No More Silence

It took about 5 days of calculation to redo the feature extraction on all of the music on needle, excluding silence.

The only metric I have for generated playlists is my happiness with them. After a days playing around, I think there is a subtle improvement, now that
the silence is being ignored:

  1. Only -- Nine Inch Nails
  2. Maria, Maria -- Santana
  3. Buddy X -- Neneh Cherry
  4. Who Knew -- Eminem
  5. Maria Maria (feat. The Product G&B & Wyclef Jean) -- Santana
  6. 10,000 Years (Peace Is Now) -- Live
  7. My Sharona -- The Knack
  8. The Chastising of Renegade -- Primus
  9. Open All Night -- The Urge
  10. Monsoon -- Robbie Williams
  11. Girl U Want -- Devo
  12. Educated Fool -- Hoobastank
  13. Azwethinkweiz -- Incubus
  14. In the Midnight Hour -- The Commitments
  15. Hope -- Screaming Headless Torsos
  16. The Man In the River -- Bootsauce

Next step is to take "ratings" into account. That's going to require a bit more work, though.
