AI-Driven Song Remixes Now Available for YouTube Shorts Creators

YouTube introduces a new feature for select creators, allowing them to craft unique remixes of existing songs using AI. This feature is part of the Dream Track tool, enabling 30-second personalized tunes for Shorts, transforming original songs into fresh new genres or moods.

YouTube’s just rolled out something pretty cool for a handful of creators: the ability to remix songs with their AI-powered Dream Track tool. Imagine tweaking a track’s vibe or flipping its genre on its head—all while keeping the original vocals and lyrics intact. And yeah, it’s all done in 30-second bursts perfect for Shorts. Plus, they’re making sure the original artists get their shoutouts, right there in the Short and on the audio page, with a clear nod to the AI magic behind it. Dream Track first hit the scene back in November 2023, powered by Google DeepMind’s Lyria model, and was a VIP-only kind of deal for U.S. creators, featuring collabs with big names like John Legend, Charli XCX, and Troye Sivan. Now? It’s open to all U.S. creators. Talk about leveling up the creative playground.
