COTODAMA Canvas backed by Abbey Road Red

The award-winning music tech company, COTODAMA, has doubly good news. Firstly they have a new product in the Lyric Canvas. Secondly, they are proud to announce their new ventures with Europe’s leading music tech incubator Abbey Road Red.

Cast your mind back to the end of last year. Are you there yet? Right, now picture the see-through speaker that displayed the lyrics of the song being played on it. That was the COTODAMA Lyric speaker.

The Lyric speaker now has a new family member called Lyric Canvas. Furthermore, Abbey Road Red now stands behind COTODAMA as the company moves forward with new experiences and products for their lyric-sync technology.

Abbey Road Red has been behind some of the world’s most innovative technologies empowering music culture.

COTODAMA Lyric Canvas

The Canvas model is informed by a design ethos that fits in with interior design trends.

Canvas consists of two boards that lean against the wall. Not too dissimilar to how some of us might rest an LP sleeve against wall as the record plays. Well, in the case of Canvas, the front board is the screen which displays the lyrics. Meanwhile, located on the second board are the Hi-Fi audio speakers.

Designed as a high art concept which will decorate the home, Canvas allows listeners to live with their favourite lyrics like a painting on the wall. Providing constant inspiration and motivation through the power of words. Bringing lyrics and art together.

Karim Fanous, Innovation Manager at Abbey Road Red, told us:

With streaming, music services have been evolving at an astonishing pace. More music is available and more accessible than ever before, but lyrics haven’t kept up. We’ve lost the feeling of running our fingers over release artwork and reading the lyrics while listening, singing along or mouthing the words when we feel like it. The brilliant team at COTODAMA are on a mission to evolve our lyrical experiences. Abbey Road Red explores the world’s most innovative technologies empowering music and culture. We are happy to partner with COTODAMA as the company moves forward with new experiences and products for their lyric visualisation technology.”
