A little fragment of a much bigger #orchestral song I'm working on. I can feel the #metal on my blood (not brass, I mean metal) writing such parts.

Six hours of weird #ChristmasMusic I put together for a friend of my kids
There’s some 🪗 in there over the decades, but mostly a wacky range of rock, pop, western swing, a couple of pretty tunes, RUN DMC make an appearance, along with the Berlin Philharmonic and Charlie Parker, both in modern remixes of holiday classics 🫣
If you’re tired of the same

Can you transcribe from audio files? #AI #mistralai

Screenshot reads:

can you transcribe from audio files?

Yes, I can transcribe audio files! If you upload an audio file (such as a recording, voice memo, or any audio clip), I can transcribe the spoken content into text for you. Just upload the file, and I'll handle the rest.

What file format?

I can transcribe audio files in common formats, including:
• MP3
• WAV
• M4A
• OGG
• FLAC
• AAC
• WebM (audio only)
If your file is in one of these formats, you can upload it, and I'll transcribe the au…

"Dream Of The World"

Dream Of The World

(M: Dennis Plöger, T: Emma Lazarus, Dennis Plöger)

Not like the brazen giant of greek fame
with conquering limbs astride from land to land.
Here at our sea-washed sunset gates shall stand
a mighty woman with a torch.

Whose flame is the imprisoned lightning
and her name Mother of Exiles.

You can live if you want to be free
in the land of the thousand dreams.
You can breath really free, if you only mind to see,
stand together, help each other, be as one.

From her b…

A bootleg iPhone 2G in the music app, playing an MP3 of “She” by Groove Coverage. The file name consists of random numbers, the phone’s carrier is shown as “FurbNet”, and after a bit the camera pans around to show a DIY 2G network setup, before going back to the phone.

The U.S. patent for mp3 audio was granted on November 26 in 1996. This piece is kinda weird about it in spots, but it gives a decent history about how it laid the foundations for peer-to-peer music sharing, etc.

The U.S. patent for MP3 audio was granted on this day in 1996 — laid the foundations for peer-to-peer music sharing, iTunes, and today's streaming services
The Fraunhofer Institut had been working on its lossy audio compression tech for phone line transmission since 1977.

In case you ever wondered how album covers are embedded in audio files:
MP3 supports it since ID3v2.3. The "attached picture" frame can have one of 20 predefined types. (Front, Back, …)
FLAC has a METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE which has a very similar structure to the ID3 tag. It supports the same 20 types.
OGG only supports it indirectly through VorbisComments. Convention is to use the FLAC format, but Base64 encoded.
AAC only supports it through a video stream.…

« Nicht alle Männer » gilt nicht für die Waadtländer Staatsanwaltschaft. Generalverdacht gegen alle Kantonsräte, die vorgeladen wurden. Es ist ein Versuch des Regierungsrates, den Kantonsrat einzuschüchtern. Denn die Steueraffäre ist ein Staatsskandal. Dass der Staatsanwalt mitmacht, spricht nicht für die Unabhängigkeit der Justiz.
