I also worked for 8 months on a music discovery webapp called Noiseblend that uses Spotify. We were never accepted for their commercial program and were not allowed to ask for money on the website. Source: about 1 year ago

My most ambitious web project was https://noiseblend.com which is a web app for discovering music on Spotify. It’s a next.js + React slow and memory hungry mess [1] which could have been static HTML with some JS for the dynamic bits. Experience taught me to keep it simple nowadays, but I had to go through the Noiseblend mistakes first. The stack is Python with Sanic for the backend, Postgres for db and Redis for... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

I’m serving everything from the Spotify API directly on Noiseblend (https://noiseblend.com) and rate limit has never been a problem. When a request fails because of a rate limit, Spotify responds with 429 and a Retry-After header so you know when to schedule the next request. In my tests, that header never had a value greater than 10 seconds, and 429 responses were very rare. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

I've been using this site ever since I discovered it! I'm glad to see it featured on HN. I started learning to play the Romanian Kaval [1] last summer and Songdata helped me enormously in finding good backing tracks to improvise on. I'm mostly improvising on chillhop tracks right now because I'm trying to develop less traditional rhythms (although I'm still clumsy with the breathing and knowing when to keep the... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

It's pretty bad sometimes. I've too often typed the artist name followed by the song name, all spelled correctly and not special characters like dashes or anything and it shows up waaay down in the results or seemingly not at all sometimes. Usually it's more obscure songs but not always. As a fallback I have sometimes had to resort to searching on song.link and then following the apple music to open in AM. It's nuts.

I don't control what Songlink supports, but they do show a Bandcamp icon in one of the screenshots on their website: https://song.link. Source: over 1 year ago

I commonly share songs from Apple Music with my friends, but not everyone uses Apple Music, so they have to manually look it up on, for example, on Spotify. In the latest update of my Velja app, which is a browser picker, I added a bonus feature where it automatically converts opened and copied music links (Apple Music, Spotify, etc) to https://song.link. This means the receiver can easily choose what music... Source: over 1 year ago

The quality is actually not that bad. The script doesnt directly search for a given song on YouTube. It uses song.link API to get a clean version of the song. Source: over 3 years ago

If the song is not found on song.link database, asks to download the songs by searching on YouTube or skip the song completely. Source: over 3 years ago
