Hey folks! I've been working on this playlist site where I post 7 new songs each week for my friends (or anyone else) to explore. It started as a simple design experiment, then turned into a coding test, and then with some JS help from a buddy, it became a real thing!

It was designed and optimized for desktop viewing, so tech nerds like me can check it out while working. There are definitely some responsive issues (don't even dare viewing it in mobile landscape mode) and autoplay is blocked on mobile devices so you'll have to press play each time. But other than that, would love any and all feedback!

I've been meaning to do the same thing! I dig when people share small things like this. Another project that started in a similar way is Noon Pacific. Nice selections too.

When clicking on a date range it stops the current song and does nothing else. Maybe change that behaviour to select the first song in that week? Deep-linking to specific weeks would be handy too. Lastly, volume control would be neat as even with my Mac on only 1 volume bar, it's still a bit loud.

Looking good :) I had a quick look into the code, please consider blocking direct access to your /data directory as you are openly exposing copyrighted music there.

Dig your selection this week. Got a way to subscribe to your playlists?

The layout of this is top notch, and I'm really impressed how it scales down for different browser sizes. My only criticism is the blurred image in the background is restricting animation performance in other areas. When I turned off the blur in the inspector everything ran a lot more smoothly. Is there another way to achieve this blur?

This is awesome, Erik! Great selection of songs as well. I'll definitely be checking back in every Wednesday. You should start an email list that goes out every Wednesday morning announcing the new playlist, just in case people forget to check back. I'd sign up for that!

This is awesome man, congrats!

Hmm, nice looking site, but there is no way this is legal, right?

Where are the songs coming from? Soundcloud, spotify, mp3?

I like it. A Lot. Well done =)

This is beautiful, great work! Love that rubik typeface.

I've been thinking of doing something like this too. I don't want my music preferences to be buried in some music service's DB.

What is your workflow for adding songs to your lists? Do you have to dig up the album artwork from somewhere, and are the links to Spotify / itunes are entered manually?

Great music! thank you for that. The site looks ok too but when I view it on my mac book pro I'm having trouble seeing the playback controls unless I make it full screen.

Looking nice! Maybe would look better with a transition animation when changing the song

Love it. Great concept.

This is really great, Love the style of it, very modern. works well! great coding and design work!

FINALLY! I was looking all over for this. I should have know that DN has all the answers!

BOOKMARKING THIS FOR SURE!
