Music for every mood · Unwind
Music to unwind.
After work, after the gym, after the news — music that meets you where you are and eases you down.
What MeloTune plays to unwind
Relaxation is low energy with warm or neutral emotion. Jumping straight to the softest thing rarely works when you're wound up, which is why MeloTune can take you there in steps. Its Relaxation presets:
| PRESET | GENRE | EMOTION · ENERGY | WHEN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wind Down | Smooth Jazz | 68 · 32 | the first half hour home |
| Stress Reset | Classical | 55 · 30 | when the day was a lot |
| Still Horizon | New Age | 45 · 15 | almost sleep |
| Breezy Guitar | Classical Guitar | 41 · 31 | quiet, unhurried evenings |
The Journey destinations Wind down, Calm warmth and Soften chart a route from your current mood to the calm one over 20, 40 or 60 minutes.
How MeloTune gets there
MeloTune is a mood music player: every track it can reach is placed on a 400-mood map — a 20×20 grid of emotion (how positive) and energy (how activated), across 200+ genres — built from how the music actually feels, not from a prompt to a language model. You tell it where you are, or where you want to be, and it curates a station that fits, then plays it through Apple Music, Spotify Premium or your local library.
- Presets — one tap on a mood archetype (the tables on these pages are the app's own presets, with their exact emotion · energy targets).
- Journeys — say where you want to end up (calmer, lifted, focused) and pick 20, 40 or 60 minutes; the whole route is charted first and handed to your music app as one queue, so it plays through with the phone locked.
- Ready For You — the pick MeloTune has learned for you is playing when you open the app, and each pick says what it is for and how sure it is (
CALM · SURE,ENERGIZE · LEARNING). - Dial and voice — set emotion and energy directly, or say "something calmer" / "play focus music".
Learning happens on your phone; nothing about your listening leaves it. Curate as much as you like with no account; MeloTune Premium keeps the music going ($3.99/month or $29.99/year, 7-day free trial).
Questions people ask
What music helps you unwind and relax?
Low-energy music with warm or neutral emotion: smooth jazz, classical, new age, classical guitar. MeloTune's Relaxation presets sit at emotion 41–68 and energy 15–32; a Journey to 'Wind down' or 'Calm warmth' walks you there over 20–60 minutes instead of switching abruptly.
Is there a music app that calms you down gradually?
MeloTune's Journeys are built for exactly that: you name the destination (Wind down, Calm warmth, Soften) and the length, it charts the route from where you are now, and the music descends a step at a time — a slow tide, not a skipping DJ.
Which music service do I need?
Any of Apple Music, Spotify Premium, or your own local music files. MeloTune curates; your music app plays.
Does it remember what calms me?
Yes, on your phone. Ready For You learns which moods you keep returning to and which stations you actually play, and has a pick waiting when you open the app — labelled with what it is for and how sure it is (for example CALM · SURE).
