Vortexia gives techno and house sets visuals that punch on the kick, and the look on this page runs on the free plan. It is the Burning Ship fractal, listed as Solar Flare in the dashboard and one of the three free engines, glowing neon against a dark core. At 125 to 135 BPM a four-on-the-floor kick lands roughly every half second, and each one sends a punch through the picture that fades in about a fifth of a second, so the screen breathes with the groove rather than flashing. Nothing strobes. Between kicks, the bassline drives the zoom and glow, the mids reshape the fractal, and the hats make the colour pop. It runs for as long as the dashboard tab stays open, so a three-hour set is no different from a ten-minute one. Add it to OBS for a stream, or open Ambient Mode on a club screen.

Frequently asked questions
Does it strobe?
No. Every kick is a pulse that fades over about a fifth of a second, so it moves with the groove without flashing. Glitch / RGB Split adds colour tearing if you want more edge.
Is this look free?
Yes. It uses Solar Flare, the Burning Ship fractal, one of the three engines in the free plan along with Chaos Prime and Neural Drift. The free plan streams at 720p and 30fps with a small watermark.
Will it follow my mix rather than the room?
Set Listening to Music / system and share the tab or screen with audio. In Chrome or Edge on Windows it then hears your mix directly; elsewhere it listens through the microphone.
Can it run on a club screen?
Yes. Open vortexia.live/ambient on a laptop connected to the screen and tap Start. It needs no account, keeps the screen awake and listens through the laptop’s microphone.
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan streams at 720p and 30fps with a small watermark, three engines and Twitch. Plus removes the watermark, renders at 1080p and 60fps, unlocks all eight engines and adds automatic YouTube and Kick events.
