an archive/blog dedicated to obscure music!


Updates

Hello, everyone! It's been a little while. I just kinda been doing other stuff lately and this project fell to the wayside. Well, I will be returning shortly due to a new wave of motivation:
Basically, I started this site mainly as a way to teach myself HTML/JavaScript. And now, taking an actual course in web design, I know the truth.
this code is atrocious yo
So I've decided I want to pretty much rebuild this site, or at least most pages, from the ground up. The look most likely won't change, but accessibility is GOOD and so are web design standards idfk.
also it's an excuse to practice good web dev habits.
so yea hii ummmmmm yeaaaaa :D

also i think i wanna make an RSS feed, i just gotta learn what an RSS feed is first

so, for some reason, the Driftworks compilation (which was previously made unavailable due to copyright shenanigans) is now publically viewable afaik?
idk when or why this happened, but it is now officially immortalized on THE MASTERLIST.
Good job, Driftworks! Keep it up!

Remember Sourde by Jacquemort? Well, I was able to interview Mathieu Lachance, the guy behind it!
You can read it on my blog page, here! :)

i've removed recovered files by /f from the channel on request of the artist.
normally this would be fine, just link to their bandcamp or website or something, but it seems she's taken all of that down, which is a shame.
however, on looking into it more, she has her reasons and her art belongs to her. it is not my place to question what she does with it, i just hope she keeps creating what makes her happy.
here's a link to her patreon :)

Included artists of compilation releases in the "sort by artist" tab. It may have made the page a bit cluttered, so if you find it annoying, lemme know ig? Also just if you have any suggestions for features on the website, I'm always looking for more things to add. Thanks for stopping by! :D

HEY ALL if you look on the sidebar to the left of this box you will see a new option... that's right there is a sorting option now oh yeahhhh
so far you can sort by artist, country, genre, and release type, but i may add more
i am sure that my javascript is fuuuucked but likeee, it's fine probably i'll just clean it up,,, later
enjoy >:3

If you scroll below this very update box, you will find a box of every release. It may not seem like much, but it is completely automated using into from the JSON file.
this took me forever but holy shit i am so proud of myself idc that the code is disturbingly messy
Also, it may look the same, but the music page is entirely automated now! Just look at the source code that shit is CLEAN (ignore the style section)
well learning javascript has been fun but now... now i SLEEP

Hi, sorry it's been a while!
I've created a JSON to act as a standardized database for every segment[Obscured] release, and it can be viewed here. This will be used to update the music page to add a sorting feature, and also to have an automated release list.
It's been fun learning JavaScript for this, I hope to get more things on this site automated and less messy :v
And add more features, of course. It's hardly an archive without extensive features :p

Cleaned up the code a littttle bit, and I also finally finished the genre page! However, I do not yet have pages for the genres themselves, so... stay tuned.
I also added pages for a couple of other albums, but I didn't want to add a new update for each one. Plus, this adds the element of adventure! Go, visitor, go out and look for the pages that actually exist! >:D
September 4, 2022

I wrote a page for the very first album I actually couldn't find any info on, the eclectic and experimental Sourde by Jacquemort. Really recommend checking this one out.
I also wrote a page for the second album archived on segment[Obscured], 11th release from the mysterious black metal label Rhinocervs.
September 1, 2022

I finished the page for There Is No God and He Is Your Creator, the first release uploaded to the YouTube channel as well as the reason this project was started!
It includes a track-by-track overview written by yours truly, here it is if you wanna check it out!! :)
August 28, 2022

finally finished adding every track to the random page.
im going to bed sleepy
August 27, 2022 (cont.)

Ok so I'm about halfway done with adding all the songs to the random page and I'm realizing how tedious and time consuming this is so PEOPLE BETTER USE IT HERE IT IS AAAAAAA ABSORB THE RANDOM SELECTION INTO YOUR EARS
August 27, 2022

Finally added all of the photos in the music tab! Now all I need to do is add an individual page for each one
I also added a random tab that plays a random song, so now all I need to do is copy paste the video IDs of each individual song and the start/end times of each song for the full albums.
hmm
im sure theres a more effecient way to do this but i forgot everything about javascript so oh well
August 25, 2022

Added the first few albums, so it begins. I haven't listened to them in a little while, might be nostalgic.
August 24, 2022

Just finished up the home page, adding all the music will be quite the endeavor :v
