Lidify - Feature Overview
A self-hosted music streaming platform with intelligent discovery, podcast support, audiobooks, and a unique vibe-matching system.
Music Discovery
Discover Weekly - AI-generated weekly playlists based on your listening history. Customize parameters like track duration and date ranges to fine-tune your discoveries.
Smart Mixes - Automatically generated playlists including era-based mixes (90s, 2000s), genre mixes, top tracks, rediscover mix (songs you haven't played in a while), and artist similarity mixes.
Library Radio Stations - One-click radio modes including Shuffle All, Workout (high energy), Discovery (lesser-played gems), and Favorites (most played). Genre and decade-based radio stations are dynamically created from your library.
Similar Artists & Recommendations - Powered by Last.fm integration, discover artists similar to ones you love and get personalized recommendations based on your listening habits.
The Vibe System
Vibe Button - The standout feature. While listening to any track, tap the vibe button to see real-time audio analysis including energy, mood (valence), danceability, tempo, and arousal levels displayed on a visual radar chart.
Keep The Vibe Going - Uses ML mood predictions (Happy, Sad, Relaxed, Aggressive, Party, Acoustic, Electronic) to queue tracks that match your current vibe with a match percentage score.
Mood Mixer - Create custom playlists by adjusting mood sliders or using presets like Happy, Energetic, Chill, Focus, or Workout. The system finds tracks in your library matching your desired vibe.
