# Remix your song into reggaeton with AI | Lyro Music > Remix your song into reggaeton with Lyro’s Restyle tool: the dembow rhythm, a deep bass and Latin percussion. The original stays as it was. Source: https://lyromusic.com/remix-into/reggaeton # Remix your song into reggaeton To remix a song into reggaeton, pick it in your Lyro library or upload your own file, open Restyle and describe the new sound in a few words, for example “Reggaeton version: dembow drums, punchy kick, rimshot snare, sub bass, plucked synth”. Lyro’s studio tools rebuild the whole track in that style and add it as a new version; the original stays as it was. A song made on Lyro keeps its own lyrics. For your own file, paste the lyrics, or the words are lost. It costs one credit per started minute, with a minimum of 2 credits.

If your song is far from the usual reggaeton tempo in the table, the remix can come out feeling half-time or rushed. ## How it goesThree steps - **Pick the song** Choose a track from your Lyro library, or upload your own file and confirm you have the rights to it. - **Describe Reggaeton** Open Restyle and write the new style, for example: Reggaeton version: dembow drums, punchy kick, rimshot snare, sub bass, plucked synth. For your own file, paste the lyrics. - **Set how far it goes, then listen** The “How far from the original” slider sets how much changes. The result is a new version beside the old one. ## Style words to pasteIn English, as the Style box reads them Reggaeton version: dembow drums, punchy kick, rimshot snare, sub bass, plucked synth ## Tips for this genre Reggaeton is recognised by the dembow drum pattern, a kick on every beat with snares on the 3+3+2 accents, plus a round sub bass, a plucked synth or Latin guitar hook and a half-sung, half-rapped vocal. Put those sounds in your description: - Choose the hook instrument, such as a plucked synth, nylon guitar or piano, and ask for a simple repeating motif. - Ask for a melodic vocal with call-and-response ad-libs and state the language twice, for example "sung in Spanish, native Spanish pronunciation". ### Where the limits are - The voice in a remix is made again by the model, so it is not your exact voice. To keep your own vocal, use a beat for your vocal instead. - Without the lyrics, a remix of your own file loses the words; a Lyro song sends its own. - The remix keeps your song’s tempo; if reggaeton usually runs much faster or slower, expect a half-time or double-time feel. - Remixing a song that is not yours needs the rights to it; Lyro asks you to confirm them for your own files. ## Questions ### Will the reggaeton remix keep my lyrics? A song made on Lyro keeps its own lyrics automatically. For your own file, paste the lyrics into Restyle; without them the remix loses the words. ### Will it keep my voice? No. The remix is made again by the model, voice included, so it will not be your exact voice. If you want your own vocal over a reggaeton track, use [a beat for your vocal](https://lyromusic.com/beat-for-vocals) instead. ### What should I write to get reggaeton? Name the sounds: “Reggaeton version: dembow drums, punchy kick, rimshot snare, sub bass, plucked synth”. Write "dembow drum pattern" by name, since it is the single most important phrase in the prompt. ### What does a remix cost? One credit per started minute of the song, with a minimum of 2 credits; a three-minute song costs 3 credits. The original stays in your library, and failed remixes are refunded automatically. ### What is close to reggaeton?
