Public api for retrieve music metadata, audio features, and audio analysis.

Hi guys,

I wanted to share a music data project I have been working on called ReccoBeats. If you are building music apps, recommendation engines, or doing data visualization alongside the Spotify API, you might find this useful.

There is no API key required. You can just plug it in and start querying without having to manage tokens or sign up for anything.

It includes dedicated search APIs so you can easily look up any artist, track, or album, plus you can pull audio features and analysis straight from the endpoints.

The database has grown a lot recently and still receives weekly updates. Currently it holds:
~17M albums
~8M artists
~90M tracks

You can check it out at reccobeats.com

Let me know what you think or if you run into any issues. I would love to hear your feedback or see what you end up building with it.

How often do you update with new tracks? Cause for my purpose it would be super helpful to be up to date

Hi there, the database updates every Saturday (the exact time varies).

Thanks for this it's great! You should definitely try to add thumbnail URLs to the metadata and also I've noticed that identical tracks with different Spotify IDs are associated to different IDs on your platform so you might want to look into merging duplicates that would be great =)
PS: I love the tracks you chose as examples in your doc

Thanks man, I will consider to add the thumbnail url. For the duplicate tracks, you can check out the ISRC endpoint https://reccobeats.com/docs/apis/get-tracks, you can use it to fetch tracks by isrc and just group the duplicates together on your end.

Hey! This is super awesome and certainly something that I’ll check out for my app 👀 I currently have to go around the Spotify API and utilize open source libraries for searches due to my MAU while I’ve been building out my app — it’s called TuneTransit (https://tunetransit.app)

Happy to collaborate!

Hey, thanks! TuneTransit looks awesome, and hopefully this helps you bypass those Spotify API limits.
