Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the music industry not by replacing artists, but by amplifying creativity. Over the past few weeks, I dove into this new wave by experimenting with tools like Suno, Runway ML, Sora, and Canva. The result? Twenty original AI-generated songs, some of which are on repeat in my own playlist.


Let’s explore how you can make music with AI, what tools I used, and how I combined everything into a finished multimedia experience.


Step 1: Generating Music with Suno.com


Suno makes it incredibly easy to go from idea to melody. Whether you want a rock anthem, lo-fi beat, or dreamy instrumental, you just enter a description, choose your vibe, and Suno composes a full track vocals and all.


I experimented with a variety of inputs:


  • “Epic retro synthwave instrumental”

  • “Love ballad in the style of 90s R&B”

  • “Cyberpunk chase scene soundtrack”


Suno’s outputs were surprisingly polished. It created not just catchy melodies but meaningful lyrics, full verses, and chorus structures. While it's not the same as writing a song from scratch, it does feel like collaborating with a tireless digital producer.


Step 2: Creating Visuals with Runway ML and Sora


Next, I took the audio and created video content using Runway ML’s Gen-2 and OpenAI's Sora. These tools let you bring scenes to life just from text prompts, making it perfect for music videos.


For example:


  • A soft acoustic song got a dreamy, animated forest backdrop using Runway

  • A darker synth track paired beautifully with Sora’s cinematic futuristic cityscape


Combining the music with visuals gave the songs emotional weight, something every musician knows is crucial.


Step 3: Putting It Together in Canva


With music and visuals ready, I used Canva to merge it all into engaging short-form content. Canva’s drag-and-drop interface made it simple to align clips, add subtle transitions, and export in high resolution for multiple platforms.


Whether you’re editing a vertical clip for TikTok or a widescreen video for YouTube, Canva gives you the polish needed to compete with major production houses.


Final Thoughts and Results


This isn’t a mindless automation process. It’s still a creative journey that demands your aesthetic choices, understanding of pacing, lyrics, and tone. What’s changed is how accessible the tools are and how fast ideas become reality.


I generated around 20 tracks, both instrumental and with lyrics. Some of them were so good, I honestly couldn’t stop listening to them. Each one had its own feel, and I plan to embed one of my favorite videos here soon for you to see.


Suno has emerged as a clear leader in this space and it shows. The quality, speed, and versatility make it a must-try for anyone curious about AI music.


Music, as we know it, has changed forever. But creativity remains the human spark driving it.
