     Octopus4 follows the groundbreaking debut Polymorphic Code, a 
     record that redefined crossover music for the 21st century 
     winning The Algorithm the Best Underground Act award at the 
     Metal Hammer Golden Gods and creating huge demand for worldwide 
     touring. Mastermind Remi Gallego and prodigious young drummer 
     Mike Malyan (of Monuments fame) have gone on to destroy venues 
     and stages across the globe

  bio    : |
     The Algorithm is Rmi Gallego, an electronic music composer
     from Toulouse, Midi-Pyrnes, France. Born October 7, 1989,
     he began releasing music under this name in 2009 following the
     dissolution of his former band Dying Breath. It's a fusion of
     several styles of electronic music with progressive metal,
     mathcore, and djent. For live performances, he uses an
     Akai APC40, a MIDI controller produced by the company Akai,
     co-developed with the German company Ableton, connected to
     a laptop running Ableton Live. He initially sought to form a
     mathcore band, taking inspiration from The Dillinger Escape Plan,
     but after a futile search for band members, with the help of
     his guitar and a digital audio workstation, he began producing
     his own music. The debut Algorithm releases were the demos The
     Doppler Effect and CRITICAL.ERROR, released for free via his
     own website in December 2009 and July 2010 respectively. In
     October 2011 he appeared at the Euroblast Festival in Cologne
     alongside bands such as Textures, TesseracT, and Vildhjarta. A
     month later Mike Malyan, the drummer of Monuments, uploaded a
     drum cover of Isometry to YouTube. After seeing this, Gallego
     was convinced that it would be possible to play his songs on
     a real drum kit and Malyan became his live drummer. Gallego
     stated, Before he put his Isometry drum cover online, one
     year ago, I had no idea that someone could ever play my drum
     programmings with such dedication, musicality and tightness. He
     was really thrilled to play live with me and so we decided
     to make it happen. I cant be more happy to work with such
     a great friend/musician. In the same month, The Algorithm
     signed to British label Basick Records. In January 2012, The
     Algorithm released the digital single Tr0jans. It was followed by
     appearances in festivals such as Djentival in Karlsruhe, Germany,
     as well as the UK Tech-Metal Fest held in Alton. On November 19,
     2012, the debut album Polymorphic Code was released. On June 17,
     2013 The Algorithm received a Metal Hammer Golden God award
     as best underground artist, decided by Metal Hammer readers'
     votes. The Algorithm released its second album, OCTOPUS4, on June
     2, 2014. The track _MOS is the first ever collaboration between
     Mike Malyan and Rmi Gallego on an album and is, according
     to Gallego, the result of a mutual love for old-school C64
     sounds.

  news: |
    Hi chaps! This is the new retrofuturistic "back to the future" 
    obso-leet AMOK nfo hybridising oldskool ASCII art and YAML.
    As a possible first in the scene (is it really?), we provide an nfo 
    that is designed to be both human and machine readable.
    It is not so interesting for the average joe ripper listener but it
    will be a useful tool for siteops, nukers, dupedb and archives 
    curators.
    Why this?
    Because we need a structure that can support metadata and UTF8.
    As years pass, dirnames are getting stuffed with more and more 
    metadata. It is impossible to parse 100% reliably because dirnames
    are just not designed to be storage for heterogenous metadata.
    With id3v2, vorbis and .yml.nfo files, we can fix this problem,
    we can have a more reliable dupechecking, automate common tasks,
    filter and sort releases based on different metadata, such as 
    label and have more useful subgenres e.g. acid techno, deep house, 
    djent...
    With .yml.nfo, you do not need read access to the media files and 
    id3 metadata, you can automate mandatory fields checks (eg. source
    codec, purchase url) 
    nfo files supporting the yaml format should have the extension 
    .yml.nfo 
    e.g. 00-alice-bob-cd-2018.yml.nfo 
    The schema_version tag allows that nfo format to evolve and stay
    compatible.  The current schema will be published in the near 
    future to make sure all .yml.nfo released will use the same 
    structure and set of keys.
  schema_version: 0.0.5
