Ampache Music Server

Web Content - Random Pages

Since everyone is always asking me to burn music I created a streaming music server for all my content. I am only creating accounts for people I know. So if you *really* know me, you know how to get in touch with me.

*This is a new database. The old one is gone. I have finished updating all mp3 tags for better searching feature. I have deleted all accounts. Please re-shoot me and email if you would like an account. Thanks*

New Features added:

1. If you have a Last.FM account you can now integrate that with your profile. Check it out under the plug-ins section

2. Added a 'shout' box for every song/album/artist. Enabling this will allow any user to 'tag' an item and post a comment about it which will then be put on the main pages shoutbox

3. All mp3 tags have been updated and 80% of all mp3s have the lyrics within the ID3-tag

4. Faster downloads of zip files. Please remember to keep it below 20 songs in a zip download.

Tips if you have an account:

1. Add http://kendrickcoleman.no-ip.org to your list of sites to ALLOW pop-ups on your browser. Or you can just disable your pop-ups.

2. The main navigation is on the upper left hand side where you see Home or the Book that allows you to browse by artist, genre, song, etc.

3. At the top right you can search for a particular artist or song.

4. The green + button adds the particular song to a playlist which queues on the right hand side. If you click on the tower, it will stream the playlist.

5. Another feature I like when i want to stream music is the Random Advanced playlist.
If you look at the home navigation there is a button under Random that says Advanced. I will choose 30 songs and select a genre from The Catalog (Comedy, Rock, Techno, Etc.). I don't use the genre chooser on the right hand side.

6. If you have any requests for an artist or CD let me know and I will do my best to make it available.

7. Music files are hosted on my home computer which I shut down every night. Songs may not be available late night or during twilight hours.
