Echonest lets the MIR-cat out of the bag

Friday, February 1st, 2008

We - the Music Information Retrieval geeks- have been eagerly waiting to see what Brian Whitman has been hacking out at Echonest. Few days ago they launched a bunch of impressive demos based on their audio analysis tools. As a frequent reader of Paul’s and Elias’ blogs I stumbled over their postings after having been offline for some while. As always Brian and his guys included an excellent sense of humour! Their webservice is a most to check out! But if you dont want to depend on services you have to do it on your own. My brandnew master thesis student has to go ahead!
