Most people listen to music to regulate mood, achieve self-awareness, and for socialization [9]. 95.6 percent of Americans aged 13 and older listen to some form of audio in their lives. According to a study, people stop finding new music by age 30. Our solution, Vocodex, provides a way for people to find new music related to their mood through emotional state description. Our solution is built with Flutter, which provides the tools needed to build a cross-platform app for Android, Ios, and the web [10]. Our app classifies emotions of up to four different classes and uses that information to fetch songs from a database. Songs are then played with our in-app music player. The model trained to analyze text achieved up to 94% accuracy when retrained on a heavier dataset.
