About MoodStrum

MoodStrum is a reference tool for musicians who want to nail a specific emotional tone in their compositions.

We believe music theory should be practical. Instead of abstract rules, we show you exactly which chord progressions and scales create specific moods — backed by real examples from games, films, and composers you know.

What We Offer

  • Chord Explorer — Interactive guitar and piano chord diagrams with Web Audio playback
  • Scale Explorer — 30+ scales with fretboard/keyboard visualization
  • Mood Reference — Curated progressions for moods, games, composers, and genres, each with a theory explanation

Why Hardcoded?

Every progression here is manually researched and verified against real compositions. No AI guesswork — just accurate, curated music theory.

MoodStrum is a project by Brynsonic.
