[edit] About the hack

I want to scrobble all the music that I hear. I tell Last.fm that I'm attending events. Events have setlists on Setlist.fm. Why not scrobble them?

Setlist Scrobbler works by periodically checking if the user's Last.fm events have setlists on Setlist.fm. It will try to scrobble those tracks at approximately the time you would have heard them.

Originally written at Music Hack Day London 2010. Updated at Music Hack Day London 2011 to source setlists from Setlist.fm instead of Songkick. Reason: http://www.songkick.com/blog/2011/11/18/some-changes-to-songkick/

[edit] What APIs, tools or kit did you use?

[edit] Images/Screenshots

I have no screenshots. There's not really much to show.

[edit] Anything left to do

  • Try to scrobble the user's past events as soon as they sign up, instead of the next scheduled check.
  • There is a limitation that it can only scrobble two weeks into the past (this is a Last.fm API limitation).
