Grabbing More Tracks (i.e. Audio Features + Audio Analysis) #3

In order to have some really rich recommendations, I think the size of the recommender should be increased substantially.

Currently, there's a little over 22,000 tracks indexed. These tracks represent the Top 10 songs from every artist indexed within the recommender from Spotify on 10/05/2018.

I'd like to go ahead and pull the complete catalogue for each of these artists. That would involve grabbing every song from those artists not currently indexed from the Spotify API, though both the "Audio Features" and "Audio Analysis" endpoints.

It's likely that this particular task is too ambitious for the time being, though it might be possible. I'll definitely need to grab some additional EC2 disk space in order to do so, however.

I've since grabbed the complete spotify catalogs of each artist indexed within the songwriter graph as of early Jan 2019. That means we'll need to expand the breadth of tracks that are incorporated within the model. Currently thinking about grabbing each weeks' new releases, and looking at popular legacy artists from niche genres
