You probably would have a much lighter solution using option
CURLOPT_APPEND.

I did not run your program, but from reading the code, it seems you
effectively download the root directory. I mean you call
download(...REMOTE_URL...) which is the server name only
(ftp://orangesquirrels.com) while you probably intended to download
ftp://orangesquirrels.com/musiclist.txt.

Try using

download(DATABASE_FILE, "musiclist.txt", REMOTE_URL "/"
REMOTE_DATABASE_FILE, "Testing 123");

And in any case, check the content of the local file before uploading...

Although this is not the cause of your problem, please also note that
curl_global_init()/curl_global_cleanup() should normally be called once:
I suggest you do this in the main program.
