The word is the star
Your track title is set gigantic in a black grotesque and squashes on every kick: a typographic pulse you read before you hear it. Header, title, and artist lines are all yours to rewrite.
Grotesk Music Visualizer
Swiss-brutalist typography on warm paper: your track title set gigantic, squashing on every kick above sixteen ink amplitude bars.

Grotesk is a music visualizer built as a typographic poster that plays your song. The track title sits enormous in 900-weight grotesque over sixteen ink bars (each one reading its own real frequency range), with a red marker gliding to the loudest band, four metronome beat dots, a live mono timecode, and hairline editorial rules. It looks like a printed spread from a design annual, except it moves.
The reactivity is honest: the bars ride the same validated bar-family pipeline as the rest of our catalog (instant attack, musical decay, a loudness envelope, silence gating), while the beat signal drives the title squash and the red marker separately. Kicks compress the word; the spectrum fills the bars. Nothing wiggles on its own.
What makes Grotesk different
Sixteen honest bands
Each ink bar reads its own slice of the spectrum through our validated bar reactivity (instant attack, musical decay, loudness envelope), while a red marker glides to whichever band is loudest right now.
Editorial furniture
Four metronome beat dots, a live mono timecode, and hairline rules frame the page like a printed design study. At silence the bars settle flat and the layout reads as a clean poster.
Composed for every format
The grid re-sets itself for 16:9, 9:16, and 1:1, with margins, title size, and bar field all re-tuned per format, and the studio preview replays the renderer's exact per-frame analysis.
