Your physical media collection, alive.
Track every spin. See what friends are playing. Sync your Discogs collection and finally give your records, CDs, and cassettes the listening diary they deserve.
Everything a Collector Needs
Built by collectors, for collectors. Every feature designed around how you actually listen.
Your Discogs Collection, Supercharged
Connect your Discogs account and watch your entire collection appear — cover art, metadata, tracklists, and all. No manual entry. No spreadsheets. Just your records, beautifully organized and ready to spin.
Log Every Listen
Drop the needle, log the spin. Rate each session on a 5-star scale and jot down a note about how it hit you that day. Ratings are per-spin, not per-album — because your 30th listen might land differently than your 1st.
See What Friends Are Spinning
Follow fellow collectors and discover what's on their turntable right now. A real-time feed of spins from the people whose taste you trust — it's like crate digging through your friends' listening habits.
Scrobble Your Physical Media
Bridge the analog-digital gap. Gave It A Spin auto-scrobbles your listening sessions to Last.fm, so your record, CD, and cassette plays finally show up alongside your digital ones. One complete listening profile.
Know Your Listening Habits
See your most-spun records, highest-rated albums, and 30-day listening stats at a glance. Discover patterns in your own taste you didn't know were there. More stats and insights are coming soon.
QR Codes for Quick Logging
Generate a QR code for any release, print it, and tuck it into the sleeve. Next time you play that record, scan the code with your phone and log your spin in seconds — no searching, no scrolling.

Auto-scrobble your physical media listening sessions
Built for the people who still press play on purpose.
Gave It A Spin is a small, intentional community of listeners who care about the physical experience of music. No algorithms deciding what you should hear. No autoplay. Just people who love dropping a needle, loading a disc, or pressing play on a tape — and paying attention.
Control who sees your listening activity with public or private profiles. Follow the collectors who inspire you. And when someone in your feed spins something you've never heard — go dig for it.
