Tape ideas
Ways to share music with friends
A tape brings everyone’s music choices together, with a note on every pick. Take turns sharing songs, collect ideas freely for a celebration, or find inspiration for your next party.
Make a mixtape online
A tape for one person, with a note on every song. Send one link; they press play.
Music for long-distance relationships
A tape you both add to, across time zones. It waits for whoever's asleep.
A collaborative playlist across apps
YouTube, Spotify, Deezer and SoundCloud in one list, and everyone gets a turn.
Make a shared playlist for your party
One speaker. Everyone gets a turn to add a song from their own phone.
A Spotify Jam alternative for one room
No Premium to join: friends add songs from YouTube, Spotify, Deezer or SoundCloud, one turn each.
Collect song requests for an event
A birthday, a wedding, a big get-together. Gather everyone’s suggestions without turns, then choose what to play.
Build your Halloween party playlist
24 songs, four moods and room for your guests’ picks. Plan the music before the doorbell rings.
Create your wedding playlist
Choose songs for each part of your day, collect requests from your guests, and give your DJ a clear plan.
Make a birthday playlist together
Find songs for the party, invite friends to share their musical memories, and start from the birthday person’s taste.
Make a road trip playlist together
Bring everyone’s songs, plan the quieter stretches, and have the music ready before you leave.
All these ideas use the same free tape. Start one on the Link Tapes homepage, share the link, and friends join with just a name. Songs can come from YouTube, Spotify, Deezer or SoundCloud. The host can set a turn-based pace or let everyone add whenever they want.
Planning a wedding, birthday or road trip? Find song ideas, personal prompts and ways to collect everyone’s picks in the guides below. For a smaller start, make a mixtape for one person before inviting a whole group.
Start with a blank tape
Every idea starts the same way: one tape, one link, one song.
