In audio storytelling, finding the right music can be challenging. There’s a huge library of well-made, compelling, front-and-centre music — but the music that grabs people’s attention is often the last thing your narrative needs. We’ve been trying to figure this out over the years and have found that sometimes it’s faster and more successful to create music ourselves. But that’s not an option for everyone.
On August 20, we introduce Thrumm on the podcast movement in Washington, D.C.
Thrumm is more than just another production music library. It’s a carefully thought-out system born out of countless hours of podcasting and music creation. We’ve distilled our experience into a collection of thousands of tracks organized not by genre but by narrative function: action, exposition, resolution, and tension.
This method is simple yet powerful. It lets you intuitively match music to the emotional arc of your story, saving time and enhancing your narrative.
“The power of this library is its depth and ease of use – but it’s also fun to listen to while using it. I feel like I could use it to tell any story, from joy to sadness, fear to warmth, and Everything in between —Gabriel Gould, Sound Designer, Airship.
Additionally, every tune in the Thrumm library is composed of complementary keys and rhythms for seamless transitions and layering.
“One of the things I most want from this library is adaptability. We want users to get not just a single story beat, but a full episode or even an entire series. So when building Thrumm, each track not only Must come with stems and alternate remixes, and the composition must be compatible with the entire library. It’s like a set of Lego music (no, not that one), podcast host, composer, and founder of Thrumm.
