Album recs from TrackTunes are purely deterministic with a bit of random selection.
No AI or fancy algorithms. I just pull from your recent and popular artists and suggest albums you haven't tracked yet.
My favorite part is grouping them by duration, to match your workout plan.
My morning run this morning fueled by the new Olivia Rodrigo album. Great variety and performances by her.
The slower songs were what really got me this time though.
I originally wrote a script to sync my Spotify tracks to my Strava because I kept forgetting what I was listening to on long rides. Put it online, and now I mostly just use it to silently judge my friends' that exclusively listen to yacht rock. ๐
Hauling the kids in the cargo bike is basically my zone 2 base training now.
Having my playlists auto-sync to Strava is great until the whole feed sees that my heavy push up the hill was fueled entirely by the Sing soundtrack.
@neerajjj6785 this joke is actually dated.
if somebody can vibe code the exact tool they need for their own very unique and specific problem, and run it locally, then that's it, no website required.
@TTrimoreau that's a pyramid,
tho I believe having a great product is table stakes
even a truly great product won't succeed without good marketing and distro
I think about the impact reading 'Born to Run' has had on my life almost every single day. Can't recommend that book more; whether you're on the fence about running or already a committed regular.
Doing tempo laps around Wash Park trying to try and crack that sub-20 5k again into my 40s. Realized my pace only actually spikes when the Olivia Rodrigo tracks drop. Having my Spotify auto-sync to my activity logs is basically just a public diary of my music phases at this point
Ever look back at an old PR and wish you knew exactly what song you were listening to when you kicked your pace up?
TrackTunes syncs your exact workout soundtrack directly to your Strava activity logs. Keep the data, keep the music.
Nothing kills the post-run high faster than manually screenshotting your Spotify playlist into your Strava activity.
TrackTunes runs in the background and does it for you automatically the second you hit save. Zero effort.
total artist streaming numbers from May are some of the biggest yet. No surprise though at the top 3 artists this past month
Drake - 524 plays
Noah Kahan - 965 plays
Taylor Swift - 1,157 plays
Noah Kahan nearly clearing a 1000 streams from runners and cyclists is a wild stat
