You would first have to either find a Python library to talk these LEDs protocols (I am not able to implement support myself) or get support added in in the current library https://github.com/jgarff/rpi_ws281x - which is barely maintained beyond the occasional contributions so I don't think you will get very far.

Sorry, but I haven't got the time, hardware or ability to write custom drivers for these chips.

I have no recommendation of LED strips generally, since I buy them directly from China for the cheapest rates at the time.

You can get the branded 'Neopixels', but these tend to be more expensive for the same thing.

I have success with WS2812 LEDs, but any of WS2811, WS2812 or SK6812 LEDs should work with this project.
