About ToneStream
The Evolution of Peace
ToneStream is a living, continually forming stream of very special sounds; it is designed to gently, yet profoundly, support clarity in the mind, ease in daily life, and peace in the body.
Nothing else exists quite like it.
ToneStream plays continuously—a stream of ever-changing pure harmonic tones and unique sound arrangements that are arranged in the moment of listening. No two moments are ever the same. When you tap to play, you hear a configuration of sound that will never occur in exactly that way again. There is a balance of moment-to-moment uniqueness combined with occasional familiarity that make the present moment a safe yet alluring place to spend time.
ToneStream is not binaural beats! Nor does it prompt specific brainwave responses. It’s a distinct strategy, based on the inherent order of the harmonic series, for nervous‑system settling, emotional de‑cluttering, and gentle coherence.
You are not listening alone:
Around the world, people tune in simultaneously to the same living stream of sound. This shared listening experience creates something akin to a collective reservoir of calm—perhaps best described as an energy bank—from which a new kind of balance may naturally emerge. Those who arrive seeking support may discover it simply by listening, while those who feel grounded contribute their own steady presence to the whole, also simply by listening. As our work has evolved, we’ve become increasingly interested in the possibility of an unseen resonance within this shared field and in the intriguing ways listeners themselves may influence the Stream.
Together, we’re going to watch ToneStream’s impact grow, and its reach to widen. If you know it makes a difference for you, share it–this is how we can all help the world change.
What ToneStream is For
ToneStream is Sound with Purpose, created to gently return you to yourself.
It is very simple to use and designed for real life. No need to become a meditator or a mindful practitioner. Just be you, listen when you can, when you want, when you need.
Many listeners report:
- A growing sense of safety
- Deeper sleep
- Easier focus
- A ever-calmer nervous system
- A quieting of mental noise
Play ToneStream while you:
- Wake up
- Work
- Gather with family and friends
- Spend time with your animals (they love ToneStream!)
- Meditate or stretch
- Walk
- Wind down for sleep
Listen with headphones or speakers. Stay for a few minutes or for an hour or more. There is no right way. Just tap to play and notice what shifts.
With increased balance and calm, YOU are what evolves and spreads peace.
ToneStream, and you, are what make The Evolution of Peace come true.
How ToneStream is Made
ToneStream is made from hundreds of improvisational recordings by Solu founder Michael Joly, with creative insights and direction from partner Alene Sibley. Michael plays real instruments in a thought-free, peaceful state, meticulously releasing any intentional musicality so the sounds can compose themselves in real-time, all the time. He reports it seems that his peaceful performance state is embedded in the performances and recordings, you can judge for yourself by listening.
New sounds continue to be added, creating ever changing and unexpected intersections and layers, providing a stillness that travels from the moment of initial creation to your personal, fully unique listening experience.
The Founding of Solu
Solu launched in 2017 with the release of the singular n.o.w. Tone Therapy System (the world’s first, self-contained mindfulness audio device). We are a small team of dedicated collaborators brought together to build practical, lasting and EASY pathways to peace. Now we bring you ToneStream, but its full power comes alive only through you, the listener.
ToneStream is not passive audio. It is participatory, powerful peace.
When you listen, you are part of something larger — a growing field of awakening possibility.
Gifting ToneStream
Because the personal and collective benefits of ToneStream matter so much we’ve worked hard to make the app affordable—both to subscribe to and to give as a gift. This experience is meant to move outward, from person to person. It is meant to change the world.
We understand that peace should simply be part of life—something as natural as breathing, available to everyone. We aim for the day that peace becomes so normal it won’t even need a name, no longer something we wish for, but something we live within.
When you begin to experience the effects of ToneStream in your own life, you want others to experience it too. For this reason, one of the most important features of the app—after the sounds and the listening—is gift subscriptions. This is what allows you to share what we’ve built, and what you’ve discovered for yourself.
Every shared subscription helps extend this living stream of listening outward, supporting a deeper peace for more and more people.
GIFT SUBSCRIPTIONS AVAILABLE WITH OUR LAUNCH IN SEPTEMBER 2026!
We are grateful to have you playing ToneStream with us! Because with you, ToneStream becomes more than beautiful and effective sound:
It becomes the Evolution of Peace.
