Neat!
Unfortunately you can't leave it running in a different tab. It stops playing when you flip to a different tab to do something else.

Seems to work just fine for me in Firefox.... Though the jumping around can be a little jarring.
I think I can succeed in describing this concisely where Bob couldn't.
Essentially, this is a databse of music that people have uploaded to. When a track is cued up to play, the player calculates likely points to put, quite literally, jumpers in the song that have varying likelyhoods of being used. They can be used going forwards or backwards. The end result is that each time you play a track through, it's always mixed up in a different manner. Oh, and it's a much longer playthrough that it would normally be.
I've had Pacific Rim's main theme playing while I've been writing this and it's been going close to ten minutes now, with no signs of stopping anytime soon.
EDIT: If you click on the TUNE button in the upper-right corner (visible only after a song has been cued up to play) you can adjust the probability of the branches - how frequently they're used, how frequently they appear, if they can be used to jump backwards as well as forward, if you want only longer skips, etc.
