Every music app funnels you toward what's already popular or what you've already heard. Randomify does the opposite: hit shuffle and get one genuinely random song from the long tail of recorded music, then play a preview or open it on Spotify, Apple, YouTube Music, and more. No account, no cookies, no recommendation engine. The catalog is weighted across every era and genre so you get real discoveries instead of noise, not the same hits on repeat.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Randomify because my listening had quietly shrunk to the same rotation of songs. Every app I used was tuned to play me more of what I already knew, and I missed stumbling onto something out of left field.
So I wanted a shuffle button for recorded music itself, not my library or a recommendation feed. You hit space and get one random song from a big catalog built on MusicBrainz, play a short preview, and open it on whatever service you use. No account, no cookies, no algorithm learning your taste.
The hard part was making random actually enjoyable. My first version pulled uniformly from the catalog and it was mostly unlistenable noise from artists with thousands of obscure uploads. So I built a weighted sampler that balances across eras, genres, and popularity, so you get real discoveries that are still worth hearing.
Would love for you to take it for a spin and tell me what it turns up that you'd never have found. Every song it shows me lately has sent me down a new rabbit hole.

The weighted catalog across eras and genres feels like the right call — got a weird 70s Brazilian MPB track I've never heard of, and that's exactly the point. Simple, no signup, just one click and you're somewhere new.
