Clashfinder generator

[wellysplosher]

Here's something I've written that will generate your Clashfinder for Glastonbury (or other festivals!) .

It works best with a Last.fm account, but also works with a Spotify account.

Hope someone finds it useful!

That is pretty fucking clever!

[Ashl]

Very good, Last.FM used to have a similar feature but you have gone well beyond what they produced!

[ghostdancer1]

nice!

[wellysplosher]

Thanks!

I noticed a few people were getting errors when using a Spotify account, these should be fixed now and if this happened to you, feel free to try again

Very nice, thank you.

If you are looking for suggested enhancements then a filter based on number of appearances would be good and also the ability to suppress or delete unwanted acts from the results too.

My Last.fm account brings up precisely zero bands to see at the festival. So that's me sorted for the festival and without any clashes.

Did it on mobile and it was very interesting but what do the different colours mean? 

[mjsell]

That is fucking cool. Shame I don't listen to much electronic music or Djs through Spotify. It gets a bit lost after the headliners

How much listening time do you need to have for it to register? I don't normally listen to Spotify but went for the premium free trial a few weeks ago for the build up to the fest. I've been listening to a lot of the playlists but the only artist generated are the Kaisers. Not complaining but would be good to see more artists.

It currently works off your own playlists and tracks in your "Songs", unfortantely Spotify dont make your listening history as such available. I am working on a change to make it include other peoples playlists that you are subscribed to though

Excellent stuff

@Brave Sir Robin's playlist would fuck it up for me if you implement this. Every act would be coloured haha.

It didn't for me, although there were a few random contenders thrown in!

[fatyeti24]

his is bloody brilliant!  thanks a lot!

[Ollie9917]

wow this is exactly what I was looking for!!

 

Any chance to put in spotify playlist links ? ?

[stoopid_name]

Thanks very much, very clever. Now I'm off to kick myself for turning off upload of my song played data to LastFM and the list if a snapshot of what I was listening to a couple of years ago

[sheffieldlady]

This is amazing!! Thanks for sharing

[kaytee...]

This is brilliant except if I was to do my clashfinder according to this, I'd have to be in like six places at once every hour of the day 

[DareToDibble]

This is awesome!

[The60ftOctopus]

Awesome! Although why is it recommending I see Kaiser Chiefs and Scouting for Girls? 

[sheffieldlady]

Guilty pleasures @The60ftOctopus??

[HotChipWillBreakYourLegs]

I get this error when trying to use it :s

ERROR- 500 Returned From Server

[simian_mobile_mushrooms]

Anyone else getting Error 500 message? Awesome idea tho, cheers @wellysplosher

[squirrelarmy]

Can this work in reverse? Could you generate a Spotify playlist based on your clashfinder?
