Start playingFree 路 no sign-up 路 Chrome or Edge for pads
Play what lights up
A grid shows which pad to hit on each beat. Start with kick and snare, then add hi-hats, rim and more.
A calm coach
After each round the coach shows if you were early, late or on the beat, with one tip at a time.
Song journeys
Pick a length and the groove changes by itself, from a simple start to a full beat and back to rest.
Genres
- Lofi (free): Rainy Window, Sunday Tea, Night Bus, Handpan Drift.

What you need
A computer with Chrome or Edge. A USB drum pad or e-drum kit if you have one, and headphones if you like. Turn the pad's own sound down: the page makes the sound and plays the song.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes. Lofi, with all its songs, levels and the coach, is free with no sign-up. More genres (Chill jazz and bossa, Meditation and ambient) will be part of a one-time All access pass.
Do I need a drum pad?
No. You can play with your computer keys: Z kick, X snare, C hi-hat, V open hat, B rim, N tom, M crash. A pad feels much better, and any USB MIDI pad or e-drum kit works.
Which pads and kits work?
Anything that sends MIDI over USB: finger drum pads like the Yamaha FGDP-50 or Akai MPD, pad keyboards like the MPK Mini, stick pads like the Alesis SamplePad, and e-drum kits like the Alesis Nitro or Roland TD-07. Click a drum under Your pads and hit the pad you want for it. The page remembers it.
Does it work on an iPad or in Safari?
Not with a pad yet: Safari and every browser on iPad and iPhone can't read MIDI. Use Chrome or Edge on a computer. On other devices you can still play with the keys.
Is anything sent anywhere?
No. Your hits stay on your computer, and your settings are saved in your own browser.
