Just a quickie today, I may be working to turn the ionosphere into the world's biggest musical instrument, but a fellow named Tristan has done a music hack that makes any song swing.

The Swinger is a bit of python code that takes any song and makes it swing.  It does this be taking each beat and time-stretching the first half of each beat while time-shrinking the second half.  It has quite a magical effect.

Great samples on the page-- Sweet Child o' Mine as swing?  I have got to get to Music Hack Day sometime.

Remember, as Prof. Schickle says, "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that certain je ne sais quoi".
