Wavelength

Inspiration

• When I find a song I like, I listen to it until I hate it
• Tired of scrolling through social media to find similar songs

What it does

• Wavelength helps recommend songs based off of your current favorites
• Put in a song title and artist and it will find 10 similar songs
• Connects to Spotify, LastFM, and Google AI APIs
• Ensures recommendations are diverse, covering multiple artists

How I built it

• Created a script in JS to call upon APIs
• Each API provides end user value
• Spotify: Used to search and enrich song data -LastFM: Used to find similar songs (Valence was removed from Spotify API in 2024)
• Google AI: Used Gemini to explain the similarities to songs
• Render to host project

Challenges we ran into

• Minimal coding experience
• Spotify API restrictions
• Design challenges
• Project deployment
• Timeframe

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Good UI
• Responsive MCP
• Multiple API connections
• First program at a hackathon!!!

What we learned

• Programming is hard
• Researching an API is important
• Debugging takes longer than you think
• AI needs to be supervised!

What's next for Wavelength

• Connect with other music sharing platforms (Apple Music)
• Make search more robust (Search by mood/artist/genre)
• Enhance UI (Didn't have time to implement some design elements)
• Custom URL, render one is trash (Didn't want to pay for one)
