What is Drift?
Drift is an always-on ambient radio for different moods. Pick a mood, press play, and let the music carry you. No queues, no algorithms, no skip anxiety.
Every track has real structure and soul — not background noise, but music that feels authored. The playlist shuffles intelligently using weighted selection, so you hear variety without repetition.
The Moods
Six distinct moods, each with a growing library of tracks:
- Focus — Instrumental ambient for deep work
- Calm — Soft textures for winding down
- Late Night — Chillwave and lo-fi for the quiet hours
- Energize — Uplifting beats to get moving
- Groove — Funk, soul, and head-nodding rhythms
- Storm — Cinematic intensity and dark energy
How It Works
Drift is a single-page web app that runs entirely in your browser. Audio streams from a CDN with gapless playback between tracks. There are no accounts, no tracking cookies, and no personal data collection.
Install it as a PWA for lock screen controls and an app-like experience on mobile.
Built With
Go backend, SQLite database, vanilla JavaScript frontend. No frameworks, no build step, no bundler. The entire frontend is hand-written HTML, CSS, and JS served as static files.
