Hi, I'm Rivers Cuomo. Weezify is a a Spotify-like player for all of my demos (1975-2017). There are close to 3500 of them. You can follow curated playlists. You can create and share playlists of your own. You can even add your own demos. I made this app myself. It took me all of 2021 to make. I'm still tweaking it. I hope you enjoy it.
