Smooth Music Gallery helps you turn ordinary image galleries into rich, interactive experiences with background music, animated effects, and modern presentation styles.

Whether you are building a landing page, an artist portfolio, a wedding gallery, a travel story, or a product showcase, the plugin gives you an easy way to make galleries feel more alive and memorable.

You can use it in two simple ways:

Gutenberg block for native block editor workflows.
Shortcode Builder for classic editors and third-party page builders.

What you can do with Smooth Music Gallery:

Add your own images and background music in a few clicks.
Choose from ready-made gallery themes to match different styles and moods.
Add animated overlay effects and dynamic background effects for a more engaging look.
Create audio-reactive visuals that move with the music.
Adjust gallery size and slide timing to fit your layout.
Build galleries visually and generate a shortcode for any page or builder.
Use media from the WordPress Media Library or optional Smooth CDN assets.
Optionally serve gallery frontend assets through Smooth CDN.

Perfect for creators, photographers, musicians, agencies, event sites, and anyone who wants a gallery that feels more premium than a standard slider.
