Lofi Beats — original lofi and retro background music for the classroom

Calm classroom music without the ads

Lofi Beats gives your classroom a calm, focused soundtrack — original lofi generated live in the browser, so nothing is streamed to your whiteboard. That means no adverts cutting in mid-lesson, no suggested videos, and no copyright worries: just endless, gentle music that's never the same twice. Pick a scene to set the mood — each with its own ambient layer like rain on the window, birdsong or vinyl crackle — set the volume under the level of working chatter, and let the animated cassette, visualiser and clock give the board something calm to show during independent work, soft starts and wet play.

Frequently asked questions

Is Lofi Beats free?

Yes — it's one of Sage Teachers' free-to-try classroom apps. Sign in and press play.

Where does the music come from?

It's generated live in your browser — original, endless lofi that's never the same twice. Nothing is streamed, so there are no ads, no interruptions and no copyright worries on the classroom screen.

Will adverts interrupt it like YouTube?

No. Unlike streaming a lofi channel, nothing external plays on your whiteboard — no ads, no suggested videos, no surprises.

What can I change?

Pick a scene to set the mood — each has its own feel and ambient layer like rain, birdsong or vinyl crackle — and set the volume to sit under working chatter.

When would I use it in class?

Independent work, calm starts and ends of the day, wet play, art lessons, or any time the room needs settling.
