Generate song lyrics and music from text prompts using OpenAI and Fal.ai Minimax
Spark your creativity instantly in any chatβturn a simple prompt like "heartbreak ballad" into original, full-length lyrics and a professional AI-generated music track, all without leaving your conversation.
π What This Template Does
This chat-triggered workflow harnesses AI to generate detailed, genre-matched song lyrics (at least 600 characters) from user messages, then queues them for music synthesis via Fal.ai's minimax-music model. It polls asynchronously until the track is ready, delivering lyrics and audio URL back in chat.
- Crafts original, structured lyrics with verses, choruses, and bridges using OpenAI
- Submits to Fal.ai for melody, instrumentation, and vocals aligned to the style
- Handles long-running generations with smart looping and status checks
- Returns complete song package (lyrics + audio link) for seamless sharing
π§ Prerequisites
- n8n account (self-hosted or cloud with chat integration enabled)
- OpenAI account with API access for GPT models
- Fal.ai account for AI music generation
π Required Credentials
OpenAI API Setup
- Go to platform.openai.com β API keys (sidebar)
- Click "Create new secret key" β Name it (e.g., "n8n Songwriter")
- Copy the key and add to n8n as "OpenAI API" credential type
- Test by sending a simple chat completion request
Fal.ai HTTP Header Auth Setup
- Sign up at fal.ai β Dashboard β API Keys
- Generate a new API key β Copy it
- In n8n, create "HTTP Header Auth" credential: Name="Fal.ai", Header Name="Authorization", Header Value="Key [Your API Key]"
- Test with a simple GET to their queue endpoint (e.g., /status)
βοΈ Configuration Steps
- Import the workflow JSON into your n8n instance
- Assign OpenAI API credentials to the "OpenAI Chat Model" node
- Assign Fal.ai HTTP Header Auth to the "Generate Music Track", "Check Generation Status", and "Fetch Final Result" nodes
- Activate the workflowβchat trigger will appear in your n8n chat interface
- Test by messaging: "Create an upbeat pop song about road trips"
π― Use Cases
- Content Creators: YouTubers generating custom jingles for videos on the fly, streamlining production from idea to audio export
- Educators: Music teachers using chat prompts to create era-specific folk tunes for classroom discussions, fostering interactive learning
- Gift Personalization: Friends crafting anniversary R&B tracks from shared memories via quick chats, delivering emotional audio surprises
- Artist Brainstorming: Songwriters prototyping hip-hop beats in real-time during sessions, accelerating collaboration and iteration
β οΈ Troubleshooting
- Invalid JSON from AI Agent: Ensure the system prompt stresses valid JSON; test the agent standalone with a sample query
- Music Generation Fails (401/403): Verify Fal.ai API key has minimax-music access; check usage quotas in dashboard
- Status Polling Loops Indefinitely: Bump wait time to 45-60s for complex tracks; inspect fal.ai queue logs for bottlenecks
- Lyrics Under 600 Characters: Tweak agent prompt to enforce fuller structures like [V1][C][V2][B][C]; verify output length in executions
Generate Song Lyrics and Music from Text Prompts using OpenAI and Falai Minimax
This n8n workflow automates the process of generating song lyrics and music ideas based on a user's text prompt. It leverages AI models to create creative content, providing a structured output that can be used for further music production.
What it does
This workflow orchestrates the following steps:
- Listens for Chat Messages: It starts by receiving a chat message, likely containing a text prompt for song generation.
- Edits Fields: The incoming chat message is processed and transformed, likely extracting the core prompt or setting up variables for subsequent AI calls.
- Routes Based on Condition: A
Switchnode is present, indicating that the workflow can branch based on certain conditions. While the specific conditions are not detailed in the JSON, it suggests different processing paths might exist. - Waits (Optional Delay): A
Waitnode is included, which can introduce a delay in the workflow, potentially to manage API rate limits or to provide a pause before the next steps. - Generates Content with AI Agent: An
AI Agentnode (likely a LangChain agent) is used to process the prompt. This agent is designed to understand the request and coordinate with other AI models or tools to fulfill it. - Utilizes OpenAI Chat Model: The
AI Agentinteracts with anOpenAI Chat Modelto generate creative text, which would be the song lyrics or conceptual ideas. - Parses Structured Output: A
Structured Output Parseris used to ensure the AI-generated content is formatted into a consistent, machine-readable structure (e.g., JSON), making it easier to consume by subsequent steps or applications. - Makes HTTP Request: An
HTTP Requestnode is included, which strongly suggests that the generated lyrics or music ideas are then sent to an external service or API. Given the directory name, this could be an interaction with a service like Falai Minimax for further music generation or processing.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
- OpenAI API Key: For the
OpenAI Chat Modelnode. This credential needs to be configured in n8n. - External Service API (e.g., Falai Minimax): The
HTTP Requestnode implies interaction with an external service. You will need an API key and endpoint for that service (e.g., Falai Minimax) if you intend to use it for music generation. - Chat Application Integration: The
Chat Triggernode requires integration with a chat platform (e.g., Slack, Telegram, Discord) from which the initial prompts will be received.
Setup/Usage
- Import the workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
- Configure Credentials:
- Set up your OpenAI API Key as a credential in n8n.
- Configure any necessary credentials for the external service targeted by the
HTTP Requestnode (e.g., Falai Minimax API key).
- Configure Chat Trigger: Set up the
Chat Triggernode to listen for messages from your desired chat platform. - Review and Customize:
- Examine the
Edit Fields (Set)node to understand how the incoming chat message is processed and adjust as needed. - Review the
Switchnode's conditions and outputs. If specific branching logic is required for different types of prompts, configure it here. - Inspect the
AI AgentandOpenAI Chat Modelnodes. You might want to fine-tune the prompts or model parameters to get the desired creative output. - Adjust the
Structured Output Parserif the output format needs to be different. - Configure the
HTTP Requestnode with the correct URL, headers, and body for the external service you are targeting (e.g., Falai Minimax).
- Examine the
- Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow to start processing chat prompts.
