About TapTunes®
Where a lifetime in music meets a new way to experience it.
TapTunes® was founded by Gino and Lisa Gavoni with a simple belief: the way we experience music is ready for its next chapter.
Just as people learned to tap to pay, tap to ride, and tap to unlock, we believe the future of music is Tap to Play™.
By combining beautifully designed music cards with Tap to Play™ technology, QR access, and interactive digital experiences, TapTunes gives artists, brands, and fans a tangible way to connect. Music is no longer just something you stream. It's something you can discover, collect, own, share, and experience again and again.
We're not replacing streaming. We're creating a new way to experience music in the real world, one tap at a time.
The Idea Behind TapTunes
Music has always been more than something you listen to.
More Than a Music Card. A New Way to Experience Music.
Music has always been about more than listening. It creates memories, shapes identities, builds communities, and connects people across generations. Somewhere along the way, music became something we rented instead of something we owned.
We created TapTunes® to bring that connection back.
By combining beautifully designed music cards with Tap to Play™ technology, QR access, and interactive digital experiences, TapTunes gives artists, brands, and fans a new way to share, discover, collect, and experience music in the real world.
Built by People Who Live Music
For decades, music has been at the center of our lives. From songwriting, recording, production, and studio work to artist development, live performance, music technology, and product innovation, we've experienced the industry from nearly every angle.
That experience led us to one simple question:
What comes after streaming?
Our answer was TapTunes.
We Believe Music Should Be Owned
Streaming changed how the world discovers music, but discovery is only the beginning of the relationship.
A TapTunes Music Card is something fans can hold, collect, display, gift, autograph, and revisit for years to come. It transforms music from a temporary stream into a lasting experience while giving artists a meaningful product they own and control.
Technology That Gets Out of the Way
The best technology feels effortless.
Simply tap the card with a compatible smartphone or scan the QR code to instantly unlock the experience. No app. No downloads. No complicated setup.
Just Tap. Play. Enjoy.
Creating Stronger Connections
Every TapTunes experience can include music, artwork, lyrics, photos, videos, social links, exclusive content, tour information, merchandise, and more, giving artists and brands the ability to tell a richer story beyond the music itself.
Our mission is simple:
To make Tap to Play™ the next way the world experiences music, while helping artists create stronger fan relationships through experiences people can collect, keep, and remember.
Because the future of music isn't just digital.
It's personal. It's collectible. It's owned.
Music Industry Experience
From artists and celebrities to global brands.
Built on Decades of Experience
Our journey with music has taken us from songwriting, recording, and production to product development, artist collaborations, and creating music-inspired experiences for some of the world's most recognized brands.
Along the way, we've worked with artists, performers, and entertainment professionals across the industry, while helping develop promotional campaigns and collectible products for companies including Coca-Cola, Heineken, Budweiser, Fireball Whisky, Zippo, and many others.
Those experiences taught us something important: music is more than entertainment. It creates emotion, builds identity, strengthens communities, and turns ordinary moments into lasting memories.
That belief became the foundation of TapTunes®.
By combining decades of experience in music, technology, product innovation, and audience engagement, we set out to create something that didn't exist, a modern way for artists to share their music, connect directly with fans, and offer a collectible experience people can truly own.
Today, TapTunes continues that mission by helping artists, brands, events, and organizations transform music from something people simply hear into something they can discover, collect, keep, and experience again and again.
What Guides Us
We believe music deserves more than a stream.
Music should feel personal, valuable, and worth keeping.
Everything we create at TapTunes begins with one simple belief: music deserves to be experienced, not just streamed. That philosophy influences every music card, every player experience, every artist feature, and every product we build.
Make Music Collectible Again
Music deserves more than a place in a playlist. It should have identity, presentation, and ownership, something fans can discover, collect, keep, and remember.
Keep the Experience Simple
Tap to Play™ should feel as natural as tapping to pay. Simply tap or scan a TapTunes Music Card to instantly unlock music and exclusive content. No app. No downloads. No barriers.
Create More Value for Artists
Artists deserve more than fractions of a cent per stream. TapTunes gives them a product they can sell directly, allowing them to keep the revenue, build stronger fan relationships, and create a business around their music.
Build Experiences That Last
A TapTunes Music Card is more than a link to a song. It's an evolving destination where artists can share new music, videos, stories, tour dates, merchandise, exclusive content, and more, giving fans a reason to return long after the first listen.
Experience TapTunes®
Music you can hold. An experience you can keep.
TapTunes brings music back into the real world through collectible music cards that connect instantly to songs, artist content, and digital experiences.
