This game/demo was created in an afternoon at the Google HTML5 Hackathon NYC on Monday August 1st 2011 by Du Hoang (design), Michael Yin (game programming) and me (audio api integration).

Using the new HTML5 Audio API, the game does real-time audio analysis and beat detection on an mp3 file playing in the browser, triggering music bubbles on the beat and changing the game background gradients.

It’s pretty crazy what you can achieve in a few hours of hacking! It was lots of fun.

It requires the latest Chrome Beta. You will also need to enalble the Web Audio API by going to about:flags. See instructions and more examples here.

Based on http://www.propulsionjs.com/ and the HTML5wow GAL 9000 demo.

  • PicardTagger – MusicBrainz – Picard is the next generation MusicBrainz tagging application. This new tagging concept is album oriented, as opposed to track/file oriented like the ClassicTagger was. Picard is written in Python, which is a cross-platform language, and makes use of cross-platform libraries – this allows the same code to run both on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
  • PHP MusicBrainz Library – The PHP MusicBrainz project is a port of libmusicbrainz3 from C++ to PHP. This is so that it can be used as the basis for web services that want to query music meta data, for example Facebook applications.
  • Welcome to MusicBrainz! – MusicBrainz – MusicBrainz is a user-maintained community music metadatabase. Music metadata is information such as the artist name, the release title, and the list of tracks that appear on a release. MusicBrainz collects this information about recordings and makes it available to the public. You can also use the MusicBrainz Tagger to automatically identify and clean up the metadata tags in your digital music collections.

  • RjDj – This looks really really cool. It is an application and system for listening to generative music on the iPhone. Tracks or 'scenes' can respond to sounds in the listener's environment via microphone, sampling and incorporating them into the music in real time as well as motion data from the inbuilt accelerometers. Scenes can be created using open source audiovisual programming environment PD. Makes me really want an iPhone!

  • dpwolf.muxtape.com – I've been playing with muxtape today. The site allows you to upload and share a mix of mp3s. It's a bit flaky but it's a great idea with a very simple design. This is part of a mix I put together for a dj set a few weeks ago. It starts with The Velvet Underground and ends with Kanye West. Enjoy!
