How to style the <audio> tag's standard controls
by Peter Cooper

The <audio> tag is an easy way to include audio playback on a page. You can either include it 'headlessly' and control it via JavaScript, or pass along controls="controls" and see a set of default controls:

The default controls save you a lot of work if your design can tolerate them, but if you Google how to style them, everyone says "You can't!" But, it turns out, you can!

CSS filters are a way to apply various types of graphical effect to HTML elements using CSS and are supported by every major browser. So we can take our <audio> tag, colorize it using the sepia filter and then use hue-rotate and other filters to get the basic color scheme we want.

Here's the code on CodePen if you want to play around, and if you get a taste for playing with CSS filters, there's a fantastic guide to more advanced colorization tricks in Color Filters Can Turn Your Gray Skies Blue.
