that help:

- Energy: calm, steady, driving, building
- Density: sparse, minimal or full
- Instruments that stay out of the voice's way, such as piano, pads, light percussion and bass
- Purpose: under a voiceover, between podcast segments, behind a montage

## Background music for videos: matching the edit

Match the tempo to the cutting pace. Slow vlogs and tutorials sit well around 70 to 95 BPM, and fast montages and product reels around 110 to 128 BPM. Name the tempo in the description and the beat follows.

Trim the track to your edit and add fades in the video editor. Keep music a few decibels under the voice so speech stays clear.


## Instrumental music generator or a singing model?

The instrumental model is the only one here that guarantees no vocals, and it sets the length of each track itself. Lyria 3, Lyria 3 Pro and ElevenLabs Music can also play instrumentals when the description asks for no vocals, and they help when you need a set length: 30 seconds with Lyria 3, 60 seconds with ElevenLabs Music.

You may use your instrumentals in videos, podcasts and games under our terms and the model providers' terms. We do not claim ownership of your tracks.
