by default plyr.fm now shows top tracks over the past month instead of all time

new default time period for “top tracks”

plyr.fm @plyr.fm · 13/09/2026

two more details - default visibility can be configured in plyr.fm/portal, which will apply to all tracks unless you override them - you can change these settings at any time for tracks you’ve already posted

SANTA MONICA, Calif. and NEW YORK, N.Y., SEPTEMBER 10, 2026 — Universal Music Group (UMG), the world leader in music-based entertainment, and ElevenLabs, the leading AI audio research and product company, today announced a multi-year licensing agreement and wider strategic collaboration to launch a new AI-powered music platform for fans as well as to jointly develop AI audio products for artists and songwriters.

The groundbreaking agreement – ElevenLabs’ first with a major label – encompasses licensing and product development. It reflects the companies’ shared commitment to the principles that AI-enabled music innovation should be built responsibly, respect human artistry, and enable artists and songwriters to share in the value created.

The ElevenLabs-UMG relationship will begin with a new AI-powered music creation platform built on licensed music and artist participation. Now in development, the platform will give fans new ways to co-create with music from participating artists and songwriters, including through remixes and mashups, new track interpretations, and personalized vocal experiences. The agreement also includes the development of additional products and fan experiences in the months and years to come.

“The most exciting possibilities for AI and music are those that put artists, songwriters, and fans at the center,” said Sir Lucian Grainge, Chairman & CEO, Universal Music Group. “UMG and ElevenLabs are aligned that responsible AI can inspire discovery, deepen engagement between artists and fans, and unlock new revenue opportunities for the creative community. ElevenLabs’ leadership in AI audio brings a new dimension to our growing ecosystem of partners committed to expanding what’s creatively and commercially possible for human artistry.”

“AI opens up incredible possibilities for interacting with our favorite music and artists,” said ElevenLabs cofounder and CEO Mati Staniszewski. “By combining UMG’s global community and rights management expertise, …

you can now more easily download audio for tracks! (as long as the track is on the PDS, ie not support-gated or restrictively copyrighted [for now 🫪, permissioned spaces will change this])

smol milestone! thanks for trying out plyr.fm everyone :)

Two charts of plyr.fm's audience over the last 30 days, styled as dark terminal-like panels. Top: a teal line chart of unique visitors per day, ranging from about 550 to a peak of 1,599, higher in early July and settling around 600–850 by August. Bottom: an amber bar chart of signed-in listeners per day, between 2 and 17, with 90 distinct people across the month.

Two charts of plyr.fm's system load over the last 30 days. Top: requests per day as two lines — teal for requests served at the Cloudflare edge (roughly 10k–20k, with one burst near 96k that was absorbed at the edge and never reached the app) and amber for requests that reached the app (roughly 2k–10k); the shaded gap between them is what the cache absorbs. Bottom: a teal bar chart of GB served per day, 2 to 13 GB, totaling 190 GB with about 74% of bytes served straight from cache.

A dark stat card for plyr.fm reading "your audio, in your PDS — 30 days of listening", with six metric tiles: 1,599 peak visitors in a day; 90 signed-in listeners this month; 553k requests served; 190 GB streamed; 74% of bytes from cache; ~$68 a month, all in.

ty for reporting @whereditgo.diamonds and @brookie.blog i think both reports were symptoms of the same excessive transparency when using the now playing background setting fix should now be live! lmk if you're seeing anything weird

you can now replace the audio file associated with tracks! plyr.fm saves revisions of tracks so you can restore them later

plyr.fm/portal inside the track edit modal

choose a new file, then confirm. uploading runs in the background and the previous audio is kept in version history so you can roll back. likes, comments, plays, and the track URL stay the same.

in addition to the existing "exclude by tag" filter, you can now filter down to tracks that have a given tag (or set of tags) from the homepage. if you select multiple tags, it will show tracks with any of those tags (i.e. OR, not AND)

uploading flacs is now allowed for everyone! just make sure your PDS can hold the blob (if it can't it will get uploaded to plyr.fm -managed blob storage and you can migrate it later in plyr.fm/portal)

https://plyr.fm/track/839 is a flac, so shows as lossless

1. upload audio as blob directly to my PDS 2. create fm.plyr.track on my PDS referring to that blob 3. this new track is indexed by plyr.fm * 4. deleting the record from PDS deletes it from plyr.fm

this has been around for a while, but you can filter tracks by tag from feeds (more on track feeds later!) by default, tracks tagged with "ai" and "ai-slop" are hidden from the latest tracks feed, but you can edit this at any time and it will be persisted for authenticated users

lossless audio coming to plyr.fm! .flac / .aiff uploads will be transcoded to .mp3 for portability while keeping the og format around for exports or if you happen to be in safari / a native context that supports it! looking for early testers - DM me for access to try it out!
