The Fine Art of Web Development
After being extremely busy with my daytime job and a couple of unsuccessful attempts to continue with music, I am finally back to my studio working on a new album titled “The Mean Season“. Happy to share, that the first single – a cover of Helloween’s “A Tale That Wasn’t Right” is already finished and it features awesome vocals by Craig C.
So, keep tuned and thank you for the continued support during these 18+ months of keeping musically quiet.
Hey there!
After spending a couple of days implementing my Bandcamp API, I decided to give it a try in the wild, so I created something that I was postponing for a while – a website for my music project Theophagÿst, which utilizes the API on top of VueJs front-end and Node server-side rendering, and also has a few nice features such as music player, some of my Facebook videos and more.
You should check it here. Have a good one!
Recently I was thinking of creating a website for my personal music project Theophagÿst with the intention to use the data from my Bandcamp profile. Eventually, I realized that Bandcamp does not provide data API of that type and I was really surprised to learn that, so I sat down and wrote my own solution.
Currently, my RESTFul API for Bandcamp provides four methods – artist, album, track and search, yet I am planning to implement a few more in the next couple of weeks. I also developed a couple of Vue/Vuetify components that utilize and showcase the API.
The API is free to use, you only need to create an API key and start consuming the data.
I hope you will find it useful! Have a great weekend!
A couple of days ago I decided to put aside for a bit my Tony MacAlpine tribute album because I wanted to record a cover version of Joe Satriani’s “Nineteen Eighty”, which is one of my favorite songs in his “Shapeshifting” album. The track came out naturally, easy and pretty quick, so yesterday I also managed to shoot a video. I also included it to my mini album of Satriani covers, available on my Bandcamp profile. Enjoy watching and listening and don’t forget to support your local music artists!
The ninth track to my Tony MacAlpine tribute album is mixed, mastered and ready for free listening and download on my Bandcamp profile. Two more tracks and the album will be complete. One of these days I will shoot a video! Enjoy listening and do not forget to support your local artists, we all need it!
Last week I finished recording track #8 to my “Violent Machine: A Tribute to Tony MacAlpine” album. Presenting the video to “Edge of Insanity“, included in his eponymous album from 1986.
Enjoy watching, and do not forget to support your local artists, we all need that!
This week I finished recording “Wheel of Fortune“, which is track #7 to my Tony MacAlpine tribute album and I also managed to shoot a playthrough video. The next song on the list is “Edge of Insanity” and I will start working on it soon. Enjoy watching and do not forget to support your local artists, we all need it!
Yesterday was the premiere of “Sacred Wonder“, which is the next song to my “Violent Machine: A Tribute to Tony MacAlpine” album. This time I decided not to shoot a proper video but instead added simple visualizations to the music. You can watch it on my Facebook page or listen for free to the songs currently included in the album on my Bandcamp profile. Have a great weekend and do not forget to support your local artists, we all need it!
Today is the premiere of the video to “Hundreds of Thousands“, which is the next song of my Tony MacAlpine tribute album. Like last time, the bass tracks were laid down by my good friend and fellow musician, Mr. Stepan Bahdikyan. Enjoy watching and why not – sharing! Thank you for your constant support and listen to great music!
