Festival Lineup Finder

A simple script to interact and compare your last.fm artist recommendations to a festival line up. Idea being that you'll find a hidden gem you may have missed otherwise!

By defualt the last.fm API returns simmilar artists in order of which they match your top artists. Try playing around with the similar-limit parameter to return a wider or more concise range of artists to watch.

Requirements

• Last.fm API key, https://www.last.fm/api/account/create to create one
• Clashfinder JSON export of the line up
  • From the festival page select Data -> Export -> Full Calendar -> JSON -> OK
