The Echo Nest Partners with SeatGeek
blog.echonest.com
on 05/06/2013
Excerpt: SeatGeek, a ticket search engine, and The Echo Nest have partnered to incorporate SeatGeek artist IDs into The Echo Nest’s Rosetta ID mapping layer making it possible to use SeatGeek IDs directly with the Echo Nest API. This makes it easier for you to use the SeatGeek and the Echo Nest APIs together. For instance, you can call the SeatGeek API, get performer IDs in response, and use those IDs with the Echo Nest API to present more context about the artist. Here, we make a call to the SeatGeek API to get the set of top artists that are performing nearby:
Each returned event includes a list of performances, like so:
We see the entry for the Rolling Stones. The SeatGeek ID for The Rolling Stones is 2597.... read the full post.

API Crafting Secrets: into Jamendo API
www.3scale.net
on 04/23/2013
Excerpt: When we decided to redesign Jamendo, we quickly thought that the API should be a priority in our planning: first, because it is THE main way for Jamendo to live outside www. jamendo. com (on social networks, mobiles, etc. ), and second, because the migration of existing applications (based on our previous API) will take some time. To develop the new API, we have used the Zend framework (as for the website) but we made a sub-framework specifically for the API to make it easier to change. The current online version is the beta version. Developers who have started to program the next version of the Android and iOS Jamendo applications have worked on the alpha release. It was very good training to fix major bugs and unappropriated methods.... read the full post.

Twitter #Music Is Great For Artists; Less So For Fans [Hands On Review]
readwrite.com
on 04/18/2013
Excerpt: Twitter's new music app is here. Artists should love it, but fans aren't going to find as much to like. Twitter put months of speculation to rest this morning when it launched its own music-focused service for iOS and the Web. Twitter #Music is a standalone app for discovering, following and listening to artists that draws its intelligence from Twitter's own user activity data. At first glance, it's a win for artists, but the value it adds for fans remains to be seen.
First and foremost, Twitter #Music is undoubtedly good for Twitter. The app takes something that is hugely popular among consumers — music — and intimately ties it to its own service.... read the full post.
