Our Song lets you create songs with family and friends even if you live apart. It’s created by a Music Therapist with 10 years of experience working with older adults and people living with dementia. Our Song is designed to help people connect to others through music, engage in meaningful activity and create something that lasts for generations.
TWO FREE ACCOUNTS WHEN YOU SIGN UP
When you become a subscriber to the app, you can contact us at musikind@icloud.com, and we will create 2 free accounts for every 1 paid account, so that family members or friends can use the app to make songs with you whilst you are subscribed.
REMINISCENT DESIGN
Our Song is quick and easy to use, and the reminiscent theme is based around a 1980s cassette tape recorder. Choose your song, choose what pitch you want to sing it in, put on your headphones and you’re ready to record your voice! Then share the song with loved ones so that they can sing onto the same track, making a duet! Whole families of multiple generations can come together and create a song, then the song can be cherished for years to come, even after you’re no longer subscribed to the app.
HAVE FUN
Our Song is made for older adults, people living with dementia and their family and carers. Take a moment from your day to sit down and have some fun with music. The health benefits of musical activity are vast and Our Song uses purpose made covers of well-known songs so that you can engage in music in a new way – song creation!
MOVE AND GROOVE
Along with every song in the app comes activity ideas to boost physical and cognitive engagement. If you don’t feel like singing or recording today, no problem, try listening to our movement-based activities or our word games!
Our Song was created with the help of Innovate UK, who awarded us funding after a highly competitive application process.
