Ithaca, N.Y. - Instinctiv, the developer of an application for Apple's iPhone that recommends songs from a user's own library for listening, has raised $750,000 in seed funding from backers including Cayuga Venture Fund, Rosetech Ventures and a group of strategic angel investors.

Founded in August 2007, the New York-based company's Instinctiv Shuffle application tailors the "shuffle" setting to a listener's current mood, adjusting the stream of songs based on which tunes a user decides to skip through in the random rotation of tracks from their song library.

"People's musical moods are not random and therefore we felt like their shuffle experience shouldn't be either, which is why we created the Instinctiv Shuffle" said Instinctiv co-founder and CEO Justin Smithline.

"Our application improves upon the iTunes Shuffle feature, getting smarter with every skip."
