Website of the week

www.pandora.com

Type: Customizeable radio station

Purpose: Total sw33tn3ss

How it works: Input an artist, and it forms a customized radiostation of artists with similar traits. You will be hard pressed to stump this site, it is linked to music genome project so it has a massive library. Underneath the currently playing song is a description of the music and why it was picked. The music is sorted by such traits as instrumentation, rythmic and syncapation, melody, vocals and a host of other things. I have no idea how it works so thoroughly and have been impressed so far.

Big heap thanks to fellow acoustician Dan Valente for pointing me to this website
