I'm going down a similar road as me. Liquidsoap can do some of what you ask
pretty easily, but other things are a little more complicated. You may just
want to store your song meta data in a database and write your own track
rotation logic. Liquidsoap calsl out to a script that returns a file path,
and the choice of what to play next is made by the script.
