Of course I indulged in my favourite Christmas oddities this week, but I also delighted in a new cover by Marit Larsen and put on each of Eyes For Telescopes’ albums.

I enjoyed becoming acquainted with the new Juliana Hatfield album and taking in the new and old Christmast songs from The Crüxshadows this week.

I was caught up in revisiting a favourite album, Bike for Three’s More Heart Than Brains, again and being taken back to some old memories during the week of my birthday.

Today, I didn't feel like programming on "work" stuff, so I took a detour in how to build Firefox extension.

One of my oldest projects is a small user daemon for linux for scrobbling to #lastfm and #listenbrainz based on MPRIS track information from players.

One thing that bothered me for a long time about browsers' MPRIS integration is that they don't offer very good data for websites in general, and for Bandcamp in particular.

So today I embarked on the quest to write a small addon to extract this track information from Bandcamp and expose it correctly through MPRIS so I can finally scrobble my occasional listens properly.

passa dall’hip-hop con Fischmob a Hamburg all’electronic alternativo puro...

What IMHO made the (early?) #LastFM recommendation algorithm so good was how simple it was basically:

- These are the people who are listening to some of the same artists as you (and how much of an overlap you have).
- And these are the artists/songs they listened to, that you haven't.

It seemed pretty organic and similar to what you'd learn by discussing music with others.

As the end of the Year is approaching and I and many other peoples are posting their yearly stats, this Yearly Hitlist from #LastFM feel appropriate for #MondayRandon10

Dear #music #LazyWeb,

many years ago (before its acquisition), I was a big fan of #LastFM. To this day it was the best music recommendation system I ever used. Deezer's (and I hear Spotify's), doesn't come anywhere close.

I would like to find something to fill that void - to help me find artists that I would otherwise not, based on what I listen to.

What is a good option these days?
