A full music-streaming app — multi-source catalogue, gapless player, live visualiser, and a dashboard that learns your taste per visit. Built with Next.js 15, Prisma and Postgres.
Live
Most music apps either lock you into one catalogue or overwhelm you with choices. I wanted a single player that could pull from multiple sources, play without gaps between tracks, and actually learn what you like — not just what you clicked once. The goal was a streaming experience that feels personal from the first visit, built entirely on the web with no native app required.
VenWave is built around three ideas: a unified catalogue, a gapless engine, and a taste model. The catalogue aggregates tracks from multiple sources into one searchable library with deduplication and source priority. The player uses the Web Audio API for true gapless playback, crossfade, and a real-time visualiser that reacts to frequency data. Every listen, skip, like and replay feeds a lightweight preference model stored per user, so the dashboard surfaces more of what you actually want to hear.
Dark, immersive and focused on the music. A full-width player with album art, waveform visualiser and keyboard shortcuts. The dashboard adapts per visit — recently played, suggested based on your skips, and a "because you liked" rail that updates as the taste model learns. Responsive from phone to desktop, with touch-friendly controls and a collapsible queue.
A working music-streaming app with multi-source search, gapless playback, live visualisation and a personalisation engine that improves with every session. Built with Next.js 15 App Router, Prisma and Postgres for type-safe data access. Currently in maintenance while moving to a new always-on server; the case study and demo will be back online soon.
