"similar-sounding music" is indeed a good way to put it. 120 millions ! This is awesome!
Reminds me of https://cyanite.ai/ (Search by audio). I will have to give it more time, but so far, I like your results better. Well done!

#12Wow, these songs were impressively similar to my queries. I would love for a interpolation playlist feature, where I put in 2 different songs (from say, classic rock and EDM), and I could get 10-20 songs that slowly change from the start song to the end song.
Yes, this: can you get any interesting insights by playing with the embedding vectors? What happens if you add embeddings together? Weighted average of multiple tracks? Follow the average vector for an artist's work over time?

#13Fun, but unfortunately it is pretty off for me compared to Spotify and Apple Music. I wouldn't listen to any of the recs personally. I do appreciate how out there the recommendations are though! They're just amateurish for my tastes.

#14Curious, did you just get the album/song lists from iTunes and get the corresponding raw music audio from other sources or does iTunes really allow one user account to download the raw audio of 120M songs?

#15How did you download that many songs? Wouldn't that be something on the order of 360 terabytes?

I guess he is working with the 30s low rez previews, I know you can download them with the Spotify API. Apple Music should be similar.

#19I tried it, I think the vibe match looks great, but the match lacks the culture context. It would be great to use song's meta data and lyrics to to improve that
