Can You Classify What Makes Music Good? (Dec 11 2003 19:15 GMT) - About the time I was starting Techdirt, a friend of mine started a company called Mongo Music. I remember getting lunch and hanging out in his living room, which was doubling as his office (surrounded by stacks and stacks of CDs) as he explained the concept. He was going to build up a huge database of music, and use people to define all the various characteristics of the song to identify "that thang" that made music catchy. The idea was that this information was objectively identifiable, and if you liked one song, Mongo's database would point out other songs that matched it on all the characteristics that were measured. It was an interesting idea - but I wasn't convinced "that thang" was objectively identifiable. |
