Radio Mula

The client want to start creating a community of records labels of Música Latinoamericana (hence the MuLa name which also means mule in spanish).

The simple way to do this was to start with a web site in WordPress (https://mulaweb.org), create an online radio in ShoutCast (https://shoutcast.com), setup a mail service, setup a simple CRM that can be integrated with the website (https://Bitrix24.com).

We have to write a radio client, and a server for the metadata, both in JavaScript (one on the browser, one on NodeJS). The server pulls the metadata of the song that is playing on the radio from the Apple Music API. With this little trick we can show the disc artwork and some extra information of the track.
