Small Server • Invite Only
Toca Tudo is a free, open-source music player. We integrate Spotify, Last.fm, and YouTube to deliver a seamless experience, hosted entirely on a small, community-driven server.
How It Works100% free to use. Supported by a small, dedicated server and limited to a community by invitation.
Leverage Spotify and Last.fm APIs for rich track information, recommendations, and scrobbling.
Play the audio directly from YouTube content, ensuring a wide and always up-to-date library.
Toca Tudo leverages a robust, redundant workflow to locate and stream audio from YouTube, ensuring high reliability while acknowledging that no system is infallible.
The PHP server requests track information (Artist, Title) from the Spotify and Last.fm APIs.
The server uses the pytubefix library to search YouTube for the track and stream the audio-only portion.
If pytubefix fails, the system automatically switches to yt-dlp to extract audio, ensuring high reliability.
The extracted audio stream is sent back to the client for immediate playback.
Toca Tudo is free, but to ensure performance on our small personal server, new accounts are available only by invitation.
This exclusivity allows us to maintain quality and foster a dedicated community. Want to join?
Request InviteI’m a passionate software developer who built Toca Tudo from scratch, leveraging PHP/Python/Flask for the backend and MySQL for data management. This project is a testament to open-source development and self-hosted solutions.
Toca Tudo isn’t Spotify they’ve got hundreds of engineers, I’ve got coffee and persistence. Still, it plays your music just fine and free.
Entirely coded in Notepad++, a true proof of dedication.
