Figured out a workaround for #Plex recently nuking the #Alexa skill which seriously impacted my playing of music from my digital library.

Had an older iPad being underutilized. It can broadcast #bluetooth to the #Echo. So, had a version of PlexAmp on it and *poof*, now it's a dedicated music player. iPad running PlexAmp bluetooth -> Echo line out -> Edifiers. Since Echo is managing the audio, any regular notifications come through.

Of course, it's more manual, and doesn't leverage the routine/skill combination that I used to use: alexa routine that asks plex to play the 'whatever' playlist'.

I guess if I want to go the next step, I could set up a pi with voice recognition, playlist management etc, but that sounds like a bigger 'winter' project. This'll do Grommit, this'll do.

New #review today: "I first encountered #Elifantree on Blood Moon, their 2021 collaboration with Tölöläb. Florescence features the experimental trio on their own, and it’s an album full of interesting sounds and textures." #ExposeOnline #EclipseRecords #KateBush #AvantPop http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/elifantree-florescence-2.html

Stoking the star-maker machinery behind the popular song : 1980 : Kate Bush, EMI Records & Metro Radio

“I’m SO sorry,” I grovelled to the petite musician on whose foot I had just accidentally trodden. We were stood side-by-side in the record library – my ‘office’ – of local commercial station ‘Metro Radio’ in Newcastle. Kate Bush was kindly... [continues]
