Custom Audio websites

These websites treat sound as part of the design, with custom soundscapes, interface sounds or interactive music, built for the site rather than dropped in as a background track.

Browsers keep sites silent until the visitor chooses to listen, so the best entries make sound an invitation: a clear toggle, audio that responds to scroll or interaction, and an experience that still works with sound off. The jury rewards original sound design that deepens the brand and penalises audio that surprises or annoys.
