Music Kraken
I am developing my own tool, music kraken. The PyPI build is outdated and doesn't work properly but I will make a new one soon.
Problem I am trying to solve
Even when torrenting or downloading music, the metadata isn't consistent and looks really messy in your music player.
Lyrics are only rarely in the file. The notes contain adds for the page it is downloaded from, which is like fair... but fuck it I don't like it.
So I use web scraping and data structures, to make the metadata consistent. As far as I am aware there is nothing like it.
Functionality
It can download songs from:
and more stuff like bandcamp are yet to come. It can also get additional metadata from musicbrainz, discogs or metal archives. As a matter of fact metal archives is already implemented.
It downloads the audio and converts it to an audio format like mp3, the only limmitation it needs to support ID3 metadata. Then ofc all possible metadatas will be saved and embedet in the file
Interface
