• Title: HouseX: A Fine-grained House Music Dataset and its Potential in the Music Industry
• Authors: Xinyu Li
• Abstract summary: We have collected and annotated a dataset of house music that provide four sub-genre labels, namely future house, bass house, progressive house and melodic house. We have built baseline models that classify the sub-genre based on the mel-spectrograms of a track, achieving strongly competitive results.

• Abstract: Machine sound classification has been one of the fundamental tasks of music technology. A major branch of sound classification is the classification of music genres. However, though covering most genres of music, existing music genre datasets often do not contain fine-grained labels that indicate the detailed sub-genres of music. In consideration of the consistency of genres of songs in a mixtape or in a DJ (live) set, we have collected and annotated a dataset of house music that provide 4 sub-genre labels, namely future house, bass house, progressive house and melodic house. Experiments show that our annotations well exhibit the characteristics of different categories. Also, we have built baseline models that classify the sub-genre based on the mel-spectrograms of a track, achieving strongly competitive results. Besides, we have put forward a few application scenarios of our dataset and baseline model, with a simulated sci-fi tunnel as a short demo built and rendered in a 3D modeling software, with the colors of the lights automated by the output of our model.

  We are investigating the broader concept of using AI-based generative music systems to generate training data for Music Information Retrieval tasks. We constructed over 50 000 genre- conditioned textual descriptions and generated a collection of music excerpts that covers five musical genres. Preliminary results show that the proposed model can learn genre-specific characteristics from artificial music tracks that generalise well to real-world music recordings.

  We introduce the Music Audio Representation Benchmark for universaL Evaluation, termed MARBLE. It aims to provide a benchmark for various Music Information Retrieval (MIR) tasks by defining a comprehensive taxonomy with four hierarchy levels, including acoustic, performance, score, and high-level description. We then establish a unified protocol based on 14 tasks on 8 public-available datasets, providing a fair and standard assessment of representations of all open-sourced pre-trained models developed on music recordings as baselines.

  Symbolic music generation aims to create musical notes, which can help users compose music. We introduce a framework known as GETMusic, with GET'' standing for GEnerate music Tracks'' GETScore represents musical notes as tokens and organizes tokens in a 2D structure, with tracks stacked vertically and progressing horizontally over time. Our proposed representation, coupled with the non-autoregressive generative model, empowers GETMusic to generate music with any arbitrary source-target track combinations.
