The Infinite Jukebox

The Infinite Jukebox is a web app that allows songs to branch to other similar "beats" in the song creating new loops and allowing the song to continue indefinitely. It was created by Paul Lamere at a periodic music hacking conference called Music Hackday; Lamere is the Director of Developer Platform for The Echo Nest, which is a primary sponsor for Music Hackday, and he has a pretty cool blog called Music Machinery.

You can run your own music, should, for example, you be either a teen girl or particularly tone deaf and want to hear One Direction over and over, or you can listen to my favorite (here), Superstition. I mean here.

OR, if you're really a masochist, you can list to Gangnam Style looping in and out over and over and over. This was the predecessor of The Infinite Jukebox. Evidently, Lamere was so pleased with that he created this current project. Please direct all complaints to him.
