Introducing CORRD: evolving Volumio into your personal music journey, everywhere

Volumio started because I had one goal in mind: to enjoy my music library with the highest quality possible. Back then, the world was a simpler place. We just listened to files, and streaming was not a thing.

Over the years developing Volumio, and with the help of our beloved community, something new emerged. Most people have more than one streaming account, so depending on what you want to listen to, you have to open more than one app. This creates a fragmented experience.

One thing you seem to love about Volumio, besides the obsessive attention to sound quality upon which we built it, is having your entire library condensed in one place. I think we did a great job of integrating such a fragmented digital music landscape into one coherent experience.

Now, I’ve started to feel that we’ve achieved as much as we can with Volumio’s current technical architecture. As with all good things, an overhaul is needed.

Thus came the vision to turn Volumio into the ultimate music experience.

Why limit Volumio enjoyment to just when you’re at home? I wanted something you can use wherever you are, that adapts to what you’re doing. Something that merges the convenience of recommendation algorithms and radio with the freedom and customizability that is at the core of what Volumio believes in.

That’s what led to the creation of CORRD a bold step toward making music more accessible and meaningful, wherever you are.

Welcome to CORRD, which is:

• Unified Music Hub: CORRD brings together all your streaming services, music libraries, and discovery tools into one seamless app.
• Personalized Music Assistant: Acts as your personal assistant, crafting a musical flow that matches what you’re doing, while helping you discover fresh and interesting music.
• Versatile and Future-Ready: Designed to adapt to your lifestyle, seamlessly integrating with smart TVs, cars, voice assistants, and more.

CORRD is both an evolution of Volumio and a fresh way to connect with music. It’s a mobile-first, platform-agnostic music aggregator, player, and personal DJ, designed to unify streaming services under one app. By letting you tweak recommendations and discover endless new tracks, CORRD offers control, convenience, and boundless discovery on smart TVs, in cars, through voice assistants, or wherever else music might find you.

We’re starting with something radical because the music industry needs it. Algorithms today often feel like locked boxes, churning out repetitive suggestions. CORRD changes that by letting you personalize and shape your experience, blending the best parts of Volumio with a modern, adaptable foundation. And this is only the beginning—more Volumio features will follow, guided by our loyal community’s feedback.

What you see now is a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), and we need your insights to shape its future.

We’re launching with a private beta for the Volumio community first, because your passion has always inspired our innovation.

If you believe in a better way to enjoy and discover music, and want to help shape it, this is what you have to do to participate:

With your feedback, we’ll refine CORRD and continue evolving the Volumio ecosystem, redefining music listening for everyone, everywhere.
