About AlbumLinks

The albums you love, buried

Open a streaming app and it's trending songs, somebody else's playlists, and a row of things it thinks you'll like. The albums you actually play — front to back, on purpose — are three menus deep. And the library holding them belongs to the service: switch, and your favourites stay behind.

One collection, outside any service

AlbumLinks is a home for your albums that isn't Spotify's, Apple's, or anyone else's. Save the records you love, pin the ones you keep coming back to, flip through covers and pick something new, and keep a line or two about the day you played it. Open any album and it plays on whichever service you use. Switch services and the whole shelf comes with you.

It's free, it runs in your browser, and there's nothing to learn. If you love albums, you already know how to use it.

And if you've got records

You can hold a record, but you can't tap it to stream in the car. An AlbumLinks Tag fixes that. Put one on a sleeve, a CD case, a notebook — tap it with your phone and the album opens on whatever service the phone in hand uses. Yours, or a friend's. No app, nothing to install, nobody has to switch. Every tag you link lands in your collection too.

The tag is just the form. A keychain, a card for the merch table, a printed journal with a code on each page — different objects, the same link inside. Every one opens the album, never one service.

What we believe

• The album, whole. Not the track, not the playlist, not the feed. A record is one thing you love, front to back, and everything here treats it that way.
• Yours, not the service's. Your collection sits above every streaming platform and survives switching. We don't host music — we open it where you already listen.
• Every service, any phone. Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, YouTube Music, Amazon Music. Whoever's listening picks theirs. Nobody gets sent to one they don't use.
• Easy, and a little fun. Covers are the interface. Saving, picking, linking a tag — a tap or two each, and none of it feels like filing.
• Built for sharing. Send the album page, or hand someone the record and let them tap it. The album gets to be the unit of sharing again — not a playlist screenshot.
