The live Last.fm map
Scrobbling tells you what you listen to. BeatSphere shows you who else is listening — a real-time map of Last.fm scrobblers (and Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music listeners) around you and across the world.
What you can do with it
- See now-playing tracks of listeners near you, live.
- Get a taste match score with anyone on the map, built from real scrobble history.
- Watch listening heatmaps: which neighborhoods play what, and how it shifts through the week.
- Chat with people whose taste overlaps yours — global chat and DMs.

BeatSphere shows what people are listening to near you, in real time. Your exact location is never shared. Others see a randomized spot inside an area you choose, never where you actually are.

Frequently asked questions
- Is there a map of Last.fm users?
- Yes — BeatSphere plots Last.fm scrobblers on a live world map. Connect your Last.fm account and your now-playing track appears for nearby listeners, while your exact location stays private.
- Does it only work with Last.fm?
- No. BeatSphere also connects Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music, so you can see listeners who don't scrobble too.
- Does the map show my real location?
- No. Your exact location is never shared. Others see a randomized spot inside an area you choose, never where you actually are.
- Can I compare music taste with someone on the map?
- Yes. Tap any listener to see a taste match score based on shared artists and genres, computed from real listening history.
