2. UniSong is an innovative and
newly developed app
dedicated to helping
songwriters and musicians
throughout the globe who want
to collaborate with others
Many musicians want to make
music with others, but do not
have the tools or time to make
it happen

4. Here is a fictional example of how it all comes together:
1. Jimmy (from San Francisco, California) records a sound file of him playing guitar
and uploads it to UniSong. This is his recorded guitar track:
2. While listening to sound files within the database on the UniSong App, Connor
from Tokyo, Japan finds the guitar track recorded by Jimmy. He likes it and
decides to record a bass track to layer on top of Jimmy’s guitar part. He then
uploads the new file with both him and Jimmy playing into the database, using
the UniSong App. This is Jimmy’s guitar track combined with Connor’s bass
track:
3. Paul (from London, England) is browsing through his UniSong app and comes
across the file of both Jimmy and Connor playing. He likes what he hears and
decides to record a drum track to accompany the guitar and bass tracks. He then
uploads it to UniSong and this is the final product they created:

5. My drummer and I from back home have done a project that
essentially applies this same concept.
We recorded tracks separately on our own time in different
locations. He then sent me the tracks he recorded and I
mixed all the tracks together.
We then made a music video for the song... Click Here to

Disher Music & Sound
Studios (where I recorded
the guitar, bass and vocals).

There is a movement called Playing For
Change, which is very similar to this whole
concept
- “Playing for Change is a multimedia movement
created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to
the world through music.”
See a video of what the movement is
about here
This is, in a nutshell, what I aspire to do
with my app, but I want more people to
be able to use it

7. There is an app currently in the
app store called “AutoRap”,
created by Smule. The look of
UniSound would be similar to it.
Click here to see.
Where you would browse for
beats in “AutoRap”, you would
browse for tracks (drum beats,
chord progressions, bass
lines, etc…) in UniSong.
Instead of talking or
rapping, you would record
your track within the
collaborative song.

8. Ultimately, this app should provide musicians
with the tools to help fellow musicians learn
to work together, inspire each other, connect
with each other and communicate through
the universal language of music.
Music brings people together, transcending
the boundaries that society creates. If
musicians can remotely collaborate, there
are no limitations to what can happen.
The plan is for this app to be free and to run
and be compatible on Android and Apple
products, such as mobile devices, iPads/
Tablets, and computers as well. This will
allow as many musicians as possible to
utilize this extraordinary app.
