It hears the music like a DJ does.
Most light apps flash when the music gets loud. GlowBop follows the song: the beat, the build, the drop, the breakdown and the one big moment. Live, on any music, with nothing to plug in.
Ten things your lights finally understand
Builds and drops
It feels a build winding up and lands the drop with the wall: a big move, a new look, right on the hit. Not every loud moment, just the real ones.
The beat and bar one
It locks onto the tempo and finds the first beat of the bar, so changes land where a DJ would put them, not halfway through a phrase.
Every part of the song
Intro, verse, chorus, build, drop, breakdown, outro. Each part gets its own feel, and a chorus that comes back gets a fresh twist.
The one real climax
Movie music swells for minutes and peaks once. GlowBop grows the wall through the crescendo and saves the big moment for the true peak.
Song memory
The first time a song plays, GlowBop learns its shape. Next time it already knows where the drops and the climax are, and sets up for them.
What kind of music it is
Rock, hip-hop, Latin, country, jazz, kids songs, soundtracks, Christmas songs: each gets its own looks automatically, and you can correct it once per artist.
The mood
Bright and happy or dark and moody, the colours follow how the song feels.
When the song changes
A new song gets a new look on its own, whether it comes from a playlist, YouTube or your DJ software.
Any app, any speaker
Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, DJ software or a video: it hears what your computer plays. Bluetooth speaker delay is fixed with one slider.
You can take over
Hold Charge the drop to build it yourself, or tap the beat in. When you let go, GlowBop picks the song back up.
