CoolModFiles is a web player that will introduce you to the most obscure and legendary tracks hosted on the internet's biggest module archive, modarchive.org!
The web player works by simply fetching a random module from modarchive.org and playing it. No black magic involved!
The idea for CoolModFiles originated among two programmer friends who used to send mod files to each other, which lead to the creation of a personal mod archive - one which had hundreds of cool modules at the time! Being in possession of those rare works of art (all the way from 80s!) was a privilege... When the awesome tracks started piling up, however, it naturally brought about a storage problem. The solution was simple: using a web archive!
The programmer friends' idea, unfortunately, was beaten by modarchive.org many years ago. Realizing how unnecessary creating another internet archive was, the project evolved into a cool web player instead. A group of 3 came together to create what is known today as CoolModFiles.com. With it's modern look, it continues to surface thousands of long-forgotten mod files to introduce newer generations to the world of old-school digital music.
I'd love a setting for like "x% of plays should be in the top Y% of popularity" to guarantee some bangers every now and then. Or the bottom, if you're just 2kool4us.
To introduce someone new to the format, say, 100% of plays should be in the top 5%, melt their face off and then let 'em explore the obscure stuff later.
