Most of us experience music the same way. Headphones in, screen off, scrolling something unrelated while a song plays in the background.
I wanted to build something that pulled people back into the music itself and not just hearing it, but feeling like the room was part of it.
So I made Flickers. Upload any song, hit play, and your entire screen be it laptop, phone, tablet, doesn't matter it turns into a full-room light source that flickers in real time to the actual beat of your music. No app, no hardware, no DJ lighting rig. The device you're already holding becomes the vibe.
It's built for the moment, not for a dashboard: no login, no signup, nothing to remember. Upload a track and you're flickering in seconds. Alone in your room turning it into a private disco, or with friends who suddenly don't need a Bluetooth speaker light to feel like something's happening.
Under the hood, it's running real-time Web Audio analysis. Actual frequency detection tracking the bass and tempo of whatever you throw at it, entirely in your browser.
Fully responsive across every screen size, because the whole point breaks if it only works on one device.
I built this end-to-end in Figma Make. Design, logic, all of it. I used Claude to think through the trickier parts like why beat detection would lock on perfectly for some songs and drift on others, and how to fix it and turned that thinking into the prompts that shaped the build.
Figma Make took it from there, understanding what I needed and actually delivering it.
The way the flickers shift and pulse in real time with the music feels really intentional, not just a generic waveform effect. Nice touch making it work with uploads too.
The way the flickers sync so smoothly to different frequencies shows real attention to detail, it never feels laggy even on busier tracks.
Dropped in a track and the flickers actually matched the bass drops, which caught me off guard. Kinda mesmerizing to just watch while the song plays.
Uploaded a track and the flickers actually reacted to the bass hits instead of just pulsing randomly. Simple but oddly satisfying to watch while listening.
The way the visuals react instantly to the audio without any lag feels really well engineered. Nice work on making something so responsive feel effortless.
The audio sync is impressively tight, especially on bass-heavy tracks where the flickers really pop without lag. Wish there were a few more preset styles to switch between, but the current ones already feel polished.
