Songburst
Free | Freemium | Paid | Audio AI
Overview
Songburst is an AI music generator designed for online content creators who need original background tracks without hiring composers or licensing stock music. You describe what you want — a genre, mood, tempo, or reference — and Songburst generates a custom piece in seconds. Tracks download in WAV or MP3 format, and the platform includes direct export to Spotify and Apple Music for creators who want to release music rather than just use it as background audio. The tool is available as both a web app and a mobile app, making it accessible whether you're at a desktop editing suite or working from your phone. A prompt enhancer feature refines vague descriptions into more specific musical directions, which helps when you know the feeling you want but struggle to describe it technically. The free tier allows a limited number of monthly generations. Paid plans unlock unlimited downloads and higher-quality outputs. For YouTube creators, podcasters, and social media producers who burn through background music, Songburst is a practical alternative to subscription music libraries — the output is original rather than licensed, which removes concerns about copyright strikes on platforms like YouTube.

How It Works
Open Songburst on the web or the mobile app and enter a text description of the music you want. Describe a genre (lo-fi hip hop, cinematic orchestral, upbeat pop), a mood (tense, relaxing, energetic), or a specific use case (podcast intro, YouTube background, workout playlist). If your description is vague, the prompt enhancer suggests refinements that give the AI more direction. Songburst processes the request and generates a track, typically in under a minute. Preview the output in the built-in player. If it's not quite right, regenerate with adjusted prompts or use the customization controls to tweak tempo, instrumentation, or intensity. Once satisfied, download in WAV for maximum quality or MP3 for smaller file size. Creators who want to publish music on streaming platforms can use the Spotify and Apple Music export path directly from Songburst. Generations are saved to your library so you can revisit past tracks.
