Immediately from when this video started, I saw potential for something cool - a 3D-printed vinyl record that holds the NFC sticker underneath the labels, and a tiny motor to actually run the record, while the album art is placed at the side. At 33 rpm of course.
I just built this using a Raspberry Pi 3B+ and so far it is working great. I need to add more songs to my IF statments and may work on figuring an easier way to add new songs. Gives me something to play with. Great video and blog with super easy to follow directions. Everything I needed to do was there. Probably the first project like this I have done without running into issues. Thanks!!!!
@@cinderellasunderstudy2937 Sorry for the late reply. I just noticed this. I did not have to do anything different. I followed her directions and everything worked fine. I did get it working to read from a file so I don't have to build a long IF statement. I need to do a little more testing, but so far it works if you do things correctly. "the code works as long as you don't press this button". Haha
@@bretthampton2050 I know this is really outdated but what I did was made a function to actually write the album string to some ntag215's and then extract that when they are scanned. If there isn't already an album saved to the tag then I simply add the last album I played on my spotify.
@@M.rasmodiusI haven't tried it myself but I see no reason why it shouldn't. Maybe the performance might be a bit lower, but other than that it should have no issues. You could try using the Lite versions of Raspberry Pi OS to further reduce the load.
So glad to see someone actually turn this into a real product. I've thought about the cards off and on for years, but doing it on a phone lacked some elegance. Seeing the hardware of a nice, inconspicuous wooden product really takes it to a next level. That said, what about this: - Cheap android phone (with headphone jack) Put it in a nice wooden enclosure flush with the screen, screen exposed. That way you've got both Aux and Bluetooth options, and relative ease of setup for both playing music directly through spotify, and even creation of new cards through apps like NFC Tools
You've done a great job with this! I've seen other projects that use RFID, but your presentation is incredible. The wooden box idea is fantastic. Thank you for sharing :)
this is a very solid idea for the future of physical releases. Could be a great balance between supporting the artist and keeping the convenience of modern audio tech
Ooh I want to make this for a friend but want it to be user friendly. Im going to attempt to create a web ui that let’s a user scan an rfid tag into a field, then paste in a Spotify url in order to quickly update a database storing all of the rfid tag IDs and Spotify tracks/albums. I might add basic playback controls to the box as well. Super cool idea with a great execution, I can’t wait to start a new project!
I have an old Pi 3B sitting around and a 1 1/2 yo daughter who loves music. I'll make her own jukebox so she can play her favourites whenever she wants!
My music collector self would love if this was sold by artists/labels as official physical versions of albuns being sort of a digital download/mp3 system only needing a player table and speakers ... it'd be cheaper and cooler than CDs/vinyl and could come with more creative designs and also be more "useful" 😍💭 such a creative idea 👏
Is there a way to store the Spotify track/album id on the RFID chip itself? For example, instead of having an “if else” statement for every track or album, (if id == this, then play this song) you could just have one statement that reads the Spotify id from the chip and inserts it into the context_uri variable directly?
You can write a text record to your RFID chip and read out this text instead (I do not know exactly how to do it with this api, but it is possible). In this case, the text could be the track id and the python program just inserts it: "spotify:track:"
That's what I did as well. Also, I programmed an rfid tag to write the current Spotify context to the next card presented, so the kids can "program" more cards without tinkering with the code.
@@benjamin1008 Hey, would you be willing to share your code? I'm very inspired by the idea and would like to build something like that for my kids as well :)
Sweet idea, however, an easy improvement would be to store a file that the python code reads in that houses all the RFID tags and corresponding URLS. Then you can look through that file instead of adding a ton of if-else statements! would make the code more readable, and make it easier to edit your album collection since you could also have a "Album name" section in the csv file or whatever you use to hold the album info!
Theoretically, could you add more parameters to make it more user-friendly? If this were given as a gift as the project sits now, the person would have to know how to add more code to add more songs. I propose the following solution: *1.* Make the list of songs and ID's a JSON file that can be automatically updated with RFID IDs and song numbers that the program can refer to in the code; that way, manually adding more songs or editing the music that's attached to each RFID is easier. *2.* Use an RFID Reader/Writer and a button that can be pushed to scan and read a new RFID and either change the ID of the RFID so that the IDs are sequential to the previously checked IDs and easier to read or have the program update the JSON file with the new ID. *3.* Have the program listen for a new song to be played manually after the RFID is scanned, take the ID of that song and attach it to the previously checked RFID. Thus creating a new _"Record."_ I have no idea if this can be done, at least in this way. I would love to make these as gifts, but I want to ensure it's user-friendly and new _"records"_ can be made on the user's side regardless of their coding ability. Let me know what you think 😁
@@magfal well I wrote up a better way to handle all of this and youtube decided to delete it thanks. So here is a quicker version: Have a JSON file of bound IDs, check if the RFID is in that JSON if not, start a pairing process where the next 30s-1m you can query spotify at an interval to check the currently played song, if it finds a song bind it to that ID, else cancel the pairing process. Unless there is a way to write some small bits of information onto the RFID card itself, then you could have the track id embedded on it.
This can be further expanded by adding RFID tags to physical releases of movies, TV shows and games to pull up their soundtracks. Just imagine getting your favourite game and tapping it on the box to listen to the soundtrack.
@@talaexe Hey Tala, I am going to make this for my grandparents. Just wondering, is there any way to make raspotify always on because the whole point is that they aren't very good at technology so I want them to be able to use this without a phone.
@@harrydawso just make the application Run at boot and add another physical button to reboot the pi/ the program and that way is somehow the application stops, your grandparents just have to press that physical button
So i build this, a bit different but on base of your idea. But im asking myself can you like add buttons to the player for play, pause, skip, shuffle and that stuff?
ive been wanting to do something like this except the RFID is in my actual record sleeve and i would scan it when i put one on, which would display info about the currently playing album
Could there be a way to make this an offline device; I believe just loading a usb with songs and modifying the program to fetch then audio file when the rfid card is scanned but I’m unsure. Also could that still account for playlist?
I just saw the Yoto! video from Techmoan and the first thing i thought was cool idea but i bet a DYI version would be 100 times better and now I get this video recomended. The only difference would be to make it stop if the tag is removed, whitch would be like, you know, "playing" the record. Great Video!
Is there a way to have the RF ID play songs that you would store on the micro sd in the raspberry pi? I would love to make that I didn’t have to have a Spotify or have any online connection. Some thing that could just pull locally from my little raspberry.
Brilliant! Very inspiring project and thank you for sharing with the world! Can you give us a little info on the idea behind this and how the concept was made? I looked on the blog but there isn’t any history about how this idea came about.
This is sick!! Saw it on TikTok and had to check out the video. Do you know if it would work using an Arduino Uno instead of a Raspberry Pi? Or would the fact the Arduino is only a microcontroller make things too complicated?
Really great tutorial, I am considering trying it out myself. However, please please please for anyone doing this don't ever show your API ID's, secret codes or any other details as plain text in console code or anywhere else. It's a bit more work but always be safe out there. Make use of some encryption or obviscation to hide these kinds of data. Most API providers have more info on their recommended security measures on their website.
Hii! I love the video, your idea was super cool and detailed!! Just one question: Do you need a Spotify Premium account, or can a regular Spotify account work just as well?
This is a great video and neat invention!! Can I know how u learned how to do these kind of stuff? (Did you learn the electronics in school? - seeing that you know how to connect the different pins on the RFID reader to the corresponding pins on the RPi)
Hello and thank you for this great tutorial. Is it possible to use this project without a screen? How can I boot up the RPI and use directly the RFID Reader?

Holy shit this is what I wanted to make for my grandma. The only issue is trying to figure out what service to use. I wanted to make something really easy to understand for anyone but also let you use any video on TH-cam or file on local storage to make it easy.

Yes, it would definitely work except for one change the pi zero w cannot output analogue audio so you can't connect a speaker directly. You need to use a usb audio card that connects to the pi zero w using otg and you plug in the male audio jack into the female jack of the audio card
It would be cool to make a little record shop diorama with action figures as employees and shoppers. You can then actually physically crate dig and put it on the record player in the record shop.
Great video, talaexe! Two questions: 1. I am getting 2 minute boot up time on rasberry pi, everytime I start it. How to solve this? 2. Can we use ESP32 instead?
Hey! Love the video, can you make a quick tutorial on how to set up the raspberry pi to the computer so we can start using the os? I’m just missing how to do that part
Hey! You can actually just plug it into a monitor, it’s pretty much a mini computer! There’s 2 mini HDMI ports on the pi that you can use to plug into a monitor using a mini HDMI to regular HDMI cable
Not sure if you are still keeping track off this project, i've just spent 3 days trying to build this project using a raspberry pi 4 with Bullseye OS. Cannot get it to work i cannot get the rfid stickers to scan. please help. Nigel
I am having issues with the scope. When I run the program instead of the authorization pop up, the website just shows "illegal scope" despite following the tutorial. Any ideas on how to solve this?
I've installed raspotify using rpi 2b and it is not visible from my laptop or phone. I'm guessing it doesn't work with old rpi models? and since my rpi 2b is connected via lan cable, maybe raspotify only works over wifi?
Liked the video after 10 seconds! I neeeeed this!!!
ปีที่แล้ว
Is this inspired by a board game called DropMix? It was made by Harmonix, authors of the Rock Band video game series. You would have a board with 5 card readers and cards with various songs. You would connect the board to your phone and it would automatically make mash ups based on the cards present. One cool thing is it you could stack cards, it would always read the last present card.
I loved the idea. I’m not into the raspberry thing, but ill try this sometime. Also: the code could be a bit better. And you should implement something to add/create new Albums. Like doing an put method to feed an vector (I don’t know if this exists in English, i mean the x[1,2,3] thing)
Any microcontroller should work I think. All you need is a RFID reader that is supported. The spotipy module is not necessary, you could also do the post and get requests by hand. But I do not know if every microcontroller supports having Spotify installed. So CONTROLLING Spotify is definitely possible, having speakers connected and run Spotify on this controller... I cannot guarantee.
Immediately from when this video started, I saw potential for something cool - a 3D-printed vinyl record that holds the NFC sticker underneath the labels, and a tiny motor to actually run the record, while the album art is placed at the side. At 33 rpm of course.

You would connect the board to your phone and it would automatically make mash ups based on the cards present.
One cool thing is it you could stack cards, it would always read the last present card.
I loved the idea. I’m not into the raspberry thing, but ill try this sometime.
Also: the code could be a bit better. And you should implement something to add/create new Albums. Like doing an put method to feed an vector (I don’t know if this exists in English, i mean the x[1,2,3] thing)
Loving this project so much
ah i wish i found this for my final year project inspiration
Is there a specific reason you used a raspberry Pi, or would any microcontroller work, with a Bluetooth module?
Any microcontroller should work I think. All you need is a RFID reader that is supported. The spotipy module is not necessary, you could also do the post and get requests by hand. But I do not know if every microcontroller supports having Spotify installed. So CONTROLLING Spotify is definitely possible, having speakers connected and run Spotify on this controller... I cannot guarantee.
On my device, (which is a raspberry pi model B), it is unable to locate the package python3-mfrc522. Does anyone know how I can resolve this?
incredible tutorial, was an enjoyment to follow
Imagine 5 years later you want to listen your favourite song and Spotify lost licence for it. Must be fun.
Can you have play back on a Sonos and not on the pi. But have the pi do everything else ?
my spotify just disconnects from the device the moment sound is supposed to come out : (
Hey I'm having the same issue right now. Did you ever find a solution to get it to work?
nope.
did you guys find any solution for that I'm stuck in the same error
@@EditsByInduru no but im going to try it again soon and Ill update yall if I fix it.
can i use youtube music instead of Spotify?
how would the codes/program be if i were to use a USB RFID reader?
This is amazing 😍 cant wait to try this myself
