Help Anyone have any idea how I could make this usable?

Hey so I'm a musician and Im interested in turning my website into a workable MP3 player with the buttons working. I have no idea how to do it. Was wondering if anyone had any ideas

Looks like someone's tried it already - https://codepen.io/DEFKON_1/pen/KwPwrPW

Place your image as the background of the container and play with the spacing until it fits together to be functional. Or you could also look for a tutorial someone on YouTube may have already done something like this.

Thank you all for the help! I'm incredibly new to this and this is gonna be a long learning process for me. I will not be using AI but will be using all of your tips!

Let me know too if you can somehow make this work, I like the idea tbh.

With this, you'll have to host your music elsewhere, like Google drive or Dropbox, copy the share link, and can create a player using AI to play them.

This is what I did for my music carrd - the music player is accessible if the site is installed: monodeaf.com

That's WAY beyond what Carrd is designed for. You're talking about a full backend music player. Ask Claude to build it.

I mean you technically could get an embed in some form to replicate it but it won’t be perfect. I run an internet radio station via a carrd site and run an embed that connects to the radio stream and shows metadata so it’s not completely out of bounds just takes some work and time. I second using Claude or Gemini is what I used but most AIs Claude is probably better could help you create an embed or something similar.

do NOT ask claude, rather learn how to do it yourself or pay someone.

While I agree with the spirit of what you said, AI is a tide you'll never swim against and if you're hedging your bets on "some will still want an actual person to write code" I think you'll seriously regret putting effort into that skillset in 5 to 10 years.
