Musixmatch and Runway are partnering to extend the reach of AI-powered media generation by putting generative video directly into the hands of Musixmatch’s community of artists and musicians.

This initiative will allow creators to bring their songs to life through dynamic video content at scale and aligned with their creative visions.

"With AI we are witnessing a new form of creativity that simply put ‘thinks different’. Today, our incredibly talented songwriters and musicians have a new assistant with whom to collaborate when making videos, powered by Musixmatch's unique ability to extract the meaning from lyrics and Runway’s best-in-class generative video models. This will enable more music creators to make videos and drive continued innovation in this space. If this is just day one, I can't wait to see what the future holds." Marco Paglia, Musixmach Chief of Product

“We are thrilled to be able to put Runway’s models and creative experience directly into the hands of Musixmatch’s unique community of artists and musicians,” says Runway CEO Cristobal Valenzuela. “Runway’s models and tools will help these artists expand how they express their creative vision through video, and will help them forge deeper connections with their listeners and audiences around the world.”

Through this partnership, Musixmatch’s community of over 1M artists will have access to Gen-2 and other Runway models to enhance the music listening experience with synchronized lyrics and videos. This makes the generation of lyric music videos faster, more unique and accessible - enabling richer methods of creative expression for artists and their global audiences.
