HABU: YOUR MUSIC BASED ON YOUR MOOD
“Build the perfect playlist in one tap” That’s the promise of Habu by Gravity Mobile. You install the app and tap a song and it
builds a playlist based on mood. Habu also helps you learn a bit about yourself based on what music you have. I tried it out on
my work iPhone 5s and then realised that I don’t keep really any music on this device as my library is stored on my Classic iPod
with 160GB… but never fear, Habu let’s me “Discover” music from a list it has and if I like it I can buy it on iTunes and even find
similar songs. So time to try it out. I selected “Brooding” as my mood and the first 5 songs it suggested were:
Layla - Derek and the Dominioes
Jeremy - Pearl Jam
Shout - Tears for Fears
Take My Breath Away - Berlin
Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana.
I’ll let you decide if they are brooding songs but
I liked some of these songs. Habu is on iOS
and Google Play.
