We didn't expect to build a radio station
By Mariana Muntean, CEO of Cinevva
We have a music generator on the Cinevva platform so game creators can make game soundtracks and SFX without licensing headaches. What happened next, we did not plan for. People started making music because they wanted to make music. Not for games or projects. Just music production.
Bella Bay made over 100 tracks in two weeks
I'm not exaggerating. One of our creators, Bella Bay, generated over 100 tracks in about two weeks. When you listen through them on Cinevva Radio, you can hear the progression. The early tracks are experiments. The later ones sound like someone who found their style. That kind of creative acceleration doesn't happen when you're fighting your tools. It happens when the tools get out of the way.
Bella Bay isn't an outlier in spirit, just in volume. All across the platform, people started treating the music generator not as a utility for game assets but as a creative instrument. Producers experimenting with genres they'd never tried. People iterating on a sound until it clicked. Bedroom artists who'd never had access to a full production toolkit suddenly had one and went all in.
So we built a radio
It had to be done.
We had all these tracks sitting in people's accounts with no collective space. No way to discover what others were making. No way to stumble onto a track that changes your afternoon.
Cinevva Radio is now live. Eight stations. 362 community-created tracks and growing every day. Every single song was made by someone on the platform. You open it and something is playing. You don't have to search. You don't have to decide. You just listen.
Soundstage is our biggest station. 111 tracks of cinematic and epic scores. I honestly didn't see that coming. People love making dramatic, film-style music.
Discovery caught everything that doesn't fit neatly into a genre. 78 tracks. Latin beats next to Afrobeats next to country next to something that defies description. This station is wild.
Main Stage is pop and vocal tracks. 56 tracks with full lyrics and vocals. People are writing love songs, breakup songs, worship music, ballads. Some of it is genuinely catchy.
Voltage is rock and metal. 53 tracks. Guitar riffs, punk energy, grunge, hard rock. I keep this one on while working.
Lo-Fi Cafe is exactly what it sounds like. 25 chill ambient tracks for studying, working, or just vibing.
Electric Dreams has 22 electronic and synth tracks. Synthwave, techno, EDM, drum and bass.
Ivory Tower is classical and orchestral. 10 tracks. Piano pieces, string arrangements, symphonic stuff. Small but growing.
The Cipher is hip-hop and rap. 7 tracks so far. Newest station, still finding its voice.
What you see when you listen
When you open Cinevva Radio, it's a live stream. Think of it less like a playlist app and more like an actual radio station. Tracks play continuously. You can react in real time, chat with other listeners, and see who made each track.
Creators get credited on screen while their track plays. Their name, their prompt, the genre. If you hear something you like, you know who made it. It's community-created content with a discovery layer on top. No algorithms deciding what's worthy. No gatekeepers. You made a track, it goes on the station that matches its genre, and people hear it.
This is bigger than a feature
For decades, music production required expensive software, years of training, and access to equipment most people couldn't afford. What we're seeing is a different kind of creator. People who think in descriptions and feelings rather than notes and time signatures.
"Rainy night jazz with a broken piano" is a creative direction. The person who wrote that prompt made an artistic choice. They directed the mood, the instrumentation, the emotional register. They just don't happen to play piano.
I don't think that makes their output less valid. I think it means the definition of "musician" is stretching. And watching someone like Bella Bay go from zero to a hundred tracks in two weeks tells me the creative drive was always there. The tools just weren't.
What's next
We're working on community profiles where producers can showcase their catalog and build a following. The charts page already shows community creations across all tools, and we want to bring that same energy specifically to music.
But right now, the radio is live. Go listen. And if you want to make your own tracks, the music generator is free to use. Your track might end up on the air.
