Audio Files for Music Player

This folder contains the audio files used by the music player on the website.

How to Add Your Music Files

Method 1: Using File Explorer (Easiest)

1. Open File Explorer and navigate to: d:\Imperfect Hosts\github\imperfect-hosts\assets\audio\
2. Copy your MP3 files into this folder
3. Make sure the filenames match what’s in the playlist (or update the playlist)

Method 2: Using Command Line

# Copy a file from another location
copy "C:\path\to\your\song.mp3" "d:\Imperfect Hosts\github\imperfect-hosts\assets\audio\song.mp3"

Current Playlist Configuration

The playlist is configured in _layouts/default.html (around line 468-493).

Currently expecting these files:

• spare-change.mp3
• loading-dock-lullaby.mp3
• rents-due.mp3
• breakroom-daydreams.mp3

Updating the Playlist

To change the tracks in the playlist:

1. Open _layouts/default.html
2. Find the tracks array (around line 468)
3. Update the track information:

const tracks = [
    {
        title: "Your Song Title",
        artist: "Imperfect Hosts",
        duration: "3:45",  // Format: MM:SS
        src: "/assets/audio/your-filename.mp3"
    },
    // Add more tracks...
];

Supported Audio Formats

• MP3 (recommended for best compatibility)
• WAV (larger file size)
• OGG (good compression, good browser support)

Tips

• Keep filenames simple (no spaces, use hyphens: my-song.mp3)
• Recommended bitrate: 128-320 kbps for MP3
• Make sure files aren’t too large (consider compression for web delivery)
• Test the player after adding files to ensure they load correctly

Using External URLs

You can also use external URLs instead of local files:

src: "https://example.com/your-song.mp3"

This is useful if you host your music on:

• SoundCloud
• Bandcamp
• Your own CDN
• Any public audio hosting service
