Description
Summary:Music is one of the forms of culture that have exists in the human civilizations since millenniums ago. Emergence of a new era, the growth of technologies, and human’s creativity results in the creation of many variants of music. In fact, it is so variant that people start to create a new term called genre to classify music. However, this classification is done by human in a subjective manner. Occasional dispute and disagreement regarding a genre of a certain song occurs between both layman or musical experts. This issue sprouts an idea to categorize music in an objective way instead of a subjective one. In order to do that, experiment will be done to group a set of similar music content by their audio characteristics. Using a dataset of music that have been sound processed beforehand, the dataset will have its audio characteristics in a quantitative value. This audio characteristics will be used to group similar songs together in a cluster using K-means clustering algorithm. Humans tends to determine a genre of a certain music by the atmosphere or the vibe when they hear the music. Hypothetically, the audio characteristics take part in building that atmosphere. Therefore, this research will attempt to prove if grouping a set of songs into clusters depending on their audio characteristics and whether the genre labelling made by human is accurate enough. Moreover, the clustering model will also be used to build a recommender system that will output music with the closest distance in the same cluster in relation to the input.
