What is it with these strange pictures by the songs of music reviews?
- 15/07/2008
Long title, I know, sorry.
But I decided not to name it “Amarok Moodbar in my music reviews” because, most won’t know what that it means and to explain that is the aim of this post.
There is a great open source music player called Amarok (for Linux and Unix) and there is a plugin for Amarok called Moodbar, it gives Amarok the ability to produce a specific color-pattern for every song, which allows the user to better find specific points in the song. Or less scientiffically: If I want to easily find a guitar solo in a song, I just have to look at the Moodbar and will (after some getting used to) be able to find the start of the solo.
You can read about the concept behind the moodbar, and how it is generated in this paper.
