Google integrates Lyria 3.5 to create AI-generated music
Google is bringing Lyria 3.5 to Gemini to generate music with more expressive vocals and fuller arrangements. The tool lets you choose a genre, vocals, duration, and templates, and is now available globally on the web, in the mobile app, and across several Google services.
Google now lets you create songs with Lyria 3.5, its new music generation model, through the Gemini app and the Gemini API. The system offers more expressive vocals and fuller musical arrangements to produce higher-fidelity tracks.
What you can do in Gemini
The tool is designed so you don't need music production skills. You can describe what you want or choose preset options to define the result:
- Select a music genre.
- Create a track with vocals or an instrumental track only.
- Use templates to get started faster.
- Choose between shorter or longer songs.
The templates cover use cases such as background music, personalized birthday songs, and other everyday needs. You can also request a backing track for a video, a melody for a brand, or a custom ringtone.
The idea is simple: instead of starting with an empty project, you describe the type of music you need and Gemini generates a track from that prompt. For example, you can request a calm instrumental piece to accompany a video or a festive song with lyrics to congratulate someone.
Available in more Google services
Lyria 3.5 is now available to all users globally on the web version of Gemini and in its mobile app. It is also offered in other Google products for different types of users:
- Google Flow Music, for artists and creators working with AI.
- Google AI Studio, for developers and technical professionals.
- Google Vids, Google's video creation tool.
- The Gemini API, which lets you integrate music generation into applications and services.
This expands the use of AI-generated music beyond chat. A developer can add it to an application, while a creator can use it as part of a video without searching for a separate track.
For you, the main change is that creating custom music takes fewer steps and less technical knowledge. The result will still depend on how well you describe the genre, mood, duration, and type of vocals you want.
Lyria 3.5 strengthens Google's push to bring music generation to its everyday products. The next thing to assess is how well it handles more precise requests, such as maintaining a specific structure, offering better control over lyrics, or producing songs ready for commercial use.
