The Music Genome Project
On January 6, 2000 a group of musicians and music-loving technologists came together with the idea of creating the most comprehensive analysis of music ever.
Together we set out to capture the essence of music at the most fundamental level. We ended up assembling literally hundreds of musical attributes or "genes" into a very large Music Genome. Taken together these genes capture the unique and magical musical identity of a song - everything from melody, harmony and rhythm, to instrumentation, orchestration, arrangement, lyrics, and of course the rich world of singing and vocal harmony. It's not about what a band looks like, or what genre they supposedly belong to, or about who buys their records - it's about what each individual song sounds like.
Over the past 6 years, we've carefully listened to the songs of over 10,000 different artists - ranging from popular to obscure - and analyzed the musical qualities of each song one attribute at a time. This work continues each and every day as we endeavor to include all the great new stuff coming out of studios, clubs and garages around the world.
It has been quite an adventure, you could say a little crazy - but now that we've created this extraordinary collection of music analysis, we think we can help be your guide as you explore your favorite parts of the music universe.
We hope you enjoy the journey.

Μια τρελη ιδεα, οπως βλεπετε που οδηγησε σε κατι πραγματικα επαναστατικο: ενα ταξιδι εξερευνησης της μουσικης.
Το Pandora -που ειναι ουσιαστικα το front end του Music genome project- σου δινει την ευκαιρια να κανεις ταξιδια στην μουσικη. Ξεκινας απο ενα σημειο, πχ REM και καταληγεις να εξερευνεις μουσικα τοπια που δεν ειχες ιδεα οτι υπαρχουν...
Δεν ειναι ευκολο να περιγραφει ολο αυτο, οποτε καλυτερα δειτε το απο μονοι σας.

Τωρα πλεον εμενα προσωπικα η μουσικη συλλογη μου -παροτι τεραστια (60,000+ κομματια)- μου φαινεται να με περιοριζει... :rolleyes: :lol:
