Chrome Music Lab is all built for the web, so you can start playing instantly, whether you’re on a tablet, phone, or laptop. You can play with sound, rhythm, melody, and more.

It’s called Chrome Music Lab, and you can check it out at g.co/musiclab.

We built a set of experiments that let anyone explore how music works.

Rhythm – Explore how to create your own rhythms as adorable monsters play what you create.This year, for Music in Our Schools Month, we wanted to help make learning about music a bit more accessible to everyone by using technology that’s open to everyone: the web.

Song Maker – Choose instruments and color in the blocks to create unique songs to share with others.

Share the link for others to join and create songs together.

Shared Piano – A virtual piano for one or more people to play at once.

Trying Out the ExperimentsĪt the time of writing, the Chrome Music Lab has 14 experiments available. In fact, many teachers and classrooms are using the Lab to help kids better understand how music works along with its connections to math, science, and technology. The tools were designed with fun and education in mind.

If you save something you create, you’re given a unique link to it. The Lab is completely free to use – no account is needed. If you’re a developer, you may enjoy checking that out and even building upon it.

The experiments are built using free online technologies and the code behind some of them is even on GitHub. The project is organized into “experiments.” Each experiment has a different musical focus.
