One scoops all the files together, finds them all, finds duplicates, gets rid of duplicates, figures out where they've been processed correctly, and sends them to the right queue for processing.

A second app, which I designed and built, addressed the specific need that I had, which was I felt that the metadata around the tracks was not rich enough to help me navigate when I'm putting a set together.

So I built an app.

It's called Psychic Octopus.

You could see my state of mind at the time.

which goes through all of those files and adds additional metadata markers around the degree of percussion there is, where the drops are, how much vocal there is, beyond what the mainstream music systems are providing.

And the third app was a playlist generator.

So I could

load up my tracks I could say this is where I want to start with this track this is where I want to end in this genre over this length of time and I want the mood to feel like this during the set and it would go out and discover some paths that would work and present them back to me it all works and it all took me about an hour maybe an hour and a half to be honest the taste of that

playlist maker is pretty terrible.

It is pretty terrible.

It doesn't have great taste, but the point is it's done and it works.

And this is one of, I'd say around 30 or 40 apps that I have built over the last couple of weeks that I'm using, some of which we make available to members in

coming months, which speaks specifically to needs that I have.

And this is really, really radical.

And I'm far and away not the only one experiencing this.

I mean, I've been reading a lot of testimony over the last two or three weeks.

There was one particular engineer, he said that his two-person team now supports thousands of users.

And he described what he now does as moving from playing every instrument to conducting an orchestra.

So this is what a year ago, Andrej Kapathy called vibe coding.
