Track popup overhaul coming soon...

Final version will have more details for each track

Turns out there was an issue with SAMBL's fetching logic (caused by re-using an array) that resulted in a large amount of artists having some missing albums (Issue has been fixed now), but this has been in SAMBL ever since the refactor to Next/React... for almost a year.

So, Apple Music support isn't happening any time soon...

Though... if anyone has a spare key... I wouldn't not be interested...

Artist banners look pretty cool 👀

Also, SoundCloud support coming soon!
Working on adding SC to harmony.pulsewidth.org.uk too!

Dev Update: SAMBL has now been completely abstracted to support different streaming services!

Deezer support is complete with tidal coming soon!

Due note that *some* features might not work with some providers. In this case, you can see the popularity meter is missing from deezer.

Almost done updating the artist page to support multiple providers!

Sidenote: The Deezer API is really easy to work with (The tidal API, less so...)
August 21, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Also also got tidal UPC and ISRC lookup working
August 10, 2025 at 3:11 AM
Tidal Artist Search is now also working!

It was, however, significantly more annoying, due to the really object based way the tidal API is structured.

Deezer Artist search is working!

Individual album refreshing is now working!

Refreshing albums like this will bypass the data cache for MusicBrainz, which should allow for greater cache times. I may add a similar button for entire artists eventually.
July 19, 2025 at 3:15 AM
Getting basic caching working...

MusicBrainz requests will have a cache time of 5 minutes, with basically everything else being cached for half an hour. The refresh button (the one I'm adding) will force fetch instead of the cache.

Beefing with @bandcamp.com rn
