Yep, this is actually on the cards. I've got nowplaying info returning spotify links to artist's tracks. The problem with bandcamp is they closed their API a long time ago, so i gotta manage my records semi-manually


salute Godspeed.

I wonder if it's something you could crowdsource -- if you have a list of your collection, you could just put the titles in a doc or something and let people have at it.

[EDIT] BTW I just started playing with the EQ. WOW that is a fantastic feature. Such a simple thing and I love being able to turn up the low range/high range as I like. Another level, because almost always I want more bass.

[EDIT2] Granted I don't go to music sites that much on the internet, this is happiest I've been with a site like this since Madeon's Adventure Machine[0].

Yeah have thought about it, we have a fairly large community on discord that could help out too. I didn't want people clipping their signal too hard with the EQ, hence the current limit. I'd probably need to think about adding a limiter for the sake of people's speakers.

You can instead turn ethe other frequencies down and then your volume up, same effect ;)


Oh yeah that's exactly what I did... Put everything down, then turned somethings up (and also found the bass limits of my Sony WH-1000XM2s :)

Out of curiosity, was this before or after the Epic acquisition?


Well before, some stray dev API keys were floating around (they never fully turned the API off, just stopped providing keys) but i think its mostly dead now. I was hoping Epic would get the API back up and running.
