# What is AI Music?

AI Music Generation is an AI-powered creative workspace that enables you to produce high-quality music tracks from text prompts through natural language instructions. Control every aspect of your music. From model and style to tempo, genre, and duration all within a simple conversational interface.

### **Getting Started with AI Music**

You can create music through prompt-based creation – simply describe the mood, genre, or concept you want, and AI generates a music track based on your instructions.
