KORD is the first streaming music service curated for humans, by humans.
KORD offers unprecedented access to stems, the building blocks of songs, empowering users to deconstruct hit records and discover how they were built, track by track.
Simply tap to isolate or remove vocals or instruments to hear music in a whole new way — your way.
Go deeper into music than ever before.
KORD takes you behind the music to reveal the stories of how songs were written and recorded, and why they still matter today.
Each song in the KORD Catalog is handpicked by humans, not an algorithm, and our selections span across genres and generations.
All songs are fully-licensed and sourced from original multi-track master recordings. You’ll hear the music exactly as it was recorded in the studio.
Explore credits, liner notes and expert essays.
Images and videos combine with liner notes and detailed credits to shine a spotlight on the performers and their key collaborators, including producers, songwriters, arrangers and session players. KORD also features exclusive content and context from world-class journalists.

Master a few simple skills. KORD is intuitive enough to dive right in, but to ensure you don’t miss the good stuff:
- Scroll down on each song page to view essays, musicians, credits, images, videos and more.
- Tap the “stems” at the bottom of the player to mute and combine the various instruments.

- Tap and hold on a stem to “solo” it. This will automatically mute all other instruments. Tap and hold the instrument again to bring back the complete original mix.
- Tap the “INFO” button in the player for an even deeper dive into each stem.

You’re ready!
