SoundCloud has partnered with ElevenMusic, the AI music generation platform from ElevenLabs.
For the first time, ElevenMusic is enabling creators to publish their music directly beyond its own platform through a new integration with SoundCloud.
With this new integration, creators can experiment and produce music in ElevenMusic, then publish directly to SoundCloud without interrupting their creative workflow.
As part of the partnership, new and existing SoundCloud Artist Pro subscribers can unlock three months of ElevenMusic Pro for free through SoundCloud's Member Benefits programme, giving artists an opportunity to explore new creative tools as part of their existing membership.
The subscription gives artists access to expanded creative capabilities, including up to 1,000 song creations, 500 stem splits, and five custom styles or vocals per month.
"SoundCloud has always been a place where artists experiment, push boundaries, and turn creative ideas into something bigger," said Eliah Seton, CEO of SoundCloud. "Our partnership with ElevenLabs builds on that foundation by connecting new creative tools with the communities where music is discovered and careers take shape. By becoming the first platform to bring ElevenMusic creations directly to fans beyond its own ecosystem, we're opening up new possibilities for artists to experiment, share their work, and build an audience.
“This is just the beginning of what we can accomplish together as we continue exploring how responsibly developed AI can expand creative possibilities while keeping artists at the centre."

"We built ElevenMusic to help more artists create, experiment and reach their fans," said Mati Staniszewski, CEO and co-founder of ElevenLabs. "Music creation and discovery belong together and now, with SoundCloud, that music can reach even more audiences and communities."
“This marks the beginning of a broader collaboration between ElevenLabs and SoundCloud, with both companies exploring new opportunities to bring creative tools and artist communities closer together, opening up more possibilities for how music is created, shared and discovered,” said a statement.
Music published through the integration will be subject to SoundCloud's existing content policies on AI, including applicable ownership and rights requirements.
Tracks published directly from ElevenMusic will also carry platform-specific disclosures identifying ElevenMusic as their creation source, helping provide greater transparency for listeners.
