Groovecat is a mobile app that lets you capture and share Music Moments. Music Moments are emotional, unique and transient moments in which music and situation fit together perfectly. Groovecat is aimed above all at millenials where music streaming, smartphones and social media have established themselves as a part of everyday use. In addition, artists can prepare their own multimedia content and monetize their music directly: each view also counts as a stream on Spotify and Co. Groovecat is available for free download in the App Store.
