The problem
UI Background Music
Problem
Loops that wear out in the app
A short background loop plays under a dashboard, onboarding flow, or focus screen, and users hear the same few bars every session. They mute it or turn it off in settings, and the audio feature loses its point.
With Mubert
The realtime stream generates music continuously in 150+ moods and themes, so a screen never repeats a loop. Your app can change intensity mid-stream as the user moves from browsing to a task.
Problem
One shared track for every user
Product teams usually license a single track or small pack for the whole app. Every user gets the same music regardless of mood or activity, and nothing responds to what they like or skip.
With Mubert
Your backend creates a customer for each user with its own customer-id and access-token, and usage counts against your license. Like and dislike feedback can personalize what each person hears.
Problem
Music that doesn't fit the screen
Stock tracks come at fixed lengths and fixed tempos. Designers and developers trim, loop, and crossfade them by hand to fit a splash screen or a timer, and every UI change means redoing the edit.
With Mubert
Generate tracks from text, an image, BPM, genre, and mood, from 15 seconds up to 25 minutes, as MP3 or WAV. A webhook tells your backend when each track is ready.

UI Background Music
How it fits your product
Interface music has to stay out of the way. Pick low-energy ambient or soft electronic with warm pads, a quiet pulse and no lead melody, so it never competes with notifications, voice prompts or on-screen text. Keep tempo around 70 to 90 BPM and avoid sharp transients. Short loops of 30 to 60 seconds work for menus, while a longer track suits dashboards left open for hours.
Use the library for fast prototyping: filter about 12,000 tracks by mood, activity or BPM and ship one. For custom beds, call track generation with a text prompt, BPM and mood, then pick up the file via webhook when it is ready. For apps with long sessions, use a realtime stream and change intensity as the user moves between screens. Create a customer per user for credentials.

FAQ
UI Background Music
What kind of music works as UI background music?
Quiet, low-energy tracks work best: ambient pads, soft electronic or light piano with no strong lead melody. Mubert lets you set genre, mood and BPM when generating, or filter the library by those same attributes, so you can match the music to a specific screen or activity.
Can the background music change while a user is in my app?
Yes. The Mubert API streams realtime generative music over WebRTC with sub-second latency, and you can change the intensity while the stream plays. That lets the music shift as a user moves from a quiet settings screen to an active task, without restarting playback.
