Because languages differ,
you're anxious about being understood.
You're afraid of being misunderstood
or thought of as strange.
It's so frustrating to stop just because of language when all you want is to make music.
Your bandmates are waiting.
All you need is Membo
to find them.
What's Membo?
Different languages.
Scattered search platforms.
Unknown compatibility.
Those days
are over.
Even if languages differ, even if countries differ,
Membo was born to help you find compatible partners
and continue making music.
A place to meet "someone who matches your sound"
beyond multiple recruitment sites and language barriers.
If you want to connect through music, this is where it starts.
The path to playing together is surprisingly long.
Message boards, SNS, apps,
word of mouth...
Where's the right place? There are too many to figure out.
You get tired just from searching, and searching becomes the goal instead of playing.
After all, you can't really know if the feeling is right until you actually meet.
The more careful you become, the more "maybe not now" piles up.
You want to do it, but
before you know it, you're postponing again.
Where can language not be a barrier,
search in one place,
and instantly know compatibility?
It's all
in Membo.
Membo isn't just for "searching"—
it's a free web service
built for "meeting."
Language differences, seamlessly Automatic translation.
FEATURE 01
So you never have to give up before talking just because of language differences.
Membo supports 8 languages.
Japanese / English / Chinese (Simplified & Traditional) / Korean / Vietnamese / Nepali / Hindi
In real-time chat, messages are automatically translated the moment you send them. With seamless conversation, "do I want to talk?" becomes your only motivation.
No more searching multiple sites— "Just this one."
FEATURE 02
When there are too many places to search, searching itself becomes the goal.
With Membo, search across multiple member recruitment sites at once. Post, search, and communicate all in one place. Spend time feeling compatibility rather than searching.
Profiles that let you "feel" compatibility.
FEATURE 03
There are things that recruitment posts can't convey.
With Membo, you can set up audio, video, photos, playlists, and activity schedules.
Compatibility is decided not just by text, but by "vibe."
You can sense the atmosphere that text couldn't convey before,
so "it was different when we met" is less likely to happen.
That's why the reason to send the first message is born.
Even more features
to get closer to playing.

THE ORIGIN OF Membo
Actually, this isn't Membo's first time.
A few years ago, it once ran as a service under the same name.
Even then, it had features for simultaneous search across multiple sites
and multi-language switching.
(At that time: Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean)
Even then, there were people who wanted to form bands
and search for partners,
but due to the circumstances and world trends at the time,
such a service wasn't really needed.
To become a "truly needed place"
rather than a "conveniently used service,"
and to "polish our user stance more,"
Membo chose to sleep once.
In the meantime, the world and music changed.
Music communities crossed borders and nationalities,
theater, bands, sessions,
cultural activities connected online,
and it's such a waste
when sounds don't cross because of language.
Communication between countries and in society
is so important in this era.
——Now, Membo is needed.
With that conviction, we launched again.
Membo is not a completely new service,
but a "service that came back" for those who want to continue music.
There's nothing difficult.
Look at recruitments. Reach out to someone you're interested in.
Just that gets you closer to playing.
Let's start with Membo.
