Music Generation

Generate instrumental music and background tracks using each::sense — the intelligent AI agent that automatically selects the best model for your request.

Quick Start

Requires an each::labs API key. Get one at eachlabs.ai.

Using curl

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Generate a chill lo-fi hip-hop instrumental, 85 BPM, with warm Rhodes piano, vinyl crackle, mellow drum loop, and a soft bass line. 45 seconds long, perfect for a study playlist."}],
    "stream": false
  }'

Using Python (OpenAI SDK)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_EACHLABS_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="eachsense/beta",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Generate a chill lo-fi hip-hop instrumental, 85 BPM, with warm Rhodes piano, vinyl crackle, mellow drum loop, and a soft bass line. 45 seconds long, perfect for a study playlist."}]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

With Reference Image

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": [
              {"type": "text", "text": "Generate instrumental background music that matches the mood and atmosphere of this image. Create a soundscape that a viewer would expect to hear while looking at this scene."},
              {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://example.com/scenic-photo.jpg"}}
            ]
          }
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Images are sent inside messages using the OpenAI multimodal content format. Maximum 4 images per request.

Streaming

Set "stream": true for real-time SSE responses, or "stream": false for complete result in a single response. Streaming is useful for showing progress in UIs; non-streaming is simpler for scripts and automation.

Available Models

Prompt Tips

The Instrumental Prompt Formula

Generate a [genre] instrumental, [BPM] BPM, with [instruments].
[Mood/emotion] feel. [Duration] long. [Use case context].

Mood Keywords

uplifting, melancholic, triumphant, mysterious, relaxing, intense,
dreamy, aggressive, playful, dark, cinematic, nostalgic, epic,
serene, brooding, whimsical, majestic, eerie, warm, ethereal

Dynamic Instructions

Describe how the track should evolve over time:

"Start with solo piano, add strings at 10 seconds,
build to full orchestra by 30 seconds, then
pull back to piano and cello for the ending."

Avoiding Vocals

Be explicit when you want instrumental-only output:

"Generate an instrumental track, no vocals, no singing, no humming"

    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Generate an epic cinematic orchestral instrumental. Starts quiet with a solo cello melody, builds with layered strings and French horns, crescendo with full orchestra, timpani rolls, and crashing cymbals.

      {"role": "assistant", "content": "..."},
      {"role": "user", "content": "Great vibe. Now make a more energetic variation for the action segments. Same instruments but faster at 130 BPM with more percussion. 30 seconds."}
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Common Pitfalls

• Not specifying "instrumental" may produce tracks with vocals. Be explicit: "no vocals."
• Missing BPM leaves tempo to chance. Always include target BPM for consistent results.
• Vague instrument lists like "some music" give generic output. Name specific instruments.
• Duration ambiguity can produce clips that are too short or too long. State duration clearly.
• Ignoring dynamics results in flat tracks. Describe how energy should build and release.
