In addition to more common streaming platform features, the Moodagent app introduces a set of mood sliders – Sensual, Tender, Happy, Angry, Tempo – that can be adjusted to change the tone and vibe of the playlist, keeping in mind that emotions or preferences are rarely static nor can they be described in absolute terms.
