Server for the ListenBrainz project

Website | Documentation | Bug tracker

ListenBrainz keeps tracks of what music you listen to and provides you with insights into your listening habits. We're completely open-source and publish our data as open data.

You can use ListenBrainz to track your music listening habits and share your taste with others using our visualizations. We also have an API if you want to do more with our data.

ListenBrainz is operated by the MetaBrainz Foundation which has a long-standing history of curating, protecting and making music data available to the public.

For more information about this project and its goals, look at our website, specifically the goals page.

Changes and other important announcements about the ListenBrainz services will be announced on our blog. If you start using our services in any production system, we urge you to follow the blog!

All of our data is available for commercial use. You can find out more about our commercial use support tiers on the MetaBrainz site.

If you are interested in helping out, consider donating to the MetaBrainz Foundation.
