React + MotionMicrointeractions

Vinyl play/pause

Tap the record: play morphs into pause, the tonearm drops and the vinyl speeds up and slows down with inertia.

Where to use it

This play pause button animation turns a plain toggle into an object: a spinning record with its own tonearm. It suits a band or DJ website, a record shop, a podcast with a retro feel or the player of a music portfolio. The disc takes a moment to reach speed and coasts to a stop, just like a real turntable.

It is only the visual part: it does not play any sound on its own. Hook it to your audio player so the record starts and stops with the track. Swap the label colour for your album cover tone, and edit the song and artist.
