Browse & play embedded tracks from Angry Metal Guy music reviews
Project description
Angry Metal Guy Player (AMG Player) is a Python multi platform console tool to automatically play or download tracks from Angry Metal Guy reviews.
I created this because:
I like Angry Metal Guy, and discovered great music (both metal and totally non-metal) thanks to their reviews
I often disagree with their ratings (in fact I disagree more often than I agree), both for overrating and underrating
Even when I disagree, I like reading their reviews
I want to listen to the music before I read the review, to avoid getting influenced
To be efficient, I want to listen to the tracks like a radio, and read the review to learn more only when I like something
Features
Can work either in interactive mode (manually select tracks) or totally automatic (play new tracks like a radio)
Supports embedded tracks from: YouTube, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, ReverbNation
Play YouTube video if available, or generate a video on the fly with the cover image + audio track(s) (requires FFmpeg)
Can download tracks (with embedded album art) to play later
