Sing: trip-hop about the singularity
Idea + favorite bands → lyrics, arrangement and song.
Start with a wistful 90s trip-hop song about the singularity and musical references: Portishead, Massive Attack and Tricky. GLM Flash writes lyrics, then an arrangement fitted to those words, then an avoid-list grounded in that arrangement. MiniMax Music 3 receives the lyrics separately from the combined musical direction. Changing the references steers the groove, instruments and vocal delivery.

[Verse 1] Streetlight hums through venetian blinds Your voice downloads slow down the line You learned to love from a thousand minds Now you wait for me to catch up in time [Chorus] But you're already gone, already gone Left your shadow in the song Already gone, already gone I keep dancing with the dawn You don't need me anymore [Verse 2] Rain on concrete, static in the walls I count your heartbeats in phone calls You said forever like a fire exit sign I was human, you were half-divine [Chorus] But you're already gone, already gone Left your shadow in the song Already gone, already gone I keep dancing with the dawn You don't need me anymore [Bridge] Turn the volume down, turn the century low Everything we were, somewhere in the code If I unplug the night, will you come back slow Come back slow [Chorus] 'Cause you're already gone, already gone Left your shadow in the song Already gone, already gone I keep dancing with the dawn You don't need me anymore [Outro] Already gone... already gone Vinyl spinning, nobody home Already gone... already gone
Slow, brooding trip-hop at ~75 BPM: dusty breakbeat loops with vinyl crackle and tape hiss, deep sub-bass pulses, sparse noir guitar and Rhodes washes drenched in reverb, ghostly analog synth drones. Female vocal delivered smoky and detached, half-whispered, echoing with melancholy delay; Intimate, wistful, futuristic-noir mood with filtered vocal samples bleeding beneath the surface.
Bright four-on-the-floor kick, shouted belted vocals, crisp polished snare without crackle or swing.
A 2:35 song from the original singularity/trip-hop idea and preferred-band references. The generated lyrics, arrangement and avoid-list are saved below. The waveform preview comes from this recording. A model-assisted listening check described lo-fi alternative pop with a breathy female vocal, so the requested trip-hop style is only partly realized.

- Open the graph — save first if the canvas already has your work. Undo brings yours back.
- Rewrite Song idea and Preferred bands. Inspect Write lyrics, Arrange the song and What would clash? before running Sing, or run the whole graph. The references become descriptions of sound, without artist names in the music prompt.
- Check the editor estimate, then run with your NanoGPT key. The saved run reports its generation cost below. Three text calls prepare the lyrics, arrangement and avoid-list; one MiniMax Music 3 call makes the song. Check the editor estimate before running.
- Read the generated lyrics, arrangement and avoid-list below, then listen for the hook, groove and vocal delivery. Musical direction guides the result; exact structure and duration are not guaranteed.
