Composed, not played back.

A composer, an orchestra and a room, all running on your iPhone. Nothing streams; the music is written while you listen. Open the Engine view to watch every module and note.

How a soundscape is made.

Follow the signal, from a world to your ears.

01World & soundscape6 worlds

A world and a soundscape.

Each soundscape sets a world’s instruments, a key, a tempo and a form. A fresh starting point makes each performance its own.

  • HushMuted & close
  • FlowFluid & open
  • ClarityClear & bright
  • WarmthWarm & still
  • GlowGolden & soft
  • OrbitDeep & distant

02ComposerA moment ahead

The composer writes.

Harmony, melodies, arpeggios and the bass are written a moment ahead, phrase by phrase, so they develop together instead of looping.

The Engine view’s Clock module: 63.2 BPM, beat 11.94, look-ahead 36 ms.

04Place5 places

Five places for the whole room.

Place shapes the space around every sound at once: how close it feels, how long it rings, where its echoes go.

  • Glass chamber

    Dense and bright, close notes.

  • Great hall

    A natural stage, early echoes.

  • Stone church

    Vast and dark, long stone tails.

  • Starry sky

    Tails rise an octave into light.

  • Fog

    Slow swells that become a bed.

06YouStays on your iPhone

What Raumo listens to.

Raumo adapts to a few things it can know on your iPhone. Everything it learns about your taste stays there.

It follows

  • The part of the dayHome’s greeting and suggestions, and the Drift, Catalog and Nature playlists, follow the hour.
  • What you doRaumo learns from what you skip, keep, add or remove, and from what is still playing when your sleep timer ends. Reset taste lets it start afresh.
  • Your headWith headphones that report their movement, the room turns with you so its sounds stay where you placed them.
  • Your FocusA Focus mode can set Raumo’s suggestions to a mood or a world.

It never asks for

  • Health dataNo heart rate, sleep or activity data is read.
  • Your location or the weatherRaumo does not use them.
  • An accountThere is nothing to sign in to.
  • An internet connectionThe music is composed on your iPhone with sounds included in the app. Only iCloud sync and sharing a link go online.
