Hello
Wonderful site for fans of Carnatic music, thank you. But please note that the js path for the carnatic player gives a 404, so the player is not working.

This is a really amazing effort and an outstanding achievement in my opinion.

Here are my thoughts on future enhancements which if solved can open up opportunities for carnatic music generation by deep learning/machine learning models

This is definitely an arduous task, but if we somehow can reach a stage where we:

1. Have search apis for searching across composers/songs/ragas/talas in a programmatic manner
2. Have every second of every video present, notated in a uniform manner that not only captures all gamakas effectively but also can be rendered in a truly carnatic fashion by some piece of software
3. Integrate with youtube apis and other apis for data cleanup such that all songs are normalized in the same shruti, redundant seconds are removed, background noise is cleaned up etc

Then this would truly function as the first carnatic music dataset which can be used for performing research a wide array of exciting problems such as:

1. Raga alapana generation
2. Raga identifier
3. Raga notater
4. Tala identifier

So on and so forth.

Similar kinds of problems have already been solved in the generation of western classical music which is a slightly easier problem to solve because of the lack of gamakas and the presense of midi notation.

Its best if we can get a conversation started around this so that we can solve this problem as a community

Hope we reach such a stage one day so that we can truly unlock the potential of indian classical music :)

Thank you so much for making this resource! It's really everything I've ever wanted. I'm impressed with every detail, all the way down to the matching of variant spellings of raga names! Thanks :)

Thank you for the great work in organizing and collecting Carnatic music. Suggestion: add a license to let users know how the content can be used.

Hello,

Got WhatsApp forward of this URL 2 days back. Fantastic collection. Thank you very much.

One suggestion/request:

After clicking on any one of the options -> Raga / Artist / Composer / Type / Song, on the left side related items show up in Alphabetical order.

Say I search on Raga, all ragas get listed starting from Abheri onwards.

If I select Abheri, then all the songs get listed on the right side under Videos: (how about calling it Audios, instead of Videos: ?).

Is it possible to provide a Right click option and Tick the items of choice in one shot, so that all these "ticked and selected" Audios get Saved in the Play List in one shot?

Thanks
Seshadri
