Pump Up the Presentation: How to Add Music to Google Slides (and WOW Your Audience!)

Want to take your Google Slides presentations from bland to brilliant? Adding music is a fantastic way to engage your audience and set the perfect mood! While Google Slides doesn't have a built-in music insertion feature *directly*, there's a clever workaround.

**Here's the secret:** Embed audio from Google Drive! First, upload your desired MP3 file to your Google Drive. Make sure the sharing settings are set so 'Anyone with the link' can view it. Then, in Google Slides, go to 'Insert' -> 'Audio'. Select the audio file you just uploaded to Drive.

A little speaker icon will appear on your slide. You can move and resize this icon. In the 'Format options' pane (right side of the screen), you can choose to have the music play automatically, loop, and hide the icon during the presentation.

**Pro Tip:** Choose music that complements your presentation's theme and doesn't distract from your message. Subtle background music often works best! Now go forth and create captivating presentations!
