I’ve also generated lyrics that highlight the new features we discussed, like building software from the ground up and the colossal power of the new reasoning engine.

As of February 20, 2026, Google has officially launched a major update to Gemini with the introduction of Create Music, a feature powered by their most advanced audio model yet, Lyria 3.

This update marks a significant shift, moving Gemini beyond text, images, and video into high-fidelity music generation.

🎵 Key Features of “Create Music”

The new tool is designed for “original expression,” focusing on social media soundtracks, personal jingles, and creative storytelling.

Multimodal Input: You can generate music using:
- Text Prompts: Describe a mood, genre, or specific scenario (e.g., “A melancholic indie folk song about a long road trip”).
- Images & Videos: Upload a photo or video (like a sunset or a clip of your pet) and Gemini will compose a track that matches the visual vibe.
Automatic Lyrics: Unlike previous versions, Lyria 3 can now write original lyrics based on your prompt—you no longer need to provide your own.
Nano Banana Integration: Every track comes with custom AI-generated album art created by Google’s Nano Banana image model.
Customization Controls: You can specify:
- Vocals: Choose gender, vocal style (e.g., “choir,” “spoken word”), or go purely instrumental.
- Tempo & Mood: Set the energy levels (e.g., “slow burn,” “driving,” “euphoric”).
- Genres: Supports everything from 90s rap and Latin pop to lo-fi beats and Afropop.

🛠️ How to Access and Use It

The feature is currently rolling out globally for users 18 and older.

Open Gemini: Navigate to the Gemini web app or mobile app.
Select “Tools”: Look for the “Create Music” option (represented by a music note icon) in the tools menu below the prompt box.
Prompt: Enter your description or upload a reference file.
Wait & Export: Within 30–60 seconds, Gemini generates a 30-second high-fidelity track. You can download it as an MP3 (audio) or MP4 (video with cover art) or share it via a direct link.+1

🛡️ Security & Fair Use

Google has implemented several guardrails to ensure the tool is used responsibly:

SynthID Watermarking: Every track contains an inaudible digital watermark. You can actually upload any audio file to Gemini and ask, “Was this created by AI?” and it will check for the SynthID mark.+1
No Mimicry: The model is designed to avoid mimicking specific artists. If you name a famous singer, Gemini will take “broad creative inspiration” from the style but will not replicate their actual voice or copyrighted catalog.+1
Copyright Filters: Built-in filters check outputs against existing content to prevent accidental infringement.

💰 Availability & Limits

Languages: Currently supports English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese.
Pricing: The feature is free for all users, but Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers receive significantly higher daily usage limits.

Writing a prompt for Create Music (powered by Lyria 3) works best when you combine specific musical technicalities with the emotional “vibe” you want.

Since you’re focused on building a business around AI content and professional website development, you might find these prompt structures particularly useful for creating background tracks for technical tutorials or promotional videos.

🛠️ The “Pro-Track” Formula

For the most consistent results, try following this structure:

[Genre/Style] + [Mood/Atmosphere] + [Instrumentation] + [Tempo/Dynamics] + [Lyrical Theme (Optional)]

Example Prompts for Your Projects

For Technical Tutorials: “A clean, minimalist corporate tech track. Professional and focused mood. Features soft analog synthesizers, a steady digital pulse, and sparse piano melodies. Mid-tempo, 110 BPM. No vocals.”
For a Website Promo (e.g., aivideo24.com): “A futuristic, high-energy synthwave anthem. Exciting and innovative vibe. Heavy use of retro-style synthesizers, punchy electronic drums, and a driving bassline. Fast tempo with a build-up in the middle.”
For a Creative “Social” Track: “An upbeat Afrobeat track for a summer party. Joyful and energetic mood. Rhythmic hand claps, bright brass sections, and a groovy bass. Include fun lyrics about weekend adventures and dancing.”

💡 4 Tips for Better Results

Use Adjectives for Texture: Instead of just “Piano,” try “warm upright piano,” “echoing grand piano,” or “glitchy electric piano.”
Describe the “Energy Curve”: You can tell Gemini how the 30 seconds should flow. (e.g., “Starts with a quiet intro and builds to a powerful crescendo at the 20-second mark.”)
Specify Vocal Style: If you want lyrics, specify the voice: “Raspy male soul vocals,” “soft female indie-pop voice,” or even “spoken word narration.”
Upload for Context: Since you’re building websites, try uploading a screenshot of your homepage. Gemini will analyze the colors and layout to compose a “matching” brand sound.

⚖️ A Quick Note on “Artist Style”

As a reminder for your business operations, Gemini will not perfectly clone a specific artist if you name them (e.g., “Make a song like Ed Sheeran”). It will instead use their style as “broad inspiration” to ensure the output remains original and safe from direct copyright claims.
