Poor Claude……..:zipper_mouth_face: :face_without_mouth:

I do a little publicity for myself, since I’ll never make money from music, but that’s also why I love it.

For an instrument so vague, I have never seen the Theramin played so precicely.

Currently on tour with Kylie, sort of impressed by this minimalist musician and her tour CV.

A cold war between entitled tech bro enshitification & probably equally entitled libertarians like us :slight_smile:

I got this message today from:
”RADIOHEAD
Thank you for registering your details for tickets to Radiohead Europe 2025.

Unfortunately, you have not been randomly allocated an unlock code for this Friday’s sale. While every effort has been made to accommodate as many fans as possible, the number of registrations far exceeded the available tickets.”

I am thinking that maybe i’m not the only one here in this situation!

This time, when registrering i was thinking 100%; “I’m on a roll, this time”

Both my wife and I got the same message. Disappointing!

Came across a series of 10 albums Tone Science of works by various artists using modular synths. Loved the album designs too. The YouTube is a compilation of a live event which made up the 8th album.

A while ago I posted a few playlists scraped from this post.

Here is the latest update.

Each playlist is roughly 50 songs (if slightly less, a vid ID was not added for some reason). Note, I just took all the URLs as is. Not sure if time offsets work or not. No quality let alone control of anything :slight_smile:

How I did this …

  1. Export the entire post by "Music is the best" (this is the post URL with /print on the end).
  2. Converted to markdown (just to simplify the text)
  3. Extract youtube links via regex in Notepad++.
  4. Make untitled youtube playlists via this apps.dominicZelek - youtube playlist from links 50 at a time. You can also make untitled playlists via URL manipulation in the form of https://www.youtube.com/watch_videos?video_ids=AwyRYse4kss,<YT IDs>,etc...
  5. Use Multiselect for YouTube™ - Chrome Web Store to select songs from the untitled playlist and save to new public play list.

Nice, I have two questions, and I hope that doesn’t make this an instance of “no good deed goes unpunished“, thank you.

How did you do that? ‘manually’ or ?

What was the regular expression?

Nice, I have two questions, and I hope that doesn’t make this an instance of “no good deed goes unpunished“, thank you.

I will take your “no good deed goes unpunished” and raise you “be careful with what you wish for” :slight_smile:

Intentionally vague as it depends what tools you use and this is 100% using things I’m familiar with and more of a prompt to remind me and inspire anyone interested to expand their skills as I was required to do to complete this task :slight_smile:

Markdown converted using Markdownload extension.

The regex extractions is a bit of a multipass affair.

  1. Use “find all in document” to get each line with a youtube link regex was watch?v=(.*?))
  2. This ends with Line [nnn] some text (youtube link) and some more text \r\n
  3. Just wrote some more regex to get rid of the text before and after the youtube link
    1. Pre text search \tLine(.*?)watch?v= replaced with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=
    2. Post text search \)(.*?)\r\n replaced with with \r\n

I only posted my method as a reminder to myself of how I did this for when I try to remember how I did it to do it again in 2 years time, I don’t spend 2 hours rediscovering how to do it again again :slight_smile: I am sure there are more elegant ways to do this but this is my just good enough to get it done within my own capabilities method.

818

Elegant enough for me, thank you, I’m glad I asked.

Course, in a perfect world, it could go into a Audio Generation alongside internet radio . . .

I got the same, which considering that I first saw them on the “Pablo Honey” tour (Manchester, 1993) is more than a little annoying…
