ElevenLabs Unveils Music V2: A New Era For AI-Driven Music Composition

ElevenLabs introduced Music V2, an updated version of its AI music-generation model designed to support more advanced genre transitions, song structure editing and multilingual audio generation. The release expands the company’s capabilities in AI-generated music production as competition intensifies across the broader generative audio market.

Advanced Genre-Switching Capabilities

According to ElevenLabs, Music V2 can transition between multiple music genres within a single track, including combinations involving opera, heavy metal and rap. Music V2 also supports both vocal and instrumental composition while allowing users to incorporate sound effects and more complex audio arrangements. The updated model replaces the company’s earlier music-generation system, launched approximately 10 months ago.

Enhanced Composition And Customization

Users can create longer-form compositions by generating separate sections, including intros, verses and choruses. Individual parts of a track can also be regenerated through text prompts without modifying the entire composition. ElevenLabs said the model includes improvements involving multilingual generation, vocal flexibility and more detailed arrangement control.

Driving Innovation In The AI Music Landscape

The launch comes as major technology companies continue expanding their presence in AI-generated music and audio tools. Companies including Google, Stability AI and Suno have also introduced systems capable of producing longer and more complex music tracks. Recent developments across the sector have included AI-generated cover songs, section-based editing tools and music video generation features.

Commercial Licensing And Strategic Partnerships

ElevenLabs said Music V2 was trained using licensed data and is approved for commercial use. The company positioned licensing agreements as an important component of its strategy, as legal disputes surrounding copyright and training data continue affecting parts of the AI music industry. Music V2 is currently available through the company’s ElevenCreative platform, while additional music production tools are expected to be integrated into ElevenMusic and the upcoming ElevenAPI service.

Eurobank Wins Two Euromoney Awards Following Cyprus Merger

Eurobank has been named Cyprus’ Best Bank for 2026 by Euromoney, while also receiving the award for Best Bank for Large Corporates at the publication’s latest Awards for Excellence.

Merger Marks A Milestone

The awards recognise the bank’s performance during 2025, a year marked by the completion of the legal merger between Hellenic Bank and Eurobank Cyprus. The transaction created Eurobank Limited, which the group says is now Cyprus’ largest banking and insurance organisation, with assets exceeding €28 billion.

Euromoney’s Awards for Excellence evaluate banks’ performance over the previous calendar year, with this edition covering January 1 to December 31, 2025.

Lending, Customers And Digital Growth

Eurobank said its business lending portfolio expanded by around 17 per cent during 2025, while its customer base grew to more than 710,000 retail clients and 11,500 business customers.

The bank also continued its digital expansion, saying more than 96 per cent of transactions are now completed through digital channels, and most financing applications are submitted via its mobile app.

Expanding International Presence

Eurobank also highlighted the opening of its first representative office in India, describing the move as a step toward strengthening business links between Cyprus and India while supporting Cyprus’ role as a gateway to the European Union for Indian businesses and investors.

According to the bank, Euromoney recognised not only the successful completion of the merger but also its lending growth, digital transformation and contribution to Cyprus’ position as an international business and investment hub.

CEO On The Awards

“The Euromoney awards confirm Eurobank’s strong momentum and the successful implementation of our group’s strategy in Cyprus,” Chief Executive Michalis Louis said.

He said the merger strengthened the bank’s ability to support households, businesses and the wider economy, while highlighting continued investment in digital services and the opening of the representative office in India as key milestones during the year.
