Making Music with AI Is Easier Than You Think

Writing songs used to require music theory, instruments, and a recording studio. Today, AI lets anyone create a complete song with lyrics in minutes.

Popular songwriting tools

Suno is a very popular tool because it creates complete songs, with both music and vocals, from a short description, and it supports Thai lyrics.

Step 1: Write the lyrics

Have ChatGPT help write the lyrics by giving it the topic, mood, and structure, for example: "Write a contemporary luk thung song about missing home in Isan, with Verse, Chorus, Verse, Chorus, Bridge, Chorus." Then tweak the words so they rhyme and are easy to sing.

Step 2: Define the style

Specify the genre, tempo, instruments, and vocals, for example: "Thai pop ballad, piano and acoustic guitar, warm female vocal, 80 BPM"

Step 3: Generate and choose

Generate several versions and pick your favorite. If some sections aren't great, you can extend the song or regenerate just those parts.

Example style prompts

Cafe music: "lofi chill, soft piano, rain sounds, relaxing, instrumental"
Contemporary luk thung: "Thai luk thung pop, phin and khaen, upbeat, male vocal"
Children's song: "happy children's song, ukulele and xylophone, cheerful, simple melody"

Common song structure
