u-wave

u-wave is a self-hosted “music room” web app for listening together in real time. It lets a group share a queue, take turns DJing tracks, and chat while music plays in everyone’s browser.

Key Features

• Shared, real-time playlist/queue with DJ-style turn taking
• Room chat integrated with the listening experience
• Browser-based audio playback with synchronized room state
• User accounts/roles for managing who can add or play tracks
• Library/search workflow for adding tracks to the queue (depending on configured sources)
• Web-based admin/configuration for running your own room

Use Cases

• Friends/community music rooms for group listening sessions
• Remote parties where multiple people contribute to a shared queue
• Small communities running a persistent “radio” room with live DJing

Limitations and Considerations

• Supported media sources and exact playback capabilities depend on server configuration and available integrations; some setups may require additional components to manage/ingest media.

u-wave fits teams or communities that want a lightweight, browser-based alternative to proprietary group-listening platforms. It focuses on the core “room + shared queue + chat” experience and is best suited to small-to-medium shared listening sessions.
