Islands of Music representing a 7x7 SOM with 77 pieces of music. The artists and full titles of which are represented by the short identifiers here, can be found on the web page or in the thesis. 5. CONCLUSION The Islands of Music have not yet reached a level which would suggest their commerci however, they demonstrate the possibility of such systems and serve well as a tool fo research. Any part of the system can be modified or replaced and the resulting effects c Fig. IV GenreGram 5. USER INTERFACES Two new graphical user interfaces for browsing and interacting with collections of audio signals have been developed (Figure IV,V) . They are based on the extracted feature vectors and the automatic genre classification results. • GenreGram is a dynamic real-time audio display for showing automatic genre classification results. Each genre is represented as a cylinder that moves up and down in real Fig. V GenreSpace 6. FUTURE WORK An obvious direction for future research is to expand the hierarchy both in width and depth. The combinati segmentation [20] with automatic genre classification provide a way to browse audio to locate regions of in Another interesting direction is the combination of the gra user interfaces described with automatic similarity retriev takes into account the automatic genre classification. In its form the beat analysis algorithm can not be performed in re Musical Genres (Classical, Country…..) the combined set described in this paper was used.

Good news! We’re on the right track
We are a music application development platform that knows more about music content and music consumers than anyone.
The platform
You’re a music fan. How do you get to music? Or inversely, you’re a musician. How do you get to your fans?
Only 10 years ago - pretty terrible. Buy a thing or borrow it.
5 years ago - a little better. Easier to self publish and discover.
Today.The choices for distribution are immense.
App developers are now the future of the music business.
Good news: thousands of developers working on music. Bad news: most have been locked out of the business.
Until now!

Islands of Music representing a 7x7 SOM with 77 pieces of music. The artists and full titles of which are represented by the short identifiers here, can be found on the web page or in the thesis. 5. CONCLUSION The Islands of Music have not yet reached a level which would suggest their commerci however, they demonstrate the possibility of such systems and serve well as a tool fo research. Any part of the system can be modified or replaced and the resulting effects c Fig. IV GenreGram 5. USER INTERFACES Two new graphical user interfaces for browsing and interacting with collections of audio signals have been developed (Figure IV,V) . They are based on the extracted feature vectors and the automatic genre classification results. • GenreGram is a dynamic real-time audio display for showing automatic genre classification results. Each genre is represented as a cylinder that moves up and down in real Fig. V GenreSpace 6. FUTURE WORK An obvious direction for future research is to expand the hierarchy both in width and depth. The combinati segmentation [20] with automatic genre classification provide a way to browse audio to locate regions of in Another interesting direction is the combination of the gra user interfaces described with automatic similarity retriev takes into account the automatic genre classification. In its form the beat analysis algorithm can not be performed in re Musical Genres (Classical, Country…..) the combined set described in this paper was used.
