(discussion) An Unofficial Neuro Karaoke Archive

[wide root]

This past week, I've been working on a relatively large labor-of-love project:
Compiling and adding the metadata of every Neuro Karaoke song that I'm aware of!
-# Including a couple that QueenPb forgot in the official archive, and the ARG songs!

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HtzHAPlkpBc0I12tXnn_EtIjGqWOEPOo?usp=drive_link

This, however, does not include any songs that features Neuro that have already been released to other platforms. This means songs like Katiekat's Rolling Girl, Camila's EVIL, and LIFE.

Alongside the songs is also the list of artists whose work I used as album covers for each disc, which I'll name here as well:

• paccha
• kapxaplus
• ppchan
• koilccc
• tanhuluu
  The socials of the artists, as well as links to the original art, are also in the drive! Please check them out!

Please let me know if there's any that I'm missing in here!
-# ...I'll get to renaming the filenames later...

[celest drift]

ooh a properly organized and compiled archive?

[wide root]

doing my best!!

[rustic arch]

I like how my fb2k looks with metadata and covers. Definitely a QoL improvement. Thank you so much!

[wide root]

glad it looks as good as i hoped!!

check out what my phone does to the cover of the arg album

[rustic arch]

What do you think about uploading the archive to the torrent? It will improve download speed and also will make synchronization easier.

Also I can help with adding lyrics to the songs

[wide root]

i... actually have never used torrents before... but having it seeded sounds great

[wide root]

that was another idea i had to cut to make it on time! i was gonna do that later, but that'd be awesome

[wide root]

added pb's mashup and Fallen Kingdom

that cfrb part is going on loop infinitely

[wide root]

i think im stupid actually

• renamed disc 1's Behind Blue Eyes (v1) to Behind Blue Eyes
• ...renamed disc 3's Behind Blue Eyes (v3) to Behind Blue Eyes (Evil)
  -# no seriously, how the fuck did i mess that up?

[wide root]

oh yeah now that im home, i can go put in the christmas duets...

...and this new unreleased blinding lights.....

[lime plover]

Your out here doing God's work, been looking for this

[wide root]

thank you!!

[robust temple]

thank you so much for this

the official archive was a bit hard to navigate

[wide root]

doing my best!

[rain current]

Holy molly this is huge!! Tanks

[wide root]

oh my fucking god theres no way to download youtube clips, have to pull out obs.... gdi

WHAT THE FUCK
(right is neuro, left is the official inst)

im crying

[wide root]

• added the Christmas Duets + the unreleased newest Blinding Lights cover
• ...i put (ft. Vedal) instead of (feat. Vedal) in the Chinatown Blues cover... fixed for consistency

[wide root]

...actually, would you consider these recent songs "V4"? or do you still see it as still V3 but improved since 6 months ago?

[wide root]

nvm i asked nn ill keep labelling songs as v3

[robust temple]

wait I thought I heard vedal play the new ver of blinding lights, do you perhaps remember the date and time? or did I remember wrong

[wide root]

hm?

[robust temple]

oh it's tues vod 8:28 I found it

[agile whale]

thx so much!

[low storm]

i 2nd a torrent, i would totally seed it

[wide root]

ill look into it then

[tribal needle]

I was thinking of perhaps making a website for this some time, basically the point is to make it look better and also make it not require you to navigate through google drive (I cannot navigate that because I never use it). It could also have audio streaming direct from this google drive but I honestly do not know how to implement that so it will definitely have to be a "think later" moment

[low storm]

I mean i'd perfer literally anything other than google drive, I just think torrent was a good idea because then you wouldn't need to worry about services or servers for downloads, the community IS the host

[tribal needle]

fair, fair

I'll probably construct an early "site" at some point

(defo not distracting me from python neuro sdk because I am tilting mentally from that somehow)

probably as soon as I get my new device set up

[tribal needle]

I somehow disregarded the obvious answer of committing the MP3s and PNGs into the repo and just using them from there directly but idk if people will get mad at me for doing that

[wide root]

who would get mad at you for that?

[tribal needle]

reuploading of stuff

[wide root]

wdym

like the album covers?

just make sure to give specific credit when using the art

[opal cipher]

thanks for your hard work, it looks really great

[wide root]

[tribal needle]

and songs, though for some of these they aren't on an archive anyways so 🤷‍♂️

[wide root]

the songs are alright! i already contacted pb and she said it was fine just watch out for any copyright shenanigans if what youre trying to do messes with that

[tribal needle]

👍 time to get to work then

[wide root]

SWARM FM THE WEBSITE /j

[tribal needle]

oh god um

[tribal needle]

about that actually

https://discord.com/channels/574720535888396288/1325835080903561267

[wide root]

oh my god lmao

[tribal needle]

my site was only gonna be the music player 🤣

[wide root]

i mean you could still make the music player

[tribal needle]

yeah

I mean I'm down to split the workload between them and me ig

Also seems like they are hosting it on a YouTube channel, so I can just embed it on the front page of the site being like "swarmFM? sure! here you go!"

[tribal needle]

Any idea what I can use as the site favicon?

(like the icon thing in the browser tab)

[wide root]

make it eliv because i am biased

[tribal needle]

which emote? I need it as a png and I don't think discord will let me download emojis

but maybe I can look around in dev console and find an img link

[wide root]

if youre on desktop, right click the emoji and open link iirc

[tribal needle]

true

which evil emote tho

[wide root]

[tribal needle]

what the hell

[wide root]

the first frame is the only thing that matters lmao

[wide root]

• Added a clarification as to what the archive excludes, just in case of any confusion

[tribal needle]

time to frame-by-frame this thing

also astro is bugging so I have to reset my changes 😭 I found the problematic plugin

[wide root]

...chat i might be stupid

[tribal needle]

?

[wide root]

look at the artists side

fixed it

[tribal needle]

oh

also the karaoke site actually has a structure right now

thx to some help

(I transferred ownership of the site from myself to NeuroFM)

[wide root]

good luck

[tribal needle]

thanks! We're actually like mostly done with it in my opinion, we're just up to styling the webpage - which is somehow going worse than expected

[rustic arch]

is there a site now? can you share the link please

[tribal needle]

Currently don't have a permalink for it yet - will update once we get one for it!

[wide root]

please do

[tribal needle]

👍

Actually I could use some help - does anyone have a list of songs that aren't in the Drive(s)? (So LIFE, Evil, Rolling Girl, Why Do I, etc...)

may or may not be related

[wide root]

...wait is Why Do I not in the archive? oh shit

[tribal needle]

because it's here

[wide root]

oh the will stetson one

real

...i think thats it

• LIFE
• Monster
• EVIL
• Why Do I
• katiekat's Rolling Girl
• technically Numi's Call Me Maybe

[tribal needle]

No MV for the last one, which is fiiiineeeee

we can just take the topic upload for that

[wide root]

[opal cipher]

https://youtu.be/nGmwH2ZYlP4
this one is also not in the drive

[wide root]

i stg it was in there

it shall be added when im able

[tribal needle]

isn't that supposed to not be in there?

[wide root]

specifically my intent was to not detract views from, say, spotify and apple music
those official streaming platforms

this one completely slipped my mind though.....

[tribal needle]

oh

I thought this counted as an "official release" because it was officially released on their yt channel

[wide root]

fair

[tribal needle]

I added a little something to the icon

[wide root]

...the video breaks...?

💀

[tribal needle]

how???

[wide root]

i have No idea

this shit aint loading for me 💀💀💀

[tribal needle]

might be due to encoding or smth idk

[tribal needle]

I literally had to display artists just for this situation

(and a couple more)

[wide root]

yeah 💀

[tribal needle]

small update to the site: some backend changes means we can get rid of the ugly (Covered by x) suffix + download songs(?)

[tribal needle]

update to karaoke site: SImilar to [NeuroFM's landing page](#1325835080903561267 message) I'm considering rewriting the site to Preact so that the bottom player can persist, but I think there can be an argument that it's not necessary since when you switch to another page I'd assume you already don't want to continue hearing the song currently playing

thoughts?
