About Crescendo:
Crescendo Research was founded by Ben Aldern and Erik Zaro in 2023. The idea was born out of Ben’s experience with other tactile audio products that didn’t satisfy the desire for a somatic music experience designed for the listener. After meeting Erik while working together on another project, their shared passion for music and complementary skillsets made them fast friends. The original concept quickly evolved into a realizable vision that became Crescendo Research
Established with the core philosophy of, “It’s all about the experience”. Crescendo Research aims to redefine the way we experience music and audio. With an avid love of music, and a wealth of experience in a variety of engineering disciplines, Ben and Erik have set out to create products that engage the senses, and deepen the connection to music in powerful new ways.
