What is Moodtrack?

Being able to manage your mood is perhaps the greatest gift that you can give yourself. And what about doing it through music and colour therapy?

Moodtrack is a new brand which explores emotions, sounds and colours’ relationship to enhance and personalise the digital music experience.

Moodtrack is not only a music player, it aims to extend the experience of music beyond sound.

It can match, strength or change users’ mood through coloured therapeutic playlists.

Furthermore, it allows people to express how they feel and to know how the world’s mood changes over time, making it possible to compare places and look for emotional patterns.

Player

Much more than a music player

Moodtrack truly let you discover music by your mood.

The Mood Player allows the automatic generation of a music playlist that matches a user requested mood.

It classifies the media in real time, providing a continuous stream of music that matches or defines your mood.

In fact, you can easily choose to listen to music which matches and strengthens the way you feel, or use it to change your emotional state.

The technology is based on a music analysis software which enables the Mood Player software to recognize various musical characteristics according to moods.

Moreover, coloured mood light animations are visualised on the screen, giving the room the right emotional atmosphere and wrapping the user in a complete “colour&sound therapy�.

Mood Map

How is the world feeling?

See the mood of your friends, city, country, planet, and discover what their Moodtracks are.

Mood Map allows you to find out how people feel around you or in a specific geographic location and which songs they are listening to.

People’s moods are georeferenced and the smart Moodtrack’s server draws a mood map, reflecting the situation in a certain place and making possible to compare areas and look for emotional patterns.

Zoom out to see how the entire world is feeling, or zoom in to find out where people are having a good time near you.

The concept is also applied to the real world.

Answers continually gets calculated statistically and the everchanging median value for a certain place gets projected on screens placed in strategical points of the bigger cities in the world.

Let’s colour the world and make it sound!

Alarm

Start your day in the right mood

Hard day ahead? Why not waking up with a little bit of “energetic” music?

Or do you prefer to lay in bed with “pensive and dreamy” music?

Getting up in the morning is the most important and hardest part of the day, and Moodtrack gets your morning off to a great start.

It wakes you up to your most desired morning mood.

The Mood Alarm is not just a sound alarm clock, it also turns your iPhone into a mood lamp when the alarm triggers, giving your room the right emotional atmosphere for your awakening.

The alarm works also if the App is not running.

How do you want to wake up tomorrow?
