Mubert
AI music API for adaptive in-game audio and royalty-free background music

Overview
Mubert generates infinite, adaptive royalty-free music from text prompts across 200+ moods and genres. Its developer API is designed for embedding music directly in games and apps — generate tracks by mood, BPM, activity, or image input, and stream or download for any in-game scene. Widely used for adaptive game audio, where BGM changes dynamically based on game state.
Best For
- Games needing adaptive, dynamic background music that changes with game state
- Developers wanting a music API rather than a music download service
- Apps and games where static BGM loops feel repetitive
