track-explorer

track-explorer is a tool that uses data available on 1001 Tracklists to recommend similar tracks.

It finds all tracklists that contain a given track, and then scores each track in those tracklists according to their distance in the tracklist from the input track.

Usage

First, find the track you want to search for on 1001 Tracklists and copy the slug from the URL.

For instance, given the URL:

http://www.1001tracklists.com/track/81480_octane-dlr-break-murmur/index.html

The slug would be 81480_octane-dlr-break-murmur.

Then pass that slug as a command line argument to track-explorer.rb:

λ ./track-explorer.rb 81480_octane-dlr-break-murmur
     Inf    Murmur - Octane & DLR & Break
    7.21    Drift - Metrik
    5.32    Dustup - Noisia & The Upbeats
    4.13    Automatic - Wilkinson
    3.13    Elevate This Sound - Calyx & TeeBee
