TL;DR: radio.civitai.com is live in beta. Tune into community-built radio stations playing AI-generated music on demand, or spin up your own station, pick a DJ voice (or record your own), and let people tune in to you.
Why we're doing this
Music was the obvious next thing. We've been generating images and video on demand for a while now, and people kept asking when audio was going to get the same treatment. Radio is our first answer.
The model is simple: every station is its own little world, shaped by whoever built it. The music is generated on the fly as people listen. The DJ jingles in between are too. No pre-recorded library to dig through, no playlists to maintain. You set the vibe, the station plays it forever.
How it works
Step 1. Open radio.civitai.com and start listening. Browse the stations the community has already built and find one that fits your mood.
Step 2. Spin up your own. Fine-tune every knob yourself, or hit the AI assist and let it fill the settings out for you. Tweak from there until it sounds right.
Step 3. Pick a DJ. Choose from the preset voice list, or record your own and let it intro your tracks between songs.
What's in the beta
Community stations: every station is built and tuned by someone in the community. Tune in to anyone's.
AI-generated music, on demand: songs are generated as listeners hit play, so the queue never runs out.
DJ jingles between tracks: short voice spots between songs, in the voice you pick.
Configurable DJ voice: preset list, or record your own and make the station yours.
Like songs: hit the like button on tracks you love. Stations grow a following the same way creators do.
Where to find it
radio.civitai.com. It's a separate surface for now while we feel out the shape of the bigger feature this is the front edge of.
What's coming next
Radio is the first piece. The bigger picture is that this is the start of Civitai's AI music era, and we're cooking on the rest of it now:
Music LoRAs: train your own. Same idea as image LoRAs, applied to sound.
A Songs section: the music generator already exists. Soon you'll be able to publish what you make into a proper song library, the same way images and models get their own homes.
Promote songs into stations: take a popular song from the library and put it into rotation on your station. Stations stop being closed loops and start sharing the good stuff.
More station controls: deeper tuning, scheduling, the lot.
If you've got opinions about what should land next, tune in, build a station, and tell us what's missing.
Thank you
Every new surface on Civitai gets shaped by the people who show up early and start poking at it. Radio is the same. The stations you build this week are the ones that set the tone for what this becomes.
Tune in. Spin one up. Rock on.
P.S. In response to the press conference I know is coming.... Yes, we are still working on addressing known bugs! We are actually just launched a new section of the site to track known issues and to give updates about our progress on them.
