Music that knows the scene
Most playlists know two moods: quiet and loud. The Bard's Lectern knows the difference between a dragon and the undead, a chase and a battle, dread and wonder.
Every track was composed for the table and tagged by creature, encounter, mood, setting and even instrument. The music fits the moment instead of just filling the silence.
The perfect track in seconds
Your players just woke something ancient under the mountain. Type "dragon," click the tag, add "battle," and the queue is ready before the dice hit the table.
Mix filters with AND, OR and NOT, and banish anything you never want to hear with Exclude tags. No more scrolling through a playlist while your table waits.
One click, new mood
Build the perfect mix for the tavern, the boss fight or the long voyage once, then save it as a scene. Bring it back with a click, or Shift and click to switch the instant the ambush springs.
Crossfade blends each track into the next, so the music never cuts out in the middle of the moment.
