continuous loop
Cycle without end
A continuous loop is a sequence that repeats indefinitely, cycling back to its beginning without interruption.
The term applies to audio or video that plays endlessly, to programming code that runs without termination, or to any self-repeating cycle: The hold music plays on a continuous loop.
In physical form, a continuous loop might be a belt or tape joined end to end.
