The Eternal Jukebox: Create Endless Loops from Any Song

Discover The Eternal Jukebox, a web app that transforms your favorite tunes into endless loops, allowing you to customize and repeat specific sections with seamless transitions.

What is The Eternal Jukebox?

The Eternal Jukebox is a free web application that creates endless looping music mixes from existing songs. Developed by Paul Lamere while working at the Echo Nest, it uses advanced audio analysis to break down the structure of songs and allow users to set loop points to isolate and repeat specific sections.

After entering the name of a song or artist into the search bar, the waveform for that recording is displayed along a zoomable timeline. You can set the start and end points for a loop by clicking on the waveform, and the app will automatically adjust the transition to make it sound continuous and natural. The loop points can be tweaked or changed anytime to rearrange the song's structure.

Built-in sharing options make it easy to get a permanent link to your endless mix that friends can listen to and remix further. The app works best with songs that have clear repetitive sections and identifiable rhythms. It encourages experimenting with song structure in fun, unexpected ways. The simplicity of the one-page design allows rapid creation of evolving musical ideas.

The Eternal Jukebox is credited with pioneering the concept of editable song loops. While originally created for the Echo Nest's music intelligence platform, it continues to be hosted as a unique, free tool for musicians and music fans to discover new ways of hearing and interacting with the songs they know and love.
