环球音乐携手 ElevenLabs 推出 AI 音乐平台
Universal Music Group is launching a new AI-powered platform that will allow users to draw from its catalog of licensed music to create song remixes, mashups, and new takes on tracks, according to an announcement on Thursday. The record label is developing the platform through a multiyear licensing agreement with ElevenLabs, a company that specializes in AI voice and music generation.
环球音乐集团（Universal Music Group）周四宣布，将推出一个全新的 AI 驱动平台。该平台允许用户利用其授权音乐库，创作歌曲混音、串烧以及对曲目的全新演绎。这家唱片公司正通过与专注于 AI 语音和音乐生成的 ElevenLabs 公司签署多年期授权协议来开发该平台。
Artists can choose whether to participate in UMG and ElevenLabs’ upcoming platform, which marks yet another AI deal for the record label. UMG is currently developing an AI music platform with Udio and has struck AI licensing deals with Spotify, Nvidia, and Klay. This week, Suno released its first AI music model trained on licensed songs from Warner Music Group, BMG, and music industry partners.

UMG and ElevenLabs’ partnership will also include the “development of additional products and fan experiences in the months and years to come,” though the press release doesn’t include other details about what this might entail.

The new AI music platform will remain separate from ElevenLabs’ Music API and ElevenMusic generator.
