SoundBox is an HTML5 synth music tracker/editor, suitable for creating music for small JavaScript demos (on the order of 4K / 8K).
SoundBox is a tool for composing music in your browser. Its design is basically that of a music tracker, which means that the music is organized in tracks and patterns. To run your own copy of SoundBox locally, you need to serve it via a web server (using the file:// protocol is not supported). All code is written in pure HTML/JavaScript/CSS, without any third party toolkits or frameworks. Takes a little time to render the sounds before playback begins. Can load and save songs locally as well as export to .wav files.

Browser based music making application driving modular synths, samplers and effects using a tracker interface. Supports MIDI controllers and provides both local and Dropbox project storage.
Efflux is an application that allows users to create music inside their browser. Efflux is a tracker and follows conventions familiar to those who have used anything from Ultimate Soundtracker to Renoise. All sounds are oscillator (or wave table) based and can be routed through an effects signal path, making Efflux a modular synthesis environment, where the synths are driven by the tracker.
As a musician based in Berlin, I have taken my inspiration from the Cyberpunk 2020 roleplaying game books and translated them into a unique blend of music and art. My goal is to create an immersive world that captures the dark, gritty atmosphere of a futuristic metropolis.
With Night City Café, I have created a musical and visual experience that transports the listener into the neon-lit streets of a technologically advanced city. The project invites the audience to explore a world filled with shady characters and cutting-edge technology.
As a lover of the cyberpunk genre, I wanted to create something that truly captured its essence. Through my music and art, I aim to showcase the captivating and terrifying world of Night City Café. I hope you will join me on this immersive journey as we explore the depths of this futuristic world.
Lofi beats to relax to, mixed in realtime with radio chatter from a randomly selected air traffic control tower.
Sequencer64 is a progressive web application that allows you to quickly sequence a 64-step pattern for a 9-sound sampler. It has 9 kits, each with 9 samples in which you can individually edit the pattern, 'slice' (sub-16th note subdivisions), pitch, length, and velocity. There are 9 pre-programmed sequences to get you started. Login with social media to save and load your sequences for later work. Share your sequences publicly with other users. Multiple color themes and a visual spectrum analyzer.
freedb.org announced its services would shutdown entirely on 2020-03-31. Many legacy software applications have FreeDB/CDDB support built-in for fetching CD metadata such as artist, title, and track names. To keep these apps functioning in their fully glory, this is meant as a drop-in replacement for FreeDB/CDDB.
This application does not use the original CDDB database, but fetches disc information from MusicBrainz which has an open API and excellent up-to-date disc metadata.
You can use their public service as documented, or stand up and run your own. Written in Euphoria, a language I've never heard of.
Defcon 1-29. Video, audio, papers, pictures (lots of pictures), filler material, music and programs.
1.8 TB in size. Good luck.
Harmonoid is a new-generation personal media management application. It's a webapp but thankfully it's not more Electron webshit. Unfortunately, more Discord instead of documentation bullshit. Play and manage your music library. Uses mpv as its playback system. Metadata manager. Strictly follows Material design. Small, low memory usage.

Pebble is a complete modular music engine in the form of a simple text editor. Using the Pebble code language, you can create custom sounds and arrange them into full songs using a dynamic piano-roll notation.
The editor supports live playback and looping, as well as WAV export. For more information about using Pebble, see the Guide page on this site or type help in the FILE bar in the program!
You can get the software from itch.io: https://nashhigh.itch.io/pebble
This is an in-depth guide to the different elements of the Pebble code language. It is set up to be a reference more than a tutorial, so if you are just starting out, you might want to go through the welcome document first. (This is the first file that loads when you start Pebble.) Or you could try out one of the demo files, by typing demo1, demo2, or demo3 into the File bar and pressing Load. You can also enter help to access this guide in-program, or use ref to get the quick-reference guide. The default soundpack is sounds which you can import (IMP sounds) to access many basic sounds, or you can load it directly to scope out how they are created.
The Pebble code language is modular, which means that all the sounds, instruments, and patterns are created by combining and arranging different modules, each of which typically performs a simple function (like addition, or changing volume).
Cowbell is an HTML / JavaScript audio player that can play diverse audio file formats with a common user interface, with a particular focus on the demoscene and tracker music.
MP3, OGG (and whatever else your browser supports natively), MOD, XM, S3M, IT (and all other formats implemented by libopenmpt), SID, SAP (and other Atari 8-bit formats implemented by ASAP), SNDH, PSG, VTX, STC, SQT and PT3 formats.
Getting every last detail and edge case of demoscene music formats right is hard, and so Cowbell is built on top of existing tried-and-tested playback engines. For tracker music formats, we use an Emscripten build of libopenmpt, the most mature and comprehensively-tested module player library available. Players for ZX Spectrum formats are either a direct translation of the original Z80 player routines, or the Z80 player routines themselves running under emulation.
Requires CoffeeScript, Pasmo http://pasmo.speccy.org, Closure Compiler, Perl and Make. Or just download the latest release.
You have to write your own HTML but the doc/usage.md file describes it fairly well. Or you can grab the HTML page from the demo site and use that, probably.

The Tegos Tapes is an interesting example of an obscure and heretofore unreleased Vangelis soundtrack unknown by many of even his most devoted fans.
The Tegos Tapes were produced originally by the Greek medical professional Dr. Stergios Tegos, and contain educational examples of his microneurosurgery work. This VHS set of tapes was not intended for general release to the Public as these training videos were mainly intended for student surgeons in training or offered to other microneurosurgeons via Dr. Tegos exclusively.
Dr. Tegos asked his close friend Vangelis to create a background soundtrack to accompany these videos and Vangelis agreed, composing nearly 8 hours of some of his more pleasing and ambient music. Dr. Tegos thought that a background musical score composed and performed by Vangelis himself would ease the monotony and dryness of the subject matter and help the viewer to focus more effectively.
This music was lost to obscurity for years because of the esoteric and hard to find nature of the videos. Now they have been ripped from the original content for all to enjoy. The voiceovers of Dr. Tegos have been removed and you will only hear pure Vangelis.
"I started listening to hardcore / breakbeat in 1991, going to raves and buying tapes and getting tapes off mates. It was a big disappointment around 1993/4 when the Scottish scene split. The old hardcore / breakbeat was gone up here in Scotland and our scene moved to the bouncier harder style. Don't get me wrong, I loved it for a few years until 1997 when it just got too fast and the raves were playing mostly gabba. I stopped going to raves early 1997. Around 2004 I found some old rave tapes in my parents house and listened to them. Fell in love again and started to roam the internet to find some of the tapes I used to listen to. Found a website (am sure it was called Hardcore Will Never Die) and they had tape rips from a lot of English raves. I started to download from there and it spiralled."
