What We Do


We help music, audio, and media tech companies build AI-powered tools — from generative music engines and voice AI agents to music information retrieval systems.

We work with a handful of carefully selected clients to give them all the attention they need.

We develop damn fast. We are the world leader in AI music. We support you every step of the way — from ideation to implementation, all the way to launch. You sit back and relax.

Depending on your needs, we can easily scale the development team with the best AI music engineers and researchers drawn from the largest AI music talent pool in the world: The Sound of AI community.

  • LLMs for music
  • Deep learning systems for audio and music
  • Music recommender systems
  • Music search and retrieval
  • Music classification (emotion, genre, instruments, etc.)

Hi, I’m Valerio Velardo


I’m the mastermind behind The Sound of AI. I live and breathe AI music — and have been doing so for the past 15 years.

I hold a PhD in AI music, and I founded a generative AI music company called Melodrive, which I sold in 2020.

In my career, I’ve led numerous AI music teams, built R&D departments from scratch, and consulted for dozens of music and audio tech companies.

I also started The Sound of AI, the largest AI music community out there, with over 60,000 members across YouTube and Slack. My YouTube lectures on AI music have reached millions of viewers.

I’m currently an adjunct professor of Generative AI Music at the Music Technology Group (University Pompeu Fabra), where I also co-organize the Generative AI Music Workshop.

On top of that, I launched the first startup accelerator focused entirely on AI music, called The Sound of AI Accelerator.

Currently, I’m working on AI Music Revolution, a book for the general public, coming out with UC Press in early 2026.
