The Echo Nest - 30 minutes The Echo Nest is a research-oriented music intelligence company that provides music content and metadata for music application developers via an array of web services. In this workshop we'll provide a brief overview of our web services - plus we will be announcing several new APIs that are being made available toVisit the public for[Workshop Page on the first time for this Music Hackday weekend. More info.

Songbird - 30 minutes -Check out the latest and greatest with the Songbird player. Songbird add-ons 101: creating Feathers, adding features, and reviewing available APIs. More Info.

Last.fm - 30 Minutes -Straight from London HQ! Matt and Jonty will take you on a tour through the Last.fm API and what it can offer your hack, plus some sneak peeks into what the future holds. More info

RadioWeave - 10 minutes - RadioWeave is a social radio composed of user-generated audio channels that are then blended together by the listener to create a constant personalized radio mix. The workshop will present the APIs for selecting channels and streaming audio, recording and uploading audio, and providing social interaction through audio feedback, with the hope that new ideas for interactive radio mashups will emerge. More Info.

Fairtilizer- 15 minutes - This workshop will present the three levels (simple, advanced and premium) of Fairtilizer API and provide some examples for developers how to manage tracks, playlists, users and events inside their client apps.

Hacking on reality with RjDj - module workshops and discussion - 45 minutes - We will be getting everyone up and running with the RJC-1000 scene creation software by showing how to import stems and loops and start adding reality effects.' Is that enough? Also definitely worth mentioning on the website would be the fact that maximum loop length for people's own stems is 32 bars, and that they have to be exported at 22.05kHz sample rate. This is the format that's accepted by the RJC-1000. More info

SoundCloud - 20 Minutes -Eric and Robb will give you a run-down of the SoundCloud API, show you some cool stuff that have been built on it already and lastly give you some ideasHack Day Wiki|http://musichackdaysf2010.pbworks.com/Workshops] for future SoundCloud-based hacks... More info
