Hey folks, I'm the creator of the site and the music on it. I'm happy people are enjoying the music. I see some people are having a rough time on mobile devices so I wanted to help with that. I have found that iOS Safari will mute the site if you have your iPhone in silent mode (there might be a way for me to fix this but I haven't explored it much yet).

Came here just to say how clear your website is. The music itself is great - been listening for quite a while. Thanks for this.
It would be nice to have a way to auto-play each piece (something like https://somafm.com/player/#/now-playing/dronezone) so that I can start the music automatically (e.g. from a script) without having to click.
I just left a top-level comment, but this is an old topic now so I don't know if you'll see it -- I wanted to thank you for making this and releasing it for free; it really helped me to find the kind of calm concentration that usually eludes me.
You're very welcome, I'm glad you're enjoying the music and thank you for commenting. I'm excited some people are offering to pay for the site but I intend to keep all of the music free so as many people can enjoy it as possible. I also like to listen when I need to concentrate. That's really the reason I made the site, so I have something to listen to while I work.
You could keep the site free while still allowing people to pay for it if they want to.
(A service like Liberapay might make this easy for you to do.)
It is very good! Tried it yesterday, and opened again today. Now I want is as a soundtrack for my life :D You should totally publish a Desktop app which loads on system boot! Also, did you think of partnering with one of these relaxation or meditation apps?
btw, I can help build and publish a small iOS app, if you're interested

Do you have any plan to make this works as a progressive web app? Would really enjoy having this on my phone, and optionally have it works while offline (with cached files, etc).
Thanks for this, I've been using it since yesterday :)

Thanks for explaining how to make it work on iPhone. Adding a notice message for iPhone users to disable silent mode on their phone would be good since I would have never guessed.

Thanks, glad you like it! Have you tried using it offline? It should already work as you described, though I have to admit I've only tested in Chrome. The caveat is that you can only play songs offline if they were played online once before. I realize none of this information is communicated in the app, I need to do a better job of that.

Agreed, I'll either be fixing it or including some explanation in the next release. Thanks!
