About Underscored
Underscored gives every book its own musical score, timed to the way you read. As you move through the story, the music shifts with it - building through tense scenes, pulling back during quiet moments, crossfading seamlessly as you turn each page. The tempo follows your pace, so no two reading sessions sound the same. WHAT'S INCLUDED - Frankenstein, Mary Shelley's classic tale of creation and consequence, complete, unabridged, and with a dynamic score. - Free Book of the Month, fully scored - Preview any score before you buy - Full paginated reader with light, dark, and sepia themes - Paper book mode for reading physical copies - Offline support - download scores and read anywhere HOW IT WORKS Each book is analyzed for narrative structure, emotional arc, and pacing. A unique score is composed chapter by chapter, with musical segments mapped to exact word positions in the text. Every score includes a musical brief - a composer's note on the sonic identity of that book. The instruments, the motifs, the emotional arc of the music from first page to last. SCORED CLASSICS - $0.99 EACH - Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen - Dracula - Bram Stoker - Alice's Adventures in Wonderland -Lewis Carroll - Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad - The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald New books are added regularly.
