Arduino Project : Music Based Diwali lighting.

Hello All,
I want to design a circuit to control music based Diwali lighting using arduino. I tried searching google and most of the example did this using some electronic devices. I want to achieve this more by writing program less by ready made devices.
i have divided this project into two module
- parsing music bits
- passing parsed bits to LEDs
Any one have idea how proceed further on this ?, or any suggestion ?

Roughly, you need an ADC and hook up the mic to it. Once you've the digital signal, you can turn on/off LED based on the thresholds. Shouldn't ve really a very difficult. If you've a single LED, assuming you connect it to a gpio, you can realize this project with a single microcontroller which has ADC like Atmega or Pic.
Ofcourse if you want lots of LEDs to be controlled, you'll have to build an LED driver.

Elaborate on the idea given you by @Prototype.
There must be all sorts of such projects on the net.
