Moodsnap's Music Discovery App Matches Songs to the Feel of a Photo

— April 26, 2016 — Pop Culture
There are countless ways to find new songs to listen to, but rather than searching by an artist's name or a favorite genre, Moodsnap aims to make music discovery a more seamless process by using images to identify a mood. Moodnsap has users begin their musical journey by selecting a photo that matches their mood. This could include images that convey a cozy coffee shop atmosphere or a wild image of friends that suggests a pre-party setting.

This app provides a meaningful way for brands and musicians to connect images, music and mood for the purpose of storytelling. Moodnsap cleverly sums up its service by saying: "a picture is worth a thousand songs."

Moodnsap is a startup that's currently run by a small creative team out of Nashville.
