Sleevetap  ยท  PixelFox Studio

Your record collection, playable.

Connect Discogs. Every record on your shelf becomes a link you can play โ€” on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer or Tidal.

Why this is harder than it sounds

Looking up the barcode printed on the record you own 12.3%
Looking up the CD reissue of the same album 77.7%

The barcode on a record sleeve identifies a pressing. No streaming service indexes pressings. Finding the edition they actually carry is the whole problem โ€” and it's why your collection isn't already playable.

How it works

  1. 01

    Connect Discogs

    Read-only. Your collection, as you already catalogued it.

  2. 02

    Your shelf appears in about ninety seconds

    Even a nine-thousand-record collection. Matching keeps running in the background.

  3. 03

    Tap a record, it plays

    Or export the whole shelf as a playlist.

What it won't get right

On a real 439-record collection we match 88% of albums. The rest fail for reasons worth naming, because most of them aren't fixable by better software โ€” the record simply isn't on streaming as pressed.

Splits โ€” two bands sharing one record map to a playlist
Live-only pressings, demos, test pressings map to a playlist
12-inch singles and EPs map to a track
Anything we simply get wrong you correct it

You can point any record at any album, playlist or track. Corrections stick โ€” and they make the match better for everyone who owns the same pressing.

For developers

The matching runs as an API. Send a barcode, an artist and title, or a tracklist; get back streaming links, the confidence, and which signal matched. Built on public-domain catalogue data, so there's no per-lookup licence to worry about.
