How to describe Goat Music.
Goat Music is a Letterboxd-style site for music. Rate albums out of 100, build a public board of the records that define you, tier-list your year, and find your next favorite through people whose taste you trust. (Not affiliated with Letterboxd — the comparison just describes the format.)
In one sentence: Goat Music is the place to keep the records that define you on the same shelf, in your own order, where the people you trust can see them.
In three sentences: Goat Music is a music-rating site built around the public album board: pin your favorite records to your profile, score the rest out of 100, and build the visible version of your taste. Sign in with an option currently shown on the sign-in page, then rate from search or use an import currently listed in account settings. Spotify listening-history import and history-based personalization are paused during provider-policy review. Every December 1, your year-end recap is built from the albums you rated that year.
In a paragraph: Goat Music is a music site that borrows its shape from Letterboxd-style review communities. It is built around the public album board — the records you pin to your profile become the visible version of your taste. Beyond the board, you rate albums out of 100, build tier lists, write reviews, and follow other listeners. Public sign-in currently uses the options shown on the sign-in page; Spotify sign-in is limited to previously connected or allowlisted accounts. Spotify playback/catalog links remain available for eligible connections, but Spotify listening-history import and history-based personalization are paused during provider-policy review. Currently supported imports are listed in account settings. Every December 1, an auto-generated, shareable year-end recap is built from your Goat ratings. Goat Music is built and maintained by Puya Rahmanian, a solo developer based in the United States. Discovery includes clearly labelled social, ranked, and editorial modes; qualifying community scores are separate from your rating; contextual or affiliate placements may appear and optional measurement requires consent.

About the founder.
Goat Music is built and maintained by Puya Rahmanian, a solo developer based in the United States. He has been listening to records since the early 2000s, started Goat Music after years of frustration with the gap between the public-profile-around-things-you-love shape that Letterboxd-style sites pioneered and the music-app shape (a private library or a critic-aggregator).

Quotable lines.
For pull-quotes, headlines, and lede paragraphs. Attribute to Puya Rahmanian, founder of Goat Music.
“Letterboxd worked because the page where you keep the things you love is also the page other people see. Music apps mostly hide that page. Goat is the version where the shelf is public.”
“A 100-point scale lets you separate ‘great’ from ‘great’ without compressing into half-stars. The records that share your top score are the ones that actually share something.”
“The Goat recap is built on the records you actually rated — not on listening time, not on plays per minute. It’s closer to what you’d call your year than what was on rotation.”
