About Korus

What Is Korus

Korus is an AI music creation platform from Pixelynx, the metaverse music company co-founded by DJ and producer Deadmau5 and owned by Animoca Brands. It lets you build music rather than just listen to it. You remix licensed stem files from real artists and labels, then turn the result into something you can publish and share.

The tool targets the gap between passive streaming and serious studio software. You don't need a DAW or a music theory background to start. You pick stems, stack them, and let AI fill in the rest.

The catalog is its biggest selling point and its main limit. You can only remix what labels have cleared for the platform, so your choice of source material is narrower than pulling any track off the internet. Preserving artist rights is built into the model, which is why the roster grows slowly.

Getting Started

  1. Open the Korus site in a browser and create an account, or sign in with your existing credentials.
  2. Pick a project or a community drop to work from, then browse the approved stems that artists and labels have shared.
  3. Choose a Kor, the AI companion that generates music and visuals in your selected mood.
  4. Layer vocals, drums, bass, and synths in the browser, or describe an idea and let the AI draft a sketch.
  5. Record, share, or remix the track, then post it to the feed or mint it where the platform supports it.

Key features

AI Music Companions Called Kors

Kors are the friendly AI characters at the center of the platform. You collect them and train each one to generate new music and album images from prompts like a dark, angry mood. Three free companions ship at launch, made with Mau5trap, Beatport, and Pioneer DJ, and the roster has grown with artist-designed additions.

Stem Remixing From Real Artists

You pull approved stems from artists and labels and rework vocals, drums, melodies, and textures into your own version. Because the material is licensed, the platform pays artists for uploads and splits royalties with the original rights holders.

Sound Mosaic Composition Engine

Sound Mosaic is the proprietary algorithm that composes music from the stems you feed it. It's the technical core that powers the remixing and the AI sketching, and Pixelynx has said it will be offered as an SDK for developers.

Layer Mosaic and Effects

Layer Mosaic lets you shape a track by adjusting drums, vocals, harmony, and melody, with an XY pad of performance effects for live tweaks. It gives non-producers hands-on control without asking them to learn a full production suite.

Scenz Visual Tools

Scenz builds visuals for your track by placing animated backgrounds, images, and avatars around the screen. You can record the result and post it to social media, so a finished track comes with a clip attached.

Live Drops and Community Sessions

Artists build tracks live while fans vote on creative decisions, submit ideas, and remix in the same session. The shared moment turns a solo editing task into a group activity, and it's where the platform's participatory pitch plays out.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Runs in the browser, so you can remix music on a laptop with no install and no studio gear.
  • Licensed stems keep your remixes inside the rights framework instead of in a legal gray area.
  • AI companions and the prompt-to-sketch flow lower the barrier for people who've never produced music.
  • Live drops and community voting give your work an audience and a shot at label attention.
  • A free tier with three companion characters makes it cheap to try before spending anything.

Cons

  • Source material is limited to stems the labels have cleared, so popular tracks you want may not be available.
  • The business model has shifted as the platform evolved, so pricing and premium perks can change without much warning.
  • Deep production control is thinner than a full DAW, which will frustrate users who need precise mixing.
