So I’ve decided that I’m going to write/find a web crawler to find mp3s/ogg etc.. Then rewrite Musotik from scratch. It’ll also crawl torrent sites. I’m working with Sphider right now. It may become the base of my crawler.

After I get the spider wrote, I’ll run it on 3 of the cluster boxes, updating 1 mysql db. The other box will be the main webserver and database server.

  • 12/13/10 2am – Started ripping apart the Sphider script.
  • 12/13/10 2:30am – 3 nodes are indexing to the same DB. Testing with Digg, PirateBay, and Drawgasmic
  • 12/13/10 3:45am – Going to let it index.. here what I have so far:
  • —-Currently in database: 16 sites, 4964 links, 0 categories and 103853 keywords.
  • 12/13/10 4pm – let it run all night/day.
  • —-Currently in database: 16 sites, 32603 links, 0 categories and 278085 keywords.

So its pretty slow with Sphider. I also don’t need everything that Sphider does. I’m trying to decide whether I should write something from scratch or modify Sphider.

My next post will be about that, and probably heavy with PHP code.

Its a trip-Hop morning

Lovage

Lovage is a one-off project headed by Dan the Automator under his alias “Nathaniel Merriweather” (a persona he created for the project Handsome Boy Modeling School). The album is called Music To Make Love To Your Old Lady By, which was a collaboration with Mike Patton and Jennifer Charles (singer with Elysian Fields), who both provide vocals. -last.fm

Lovage – To Catch A Theif

Portishead
Portishead is a band from Bristol, England, named after a small coastal town twelve miles west of said musical hotbed, in North Somerset. They were initially known for their use of jazz samples and some hip hop beats along with various synth sounds and the hauntingly beautiful vocals of singer Beth Gibbons.

Portishead – Wandering Star

Lamb

The most widely-known Lamb hails from Manchester, England, and is commonly associated with the trip-hop genre during the 90s and 00s. They incorporated into their musical style a distinctive mixture of jazz, dubs, breaks, and drum ‘n’ bass with a strong vocal element…

Lamb – Heaven

Lamb – God Bless

And of course….

Massive+Attack

The pioneering force behind the rise of trip-hop, Massive Attack were among the most innovative and influential groups of their generation; their hypnotic sound — a darkly sensual and cinematic fusion of hip-hop rhythms, soulful melodies, dub grooves, and choice samples — set the pace for much of the dance music to emerge throughout the 1990s, paving the way for such acclaimed artists as Portishead, Sneaker Pimps, Morcheeba, UNKLE and Tricky, himself a Massive Attack alumnus.

Massive Attack – Mezzanine
