# ElevenLabs Music Generation
Generate music from text prompts - supports instrumental tracks, songs with lyrics, and fine-grained control via composition plans.
> **Setup, before writing any code:** if `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` isn't set for this project, run `npx -y @elevenlabs/cli@latest onboard init` from the app's folder first and follow what it prints: it signs the user in and stores a key for the project, so nobody copies one by hand. Otherwise see the [Installation Guide](references/installation.md). For JavaScript, use `@elevenlabs/*` packages only.
All examples below use `music_v2_5`, the most advanced generation model. Pass `music_v2` or
`music_v1` only when an older model is explicitly requested.
## Quick Start
### Python
```python
from elevenlabs import ElevenLabs
client = ElevenLabs()
audio = client.music.compose(
prompt="A chill lo-fi hip hop beat with jazzy piano chords",
music_length_ms=30000,
model_id="music_v2_5",
)
with open("output.mp3", "wb") as f:
for chunk in audio:
f.write(chunk)
```
### TypeScript
```typescript
import { ElevenLabsClient } from "@elevenlabs/elevenlabs-js";
import { createWriteStream } from "fs";
