Releasing an Album on Floppy Disk

Terence Eden’s blog post details the technical process of fitting music on a 1.44MB floppy disk. They share the official tracklist of their second album and demonstrate concatenating audio files using ffmpeg. The output file initially exceeds the disk capacity, so the Opus encoder is recommended for extreme compression. The command for compressing the file is adjusted, resulting in a significantly smaller file size. The author’s excitement is palpable as they anticipate listening to their music through this algorithm. The post is informative, entertaining, and showcases the author’s techie nerdiness. An engaging read for music and tech enthusiasts.
