Mood and Energy Tags
Control emotional tone, atmosphere, intensity, and section dynamics with mood and energy meta tags.
Mood tags tell aimusicfactory what the song should feel like. Energy tags tell it how strongly the track should move. Used together, they shape the emotional arc of the song.

How to Use Mood and Energy Together

[Verse]
[Nostalgic] [Low Energy] [Intimate Atmosphere]

You can also use contrast across sections:

[Melancholic] [Sparse] [Low Energy]
[Pre-Chorus]
[Building Energy] [Tension]
[Chorus]
[Triumphant] [High Energy] [Power Chorus]

[High Energy] [Peaceful] | Use [Peaceful] in the verse and [High Energy] in the chorus |
[Aggressive] [Gentle] | Choose one dominant delivery per section |
[Dark] [Bright] | Use [Bittersweet] or separate the contrast by section |
