Circlo vs Jayan

Circlo is an ambient audiovisual clock. The ambient soundtrack by Hannu Kuosmanen changes depending on what time of day it is while the circles on the screen pulsate gently. The music is at its calmest around 1 am/pm, and gets more intense until the clock strikes 1 again. Double-tap anywhere to access the settings screen where you can change the color scheme and turn the music on or off. Design and programming by Johan Halin. Music by Hannu Kuosmanen. --- Johan Halin has also created Kontrol, an experimental techno composition that was shown in 2011 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York as part of the "Talk to Me" exhibition, and Revolve, an ambient reaction game.

Jayan is a generative lo-fi radio station that plays in real time on your device. Choose a scene, press Play, and settle into warm chords, relaxed rhythms, and ambient textures. Six stations offer different musical moods: late-night jazz, tape study, rainy keys, dusty beats, bossa, and ambient night. Recurring melodic themes develop through calls, responses, changing harmonies, and intentional space. A calm illustrated player keeps listening simple. Pause and resume the same session, save a favorite sound to return to later, or set a sleep timer. Auto DJ can guide the music through new scenes while preserving your listening volume. Open the Sound Studio to adjust mood, warmth, swing, melodic space, rain, instrument colors, and the mix. Share a recipe to restore the same generated session on another device. Background playback and lock-screen controls keep your music close when the app is out of view.
