Jacob Collier's Influence on MusicFX DJ's Evolution
Last summer, we kicked off Lab Sessions, a cool initiative where we gather experts from all walks of life—artists, academics, scientists, and entrepreneurs—to dive into the world of AI and help shape our products. And guess what? We've got something fresh for you today! We're thrilled to announce our latest session, teaming up with none other than Jacob Collier, the six-time Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist.
Over the past year, Jacob's been jamming with Google DeepMind and Google Labs to refine MusicFX DJ, a nifty tool that lets you be the maestro of an AI-driven music session. By blending different prompts like instruments, genres, and even emotions, MusicFX DJ empowers anyone to guide a seamless stream of music, perfect for sparking new ideas or sampling in your own tracks. And the best part? These updates to MusicFX DJ are rolling out as we speak!
Jacob shared that his creative journey often kicks off with a simple question: *Well, what am I dreaming up today?* "That's always a solid starting point for anything you're making," he says. "Once you answer that, you tap into this flow state—and once you're in that flow, you're off to the races."
His collaboration with the team focused on enhancing that flow state, making creative expression and inspiration more accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or skill level. Jacob played a key role in developing a more intuitive set of controls and a revamped user interface that opens up advanced features for budding and seasoned musicians alike.
MusicFX DJ’s new user interface provides more capabilities to shape music in real-time
His insights were crucial in shaping the team's approach to providing creative control and tools that foster musical collaboration and artistic innovation. With these new controls, users can tweak the tempo and mood of the music, allowing for both intentional and unexpected transformations.
Users can now share up to 60 seconds of their MusicFX DJ sessions with others, who can use it as a starting point to create something new.
The team also introduced a feature where you can share a snippet of your MusicFX DJ session with others, giving them a chance to remix and build upon your work. You can watch a 60-second playback of a performance and then take the reins, exploring new creative paths from your initial creation.
Our partnership with Jacob underscores the value of experimentation in the creative process and how collaborating closely with artists can push the limits of what's possible with creative tools.
At Google Labs, we're all about working hand-in-hand with artists, technologists, and other creatives to co-create and develop cutting-edge technology. Head over to labs.google to check out our products and tools, follow us on @googlelabs, and join the conversation on our Discord at discord.gg/googlelabs. You can catch all of our Lab Sessions at labs.google/sessions.

जैकब कोलियर का म्यूजिकएफएक्स डीजे के विकास पर प्रभाव बहुत ही चौंकाने वाला है! वह जिस तरह से एआई को संगीत रचना में एकीकृत करते हैं, वह अगले स्तर का है। मैं अपने ट्रैक्स को रीमिक्स करने के लिए इस ऐप का उपयोग कर रहा हूँ और यह ऐसा है जैसे मेरी जेब में एक संगीत प्रतिभा हो। शुरुआती लोगों के लिए इसे थोड़ा और उपयोगी बनाना चाहिए। अगली बार क्या आएगा, इसका इंतजार नहीं कर सकता! 🚀
