25 minutes of your song. 5 of silence. Repeat until it ships.
Pick a focus track, set your blocks, and press start: the music loops gaplessly while you work, fades out for the break, and pulls you back in when the next block begins.
Nothing is uploaded — your audio never leaves your device.
Focus is a loop. So is making music.
When a work block ends and the producer itch starts, the studio is one click away — chop the very track you've been looping into a pack. Sign up: 3 full packs free.
Let the music mark the boundary
The pomodoro method lives or dies on honoring the boundaries, and sound is a better boundary than a notification: when the music fades, your body already knows the block ended. The fade-out-chime-fade-in cycle here turns the technique from a timer you obey into a rhythm you inhabit — which is, not coincidentally, how music works too.
Frequently asked questions
Why loop one track instead of a playlist while working?
Familiar, repetitive audio fades into the background instead of pulling attention — that's why film-score and lo-fi loops dominate focus playlists. One track on a seamless loop disappears fastest of all; novelty is the enemy of flow.
What block lengths should I use?
The classic pomodoro is 25 on / 5 off; deep-work folks stretch to 50/10. Both presets are here, plus custom. The honest advice: the exact number matters less than actually honoring the break.
What happens during the break?
The music glides down to silence, a soft chime marks the boundary, and a countdown shows the break. Another chime and a fade-in start the next block — no jarring cuts in either direction.
Does the timer keep running in a background tab?
Yes — timing rides the audio clock, which browsers keep honest even when the tab is hidden. The display may update lazily in the background, but the blocks and fades stay on schedule.
