We're Aria Labs.
An indie studio building joyful, tactile music software: creation games, musical toys, digital instruments and plugins.
What we believe.
Software should feel like an instrument, not a spreadsheet. The best tools are the ones you understand at a glance, no manuals, no tutorials, no learning curve. You pick it up, you make a sound you love, you get back to writing.
Every Aria Labs release stays in its lane. Each toy does one or two things extremely well. Each instrument has a point of view. Nothing is a Swiss Army knife.
Who it's for.
The novice-to-pro producer always on the hunt for new sounds, ideas and unique instruments to give them an edge. Anyone who thinks "making music" and "playing" should be the same verb.
What we're making.
- SONGBOY: Play Music: a music creation game where you jam with a band of eight sound-making robots. Free demo live on Steam now.
- songtoys: a mobile app packed with bespoke musical toys, launching soon on iOS and Android. Not an all-in-one suite: each toy does one or two things extremely well, with no manuals or tutorials.
- Plugins: Noodler, a fully controllable MIDI guitar sample instrument, and Treasure from Trash, a plugin that scans your entire sample library and turns matching samples into a brand-new song. Both in the workshop.
