For real beat-reactive SoundCloud visuals, share this browser tab with its audio.
Use Chrome or Edge. Choose this tab in the sharing window and turn on “Share tab audio.” SoundCloud keeps playing normally.
Right side: switch the entire scene. Cosmic Deck retains the three atmosphere choices at lower left. Alien Rave has its own articulated DJ and dancing crowd. Switching never reloads your track. Keys 4 / 5 switch whole scenes; 1 / 2 / 3 switch Cosmic Deck atmospheres.
Paste a SoundCloud track or playlist on the right and hit Load. Ruffington starts dancing when the embedded player starts, and settles down when you pause.
Timed choreography: works with the SoundCloud player. Set the tempo in Tune, or tap T along to your music. This is animation timed to playback, not analysis of the embedded audio.
Real audio reaction: click Live Audio in Chrome or Edge, select this tab and enable “Share tab audio.” Bass, mids, high frequencies and beat transients then drive the rabbit and stage. Availability depends on the browser, operating system and sharing choice.
Drop an audio file onto the stage, use Local File, or hit Demo for an original synthesized house groove. All three work locally; SoundCloud needs an internet connection. Firefox users can use local files or Demo for real audio reaction without tab sharing.
Ruffington’s existing body, hands, turntables and speakers remain in front while the venue and crowd give way to the real projectM 4.1.7 engine running locally in WebAssembly. Genuine MilkDrop .milk presets change automatically with smooth transitions; press N or the arrow in Acid Orbit for the next preset. Local File, Demo, or shared tab audio feeds real PCM into projectM. Ordinary embedded SoundCloud playback cannot expose PCM, so use Live Audio for true SoundCloud beat reaction.
Paste the full track or playlist address, or the official Share → Embed iframe code. Short share links first need to be opened in your browser so you can copy their full destination URL. No credentials or API key are requested. If the control script cannot load, the official player remains visible for manual playback.
Change the atmosphere on the left. Tune adjusts dancing and effects. Move the pointer for subtle depth. Click the stage for a little cosmic ripple.
Your supplied artwork is animated as a cut-out character with a deformable mesh. No generative video service, account, API key or installation is needed. SoundCloud supplies its own player and may show its own messages or restrictions.
Privacy: no app analytics or recording. Captured audio is analyzed only in this page. SoundCloud's embedded player connects to SoundCloud; local files stay on this device.
