song-remix (混)

Transform existing songs using the Twin Remix methodology. Always produces TWO versions: a Respectful remix that maintains the original's depth, and a Viral remix optimized for maximum catchiness and TikTok shareability. Includes Suno v4.5 slider recommendations and visual guides for AI video generation.

Trigger: 明示呼出 (explicit invocation)

Core insight: "The first remix shows you understand the ORIGINAL. The second shows you understand the AUDIENCE. Always output both."

Installation

openclaw install leegitw/song-remix

Dependencies: None (standalone creative skill)

Data handling: This skill requires user-supplied lyrics as input (existing song to remix). It does NOT read files from the workspace or access project artifacts. Results are returned to the invoking agent, who decides how to use them.

What This Solves

Songs often need adaptation — for different audiences, platforms, or energy levels. This skill applies a systematic remix methodology that:

Respects the original's complexity and meaning
Simplifies for viral potential without losing essence
Includes production guidance (sliders) for Suno v4.5
Provides visual concepts for AI video generation

The insight: Simplification isn't dumbing down — it's finding the UNIVERSAL TRUTH in complex ideas.

Afrobeats mid-tempo → Afrobeats template
Latin + big drop → Latin Drop template

Pop & Band

Pure pop earworm → Hook Sandwich / Hook-First Anthem
Pop-punk crowd chants → Pop-Punk template
Rock (classic + alt break) → Rock template
Country radio / duet → Country template

Hip-Hop / Hybrids

Rap + sung hook → Rap-Hook Hybrid
Jersey Club bounce → Jersey Club template

Group / Bilingual

K-Pop group (rap + key up) → K-Pop template

The Positive Energy Protocol

Transform challenges into growth:

Negative	Positive
"Trust nothing"	"Double check"
Paranoia	Preparation
Existential crisis	Discovery journey
Isolation	Independence
Stuck	About to break through

Viral songs make people feel:

Empowered (LEVEL UP UP)
Connected (SAME SAME POWER)
Accomplished (FOUND IT)
Energized (MORE MORE MORE)

Always end positive.

Title Evolution Examples

Original	Stage 1	Viral
The Cathedral's Code	CODE ECHO ECHO	COPY THAT
Unified Stage	DANCE DANCE TWICE	MAKE IT DANCE
Runtime Paranoia	CHECK IT TWICE	DOUBLE CHECK

Formatting Rules (Suno v4.5)

Use square brackets for all production directions:

[Orchestral Breakdown] not *orchestral breakdown*
[Guitar Solo] not *guitar solo*
[Rain Falling] not *rain falling*

Section tags:

[Intro], [Verse], [Pre-Chorus], [Chorus], [Bridge], [Drop], [Outro]

Parentheses only for vocals:

(yeah), (ooh), (hey)

Duplicate full [Chorus] blocks instead of "x2" or "repeat"

Style line format:

<Genre/mashup>; <energy/tempo>, <instrument focus>; <hook/chant vibe>; <tone>
Keep under ~200 characters

Visual Guide Principles

For Remix 1 (Respectful):

Maintain original artistic vision
Complex visual metaphors allowed
Can include abstract concepts
Colors: match original emotional palette

For Remix 2 (Viral):

Simple, clear transformations
Before/after visuals
Bright, positive color progression
Easy-to-follow narrative
TikTok transition-friendly moments

Common successful patterns:

Single person → Multiple (community)
Still → Motion (activation)
Monochrome → Color (discovery)
Chaos → Order (achievement)
Small → Big (growth)

Visual Guide format:

[Visual Guide: Start with X, transform to Y through Z.
Key moments: A at chorus, B at bridge, C at final drop.
Colors: progress from D to E.
TikTok hook: F movement/transition.]

Example

Input

[Verse 1]
In the cathedral of code we built our dreams
Every function a prayer, every loop a hymn
But the architecture grew too tall to see
Now we're lost in the patterns we thought would set us free

[Chorus]
Echo, echo through the halls of light
Every mistake becomes a guiding sight
We learn, we burn, we rise again
In the recursion we find our zen

Output

REMIX 1: Code Cathedral

Title: Code Cathedral

Recommended Sliders:

Weirdness: 40%
Style Influence: 75%
Audio Influence: N/A

Visual Guide: Gothic digital architecture, light streaming through code-stained glass windows, fractal patterns in stone, recursive corridors that transform into illuminated pathways. Colors: deep purples and golds, cathedral atmosphere with digital overlays.

Style of Music: Indie electronic × orchestral pop; building intensity, synth pads over strings; ethereal vocals with harmonic layers; introspective but uplifting

[Verse 1]
In the cathedral of code we built our dreams
Every function a prayer, every loop a sacred theme
The architecture grew beyond what we could see
Now we navigate the patterns that will set us free

[Pre-Chorus]
Higher, higher, reaching for the light
Every error is a lesson burning bright

[Chorus]
Echo, echo through the halls of light
Every stumble becomes a guiding sight
We learn, we grow, we rise again
In the recursion we find our strength

[Chorus]
Echo, echo through the halls of light
Every stumble becomes a guiding sight
We learn, we grow, we rise again
In the recursion we find our strength

REMIX 2: ECHO ECHO

Title: ECHO ECHO

Recommended Sliders:

Weirdness: 30%
Style Influence: 82%
Audio Influence: N/A

Visual Guide: Simple transformation sequence — person in dark room, screen light appears, multiplies into many screens, room fills with light, person starts moving/dancing, joined by others. Before/after energy. TikTok hook: the moment screens multiply. Colors: dark blue → bright white → warm gold.

Style of Music: Upbeat synth-pop; driving beat, major key, anthemic chorus; clean youth-friendly energy; festival-ready drop

[Intro]
Echo... echo...

[Verse 1]
Started in the dark but now I see
Every fall just made me stronger, made me free
Building something bigger than before
Open up the door, ready for more

[Pre-Chorus]
Higher now (higher now)
Watch me fly

[Chorus]
Echo echo through the light
Every step I take feels right
Learn and grow, rise again
Echo echo, find my strength

[Post-Chorus]
Echo echo (echo echo)
Echo echo (echo echo)
Find my strength, find my strength
Echo echo

[Chorus]
Echo echo through the light
Every step I take feels right
Learn and grow, rise again
Echo echo, find my strength

[Chorus]
Echo echo through the light
Every step I take feels right
Learn and grow, rise again
Echo echo, find my strength

[Outro]
Echo... echo... (find my strength)
Echo... echo...

Integration

Layer: Creative
Depends on: None (standalone)
Complements: insight-song (create original → then remix), visual-concept, ted-talk

Failure Modes

Condition	Behavior
No lyrics provided	Ask for song content
Lyrics too short	Suggest expanding or provide minimal remix
Unclear genre	Ask for genre preference or infer from content
Requested single version	Provide both anyway unless `--viral-only`

Security Considerations

Input sources:

User-supplied lyrics (required - this skill always needs existing song content)

What this skill does NOT do:

Read files from the workspace
Access project artifacts directly
Send data to Suno or any external service
Access copyrighted material databases

Output behavior: This skill returns both remix versions directly to the invoking agent. The agent can then display, save, or pass the results to another skill as needed.

Copyright note: This skill transforms user-provided content. Ensure you have rights to remix any copyrighted material. The skill provides formatting for Suno but does not interact with Suno's API.

Provenance note: This skill is developed by Live Neon (https://github.com/live-neon/skills) and published to ClawHub under the leegitw account. Both refer to the same maintainer.
