The 'Fast'/embedding model, unless the input is absolutely clear, snaps to the closest alternative.

Here's the song it created when I asked Gemini Flash to do it!

It called it, "Cobalt Kinetic" and explained that, "A high-velocity Mixolydian engine fueled by syncopated electronic pulses and glitchy accents, evoking the iridescent blur of hidden magic weaving through a midnight skyscraper canyon."

Here's the audio: https://vocaroo.com/1hjtPAxLWqyA

It's just that the 'Fast' model picks up from a library of existing tracks using a small embedding model.

If you're really curious, you could try the 'Custom LLM' feature - specifically 'Gemini Flash'. Here's the track it created when I gave it the same input.

It titled it, "In the mood for country cowboy-ish music played for someone like John Wick bleeding out on a cold, snow-covered park bench." and here's the justification it came up with, "A weary, grit-laden Dorian lament for a fallen gunslinger, blending the cold isolation of vast reverb with the sharp, intimate pluck of a final, fading heartbeat."

It titled it, "Throne of the Eternal Night" and here's the justification it came up with, "A glacial, minor-key procession of heavy brass hits and deep sub-pulses, evoking the suffocating grandeur of an ancient, blood-soaked dynasty ending in shadow."

BTW - we used Gemma 270m model - not the 1B model. It's sheerly the size - I wanted to see if I could get a really, really tiny LLM to generate coherent music. Tbh, it didn't quite work as well as I expected. It barely beats a randomly generated track.

In fact, the 'fast' model (literally embedding lookup over a pre-generated library of music ... generated using Best-of-N on Gemini Flash) beats nearly everything - including Gemini Flash, Claude Opus, Gemma models.
