I saw that they moved but was under the impression that more (old) features would be coming soon. I can't imagine why they would remove song search though unless it was just a pain in the ass? Of course, that goes with the territory when you're trying to have a database site.

yeah i would hope the song search is coming back.  Makes sense that it would since all of the listings still have the soundtrack info.  I would think maintaining/updating the soundtrack info is way more cumbersome than maintaining the search function.

They're moving servers....

C'mon man.  Read.

I’m just saying that searching thru a database for something as simple as a fucking song is not difficult. I’m sure they will have the feature back soon. Don’t get bummed y’all.

I've found so many of the songs and bands I love using this site. Hopefully it comes back unchanged/better

i've contributed to the site for a little over a decade now.
the admin is just moving the site to a more secure domain and making the necessary changes for the new interface.

i've talked with him and were looking to retain as many of the original features as possible.

a little over dramatic on the subject OP?!

I haven't used it in quite some time because nowadays most skate video soundtracks usually have a playlist already created on spotify or youtube, but I imagine it still comes in handy for those lesser known videos. Regardless of what platform, i'm thankful for all those folks who contributed to making songs from skate videos easier to find.

Skatevideosite has done such an amazing job compiling that database. Even the obscure homie videos have full track lists!

Markus, the admin oversees that account so I can't speak for his maintenance of it. I welcome any feedback though and can easily pass it along..



Also, as a general statement to anyone in this thread..
If anyone has any feedback or things they would like to see implemented in the latest redesign of the website, I welcome your feedback.
I can easily pass it along to our web designer and am always looking to see how things can be worked upon, even if it is just a web database for skate video info.

Can you guys make an API? I want to incorporate skate music into an app and I was having to scrape the site to get videos/tracks.

On another note, I can also help make said API. DM me if interested.

We were in talks of making an app with someone about a year or two ago but ultimately it fell through.
It's something we've talked about in the past, just haven't committed to executing.
If you're seriously interested, I can put you in touch with everyone you need.
