Been looking into a @mixcloud.bsky.social provider... could be quite interesting for event data seeding...

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.

Dev Update: SAMBL SoundCloud support is finished! Just waiting a little bit to push the Update and finalize a few things until I finish adding SoundCloud to harmony. Im making good progress, but learning how harmony's code works while making something new takes a minute.

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 26/09/2025

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.

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 21/08/2025

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...)

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 22/07/2025

Dev note: For SAMBL, I want to focus on starting to integrate more streaming services For sure planned (Already have keys/libraries): - Deezer - Tidal Waiting on keys/libraries: - @bandcamp.com (Doesn't have an actual API) - Qobuz (Playing hard to get) - Apple Music - Amazon Music (Closed Beta)

Version 2.1.0 has been released! - Added Quick Fetching - Added album refreshing - Added caching - Improved API stability See full changelog here: github.com/Lioncat6/SAM...

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 19/07/2025

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.

010

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 13/07/2025

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.

SAMBL @sambl.lioncat6.com · 08/07/2025

New SAMBL Update! (2.0.9) - Add more error handling to the `/find` page - Updated /find api endpoint to return an object with data and issues - Updated find page front end to read the issues and display them as toasts - Added support for a mastodon verification URL - Because why not
