Whether it’s a sunset photo from an El Nido trip or a wayward thought shared while stuck in EDSA traffic, every moment in your life little or grand can now have its own perfect, fitting soundtrack. That’s because Google is launching Lyria 3, a generative music model available directly within Gemini.
Lyria 3 is a digital instrument that gives people a new way to express themselves. By describing an idea or scenario, or uploading a photo, Gemini generates a 30-second, high-quality track with lyrics and cover art that matches exactly what you’re looking for or the vibe you’re chasing. With simply a prompt, you can choose the genre—from upbeat pop to chill acoustic and everything else that’s available—and adjust the tempo, vocals, and style to fit your vision.
Here’s how it works:
Prompt to Play: Describe a vibe as detailed as you can, like “a nostalgic 90s alternative track about a rainy day in Manila.”
Visual inspiration: If you don’t know where to start with a text prompt, you can also upload a photo and let Gemini generate a melody that matches the mood of the image.
Granular Control: Once Gemini gives you the output, you can tweak the vocals or the energy of the track with further prompts until it sounds right.
A good sound track comes from human emotion and experience, and Lyria 3 serves as an exciting and accessible partner in that process. The Philippines has a long history of adopting technology to express themselves. From viral shortform video remixes to visual storytelling, Filipinos are already using AI to showcase their culture and daily lives.
And for many young Filipinos today, AI works best as a collaborator. Lyria 3 provides a safe, simple space to experiment with these ideas, giving "Pinoy creativity" a new set of digital tools. Students can use it to score school projects, while content creators could use it to find unique beats for their videos.
Lyria 3 is now available on Gemini. You can start creating today at gemini.google.com.
